going into this i was expecting just a simple haul video but i ended up watching something i can relate to at this time in my life thank you generic stud
Dude, this video was kinda touching. I’m a College student as well, so I know how it feels like to have those dark moments in life. And it’s nice to hear how Jesus saved you. We all need help in life. These Lego sets, as fun as they are, are just things. True happiness comes from having those who love you be there for you. Although having Cole’s Titan Mech does bring some joy in life
This video proves you are the best RU-vidr, the way you integrate your top tier humor, while also having that sense of relatability and the fact you’re not afraid to go deep with your videos. Thanks for producing this truly masterful work for all of us to enjoy. You are the goat, God Bess
generic stud, growing up I also had the same issue as you. Everyone telling me to grow up and to get rid of my old legos and I donated some of it and even sold some, not because I didn't want them anymore, but because there are other people in the world that need it more than me. I always had an issue fitting in and it was hard for me to find a group that can accept me for who I truly am. I am also a devout Christian and attend church every single week because I know that even with all of this loneliness in this earth, we can still find soluce in the hands of god. Ive been watching you since you were at 2k subscribers I believe so I've followed you since you were 16. I am so proud of you generic and you serve to me and to many as a huge inspiration. I always saw you as the lego friend that I never had, I really needed to hear that. And to those wondering, lives to short for you to care about what others think. I still play with legos and I'm very open about it with my giant republic army for star wars and my goal to collect every single kai lego minifig. Never forget who you are, and thank you so much for showing me that I'm not alone.
I feel the same way. My dad wants me to get rid of legos. Though I got the Lego sets I want, he still wanted me to get rid of it. Hearing your message in this video was heart warming.I may not be Christian, but the lord should be with you. You deserve happiness and a good life. Hope reach 1 million subscribers. I feel for you man.
Damn that last part really got to me as someone who is going into year 13 in September and is dreading going to uni in just over a year from now and has been struggling with mental health issues since the end of COVID. Glad you found the help and support you need
I really was not expecting this video to in the end hit so hard, I really could relate to the things you said and I'm so happy to hear that in the end you found the path that you were searching for.
I am in tears this way too emotional I remember my dad always buying lego sets and just watchin tv on the carpet while building was just one of my favourite activities and he still buys me lego to this day I love him and my mom too much and I am scared to grow up😭😭😭
That ending hits me with the power of Lego so close to home thanks for reminding me of all the great times I had with my parents who are the greatest people in the world. Thank you stud… truly
I am a 22-year-old Catholic, I've also found it difficult to integrate the many different facets of my life, I'm the only practicing Christian in my home, and in uni I've even lost some friends because of it, and often books and Lego are what I go to when I'm stressed out. So I was astonished when you talked about being a Christian too, and it just filled me with so much hope. God bless you and your family, and keep up the good work! You really are on of the greats 👑
I think we’ve all felt like this and are or have been in the same boat. All of us Lego lovers are very connected to our childhood and every set we buy is like a constant reminder of when we got sets as children. It’s like you said, you can buy sets now you couldn’t afford then and then you’re in a constant state of nostalgia. Like watching ninjago and then thinking about the older seasons and watching those as a kid. Going back to reality and seeing that life isn’t like that anymore and that it is in fact much harder is a difficult realisation. On top of that not everyone (definitely at uni) isn’t as supportive and understanding of a Lego obsession like some of us have. They may see it as childish and try to fit us into a stereotypical adolescent. The feeling of wanting to fit in with the crowd is big when you find yourself in a new situation with new people. It’s a sense of coping. Some people let go of their hobby and embrace a ‘fake’ persona, some people decide to just stick to their true self and some are still deciding. It’s a hard world and a hard time but know that you’re not alone.
Wow. Just Wow. I did absolutley not expect that ending, well done. As someone who has been watching your vids for a while this is amazing to see. Everytime I see you upload one of these were you buy all the sets it's crazy and trying to grab on to that childhood protection and innocence was the same thing I did and keep doing when I buy a lego set but nowadays I don't really feel that same spark as I did when I was a kid, I think none of us really do anymore, time is the one thing that is so abundant but yet we have so little of it. As time passes we learn to change even if it is the hardest thing to do now I build my lego sets with the thought that I should display them just like a memory from my childhood and cherish them and keep coming back to them and dusting them of etc. Our childhood is the most important time in our lives but also the shortest, so for anyone that is still young, cherish your moments with your parents and friends and for everyone else, like me, who are already older try and dust of your Lego and those memory's and look in the life of someone that could dream up anything build anything. I know we shouldn't live in our past to much but sometimes it is just the thing that you need to take a break have some fun and most importantly Be Happy. Generic Stud, Thank you for making me and many others relive thier childhoods in these video's and keep making more of these video's man your'e doing great
This video is deep man. I’m so happy to hear that you turned your life to god, I did the same a year ago. Learning to cherish what really makes us happy sooner than later is better than any amount of money in this world. Stay close to god man, rooting for you
As someone who has gained so much laughter from your jokes over the years, and so much emotion from this video, I thank you, especially for the message at the end, it was very impactful, keep the faith brother👍
Why did the ending actually make me sad and rethink my life for a solid 30 minutes I’ve been growing away and away from my parents all I ask of yall just give your parents a hug
I didn’t realize we were around the same age. I just finished my first year in college and it was really hard for me too. I hope you’re doing better now man, been watching you for a long while now and I always appreciate the content.
Bro, this was unexpected, this video was amazing jack, thank you for sharing your story with us. You are one of the only youtubers who have actually ticked all the boxes, good, creative, funny, kind, real and loves Lego. God bless man!
I’m so glad you’ve found happiness, I may not be Christian, but I respect you so much, i hope you live a happy life. Also great video hopefully I’ll get Cole’s mech soon
God is good! Loved all Your other videos but this one hit home for me to man. Struggling with growing up and clinging to childhood. The lord has a plan for us all! Much love
Holy cow man… I’m still growing up and this hit me so hard. I’ve been feeling the same a little. I remember a few years ago maybe in like 2018, I got a Lego set, it was a hulk Buster mech, I remember not knowing how to build it and my brother helping me, I built the minifigs and he built the mech. Now 6 years later, I’m 15 and my brother is on an LDS mission. I really hope, that life goes as well for me as it seems to be going for you. Keep going, you’re awesome.
As emotional as that other video of your Lego haul, where you talked about how we were also happy about Lego because it was special and we weren't getting new sets everyday. Jack has officially peaked with yet another video.
Wow I started to cry at the end as a fellow Lego RU-vidr this felt like a dream go watch a Lego video that hit deep and also just wow this was so deep.
With me being a big Christian and loving Lego ever since i was a young little lad i cant explain how much this video meant to me. Ngl when i first started watching you like maybe a month or so ago i was kinda wishing that you were Christian because you just gave good vibes. Thank you for the message at the end.
the ending gave me chills and showed me the true reality, everyone keeps telling me to grow up and stop playing with lego and other childish stuff, calling me corny and goofy, but I just wanna experience life how it was back then, simple, and fun. I'm not even that old I'm still a teenager and cant believe how quickly time flies. Thank you @GenericStud even if our religions and believes are different I still support you.
This new wave was definitely a crazy one. I definitely think all of these sets are honestly pretty cool and I love the figures in this wave So much! My four favorite have to be the Tournament Temple City, Tournament Temple Area, Source Dragon of Motion, and Cole’s Tian Dragons Mech. Great video!
