I think we need someone who is stuck in their way cuz we feel comfort every time we see them. As for me, this year is a zoo. Sometimes I have to skip or forget to watch some of your videos (Sorry about this.) And when I am able to come back here, I feel pretty calm, relax and comfy. Like I'm in the comfort zone reading viewers comments, watching Bob's cool lesson. Hey, they are still there!! It always motivates me 😉🌻💐 Changing is amazing but being stuck in one's way is not too bad. Thanks.
Yep, breaking out of a pattern is not an easy thing, Bob, especially when you've been used to doing things a certain way for a long time 😘. (Like you with your printed phrases here.) Even if the alternatives may seem faster, more practical or, let's say, more modern. I think you've simply developed your own dynamic and process over the course of your time here and despite alternative possibilities, it just works perfectly for you as it is ❤. Even though you like to try something new every now and then. Thanks a lot, Bob. Take care and have a lovely day. 🧍♂️🌳☀️
@@bobsshortenglishlessons Haha, oh yeah, it is definitely weatherproof. It has proven that many times.....just like the teacher in front of the camera, Bob 😘. You already answered all the comments here on Monday instead of Tuesday/Wednesday. I would say, now it is really (officially) noticeable that you have to be back in your school mode or school routine soon 👨🏫. Oh man, how quickly time flies. Thanks Bob, you're awesome. I wish you a wonderful Tuesday. 🌱☀️🍂❄️
@@bobsshortenglishlessons Just a quick reminder here, Bob. Since you mentioned on Friday that you wanted to mention again this week that the live lesson is on Thursday instead of Friday. 😘🫶😊
With the internet, knowledge is getting more democratic, and that is pretty good. The bad thing is that people don’t value knowledge as much as it needed to be valued. I was in a meeting some days ago, and a client said that people on the internet prefer entertainment instead of knowledge. That is true. A video with someone doing something stupid can reach more than someone teaching something useful. I would love to see each of your videos reach more than 1M as soon as they are posted, but you and I know that it is quite hard. Anyway, Thank you, Bob.
But there are some people who prefer watching education videos to entertaining ones. Definitely like us.😊 I'm glad that you're one of them. Have a nice weekend, Vitor.
I agree with you, Noriko. There are some people who prefer educational videos to entertainment videos. (And you two are definitely among them 😊). But Vitor has a good point. I also think, or let's say I also have the feeling that the general preferences are moving more and more towards entertainment. (Which is somehow a pity.) @Vitor: Yep, that would be really awesome to see each of Bob's videos reach more than 1M as soon as he posts them. 😎🏆 @both: Although I became a part of the community here later than you two, I say that it is nice that you two are one of them. Anyways, I wish you both a wonderful day/weekend. Take care. 🌱🌳🗺
Hi, Noriko! I always say that Bob is so much better than the other stuff we can find on the internet. He teaches us, builds awesome things, is kind, and the most important thing: he does sound effects. Bob is the whole package. 😆 Better later than never, Know That. Bob’s community without your presence and comments is not the same. We are glad to have you here. 😉 Thanks. Have a nice day both of you! 😊☀🍮
@@vitor00v Yep, I completely agree with you, Vitor. Bob is truly a gem 💎. I'm sure that he (as humble as he is) would not confirm this, but I think it's just a fact. I also think that he has a huge amount of experience in all areas of life and the fact that he shares this experience with us and passes them on to us, like a father does with his kids, is simply great 🍀. Thanks for your kind words, Vitor. Have a great day. See you. 👨💻🇧🇷📚
You are right. A video of a person falling can reach more people than a video of someone teaching something meaningful. Either way, for me, I enjoy making videos that a useful. I'm not sure I could make videos that just entertain. I wouldn't feel as fulfilled. 😎👕👍
I have never met you in person, Bob but I am sure that you are multi- talented and a fest learner too. Sometimes I get stuck on things , and then I will take a break to think about other ways to solve the problems. Have a nice weekend!
When I crossed my half a hundred line, I said "Loss of interest, not years is old age".Since then, I've kept it in my memory.😊 As for the books, I still look up in them something you can't find on RU-vid😉 Stay a young soul,RU-vidR number 1!🤝
@@noriko244 Noriko, my faraway friend!So glad to hear from you! Yeah, books seem more viable than all these modern bells 'n whistles, as far the history of mankind shows😁 IMHO... Even , if I seem a diehard (Stuck in my ways, as Bob says)😎🤣 Yeah, my summer is going SWELL! Though, too fast to my mind 🙂 How are things in the other part of the world? Hope you and your family are well!♥️♥️♥️
Thanks a lot for the lesson, Bob! As you get older, you get stuck in your ways; just as you become stiffer physically, you also become stiffer mentally and more narrow-minded unless you make a conscious effort to keep yourself flexible. - Viggo Mortensen
Hello, thanks for this video! To be stuck in its ways can mean someone is stubborn, isn't it? Some years ago, I heard a song which its title is "stuck in the middle (with you)". What does that mean? Have a nice day!
Yes, stuck in your ways reveals you are most likely stubborn. To be stuck in the middle depends on the song, but I expect it means you are in a life situation with someone and can't get out of it! 😎👕👍
I'm often stuck in my ways at work, which I see as a way to be efficient. By the way, the weather where you are is sunny and beautiful most of the time. Have a good day.
Hey Bob! (Usually I say "Mr. Bob" but I wanted it to be like the song!)😉 Anyways, what does "We're just spitballing here" mean? And is "throwing a softball" the opposite of "throwing a curveball?" Care to do a lesson on baseball related phrases, perhaps while sporting your Blue Jays cap and tee? So, what do you say Mr. Bob? Are you gonna play ball or what? 😆🧢
Dear Bob, how do you recycle these pieces of paper because earlier I thought it's new unused piece of paper everytime? By the way, can we relate phrase stuck in my ways to old habits die hard?
Thanx Bob, I think u r qualified for an actor maybe u should try act in a movie and I’m sure u’ll be funny and amazing coz u always know how to make us lough so why don’t u give it a try 😅
Everyone is stuck in their own ways in some matter - good/bad habits affect our lives. You did right when you checked out the way that chainsaw starts - it is one of the most dangerous tools in the world so be careful with it! I am waiting your live stream now so I say goodbye. Have a great weekend!
Yep. Very dangerous. I bought the special pants to wear as well as gloves and a helmet with eye and ear protection. I'll always be careful with it! 😎👕👍
Showing the papers in a lesson is an important attribute of your channel, please keep it. It makes your thumbnails standout in the mess RU-vid shows in the overview and it is just a bit more (old) school like.
