let's decorate & cause drama | ACNH 

you inviting raymond to make kyle feel bad is giving me flashbacks to when you invited pierce to make goose feel bad. interested to see if raymond can stay relevant here in the cutthroat environment of molokai 👀

"you know her, you love her, you mourn her" literally needs to be on the sign you see before entering molokai

Calling it now: Kyle's going to try to win her back New Years Eve. There's going to be fireworks, a drunken night of passion, and suddenly Shino's evil twin autofills when Raymond decides to go on the road to be a backup dancer for MCR. 2023 is going to be Molokai's YEAR.

I’m a classics major so I’m legally obligated to tell the story of Icarus: Daedalus was a brilliant inventor who was commissioned by the king of Create Midas to build the Labyrinth to imprison the Minotaur ( who has a few different origin stories, but basically his wife banged a magic bull). After the Minotaur was trapped, Midas would send sacrifices into the labyrinth for the Minotaur to eat, and would eventually get the King of Athens to send these sacrifices for him. Since the whole point of the labyrinth was that no one could escape Midas trapped Daedalus in his castle since he was the only person who knew how to escape, his son Icarus was trapped just because. Daedalus didn’t really want to be trapped so he began collecting feathers and candle wax so he could construct two pairs of wings for he and Icarus to escape Create by flying out the window of their room. After many years Daedalus managed to construct the wings and get them to work so he and Icarus could finally escape. Before the flew out Daedalus told Icarus to be careful not to fly too close to the sun, because if he did the wax would melt and he would fall into the ocean ( don’t have hubris cuz the gods will strike your ass down). They fly out and Icarus is so happy about finally being free after being a prisoner his whole life, and is so hyped about being a human who’s defying nature by flying that he keeps flying higher and higher. He eventually gets to close to the sun and his wings melt, and he falls into the ocean and drowns. Daedalus is horrifically depressed for the rest of his life.

With you on the true crime recreations, it always reminds me of this crochet group I was in on Facebook and someone asked what everyone's "favorite serial killer" was so they could add it to their true crime blanket. Ick.

I am definitely far from one of those brainless folks you speak of in the video, but I'm really happy to have you speak on how so many people think the recreation and romanticism of very real tragedies is okay.

It’s gonna sound weird but I made imaginary friends in middle school LMAO I WAS LONELY. Now as an adult I do illustrations and I still draw them to this day. They’re like my children 🗿🌸

I feel like every single New Year's day. We all get together to look back on last year Molokai. And rate all the scandals that took place that year 💕

I’m so glad Pierce is getting his flowers in this episode. He’s one of my favorite characters.

ugh i love seeing your video pop up right as i’m trying to avoid doing work 😩❤

Amanda, you gave turned this game into something Nintendo never intended or anticipated it to be, I _love_ it.

let me just tell you how much I appreciate your videos and you as a person, you never fail to make me laugh (hence why I rewatch every single one of your videos like 10 times lmao) and I am sooooo excited everytime you upload thank you for doing what you're doing Amanda, sending you lots of love from Germany ☺

My favorite comfort RU-vidr 🥰 your videos bring me so much relief from anxiety and give me a laugh. I can’t thank you enough

I'm 35 and I still remember my imaginary friend. Her name was Summer. Summer had a bad cousin whose name was Stormy. Stormy tried to drown Summer but her pet sea lion saved her. I don't remember what they looked like.

I remember I had a cat named Sassy as an imaginary friend, a brown cat with blue stripes. There were a whole bunch of cats with different colored stripes but I unfortunately don't remember all their names. I also apparently had twin imaginary friends, a boy and a girl, both named Nancy. And then a murderer imaginary friend because I was terrified someone was going to climb through my window to kill me and I figured I needed a scarier killer on my side to take out the first one.

Mad respect to Chris

Amanda how did you know that I needed this. I just told someone my feelings for them for the first time ever in my life and I'm lowkey panicking but it's okay because my life is nothing compared to the trials and tribulations of Animal Crossing villagers :D

I clearly remember when I was 4-6 years old I had an imaginary HUSBAND. Not boyfriend, husband. I remember so many things I made up about him, like when we got married, we had 10 kids, one time he got hit by a bus. 😀 Yeah I was a dramatic little kid too. (HE WAS OKAY YOU GUYS!) but I cannot remember his name. Like I have no clue what his name was. I think it started with S maybe? But yeah, I was just like that as a little kid too.

“I’m reading the kind of stuff you wouldn’t want your name attached to.” Lol I had a bunch of that printed out and stashed under my bed when I was a teen. Lol. See, this is why I like watching your channel, Amanda. 😂

YAYAYAY this is exactly what I needed to get out of this dumb depression bed. Thank you for the perfect distraction

The Moment Sherb turned on the Chainsaw was such a perfect rng moment.

I’m in the pit with you, girl 😂 I also have all the killjoys as clothing options, and I fall back on party poison regularly when I can’t decide what to wear...I tried to recreate some of the tour costumes too, I’m such a disaster 😆

i need a pacthesis-esque game with amanda’s imaginary friends.. if u want an artist to make that reality i would volunteer 👀

TheWifeFiles.

waiting for raymond and kyle to fall for each other lol

Chris sounds like the coolest dolphin ever.

Amanda I need you to know that the entire Sonic the Hedgehog cast were my imaginary friends growing up. I would have full conversations with Sonic and Knuckles and Amy and-

WAKE UP BABE AMANDA POSTED GOD BLESS 😩❤️

I have Bob and he talks about bugs too so I gave him a corner to study bugs with a degree on the wall so I could pretend he was talking about those

i miss my imaginary friends its been like 20 years but ducky and elsa if you're out there come back 🥺

In conclusion; Chris the dolphin is a real homie and deserves all the love

So many imaginary friends, my favourite was robin hood, the fox from the Disney movie. I'd ring the doorbell to our apartment and be like 'hey robin we are coming in' also had a boy called witchy, that I don't remember. Which is weird because I remember all of them accept him. He scared my mum

All the imaginary friends discourse in this video and comments section makes me so happy for reasons I can’t fully articulate ❤

Controversial take but it’s a fine line between love and hate - there’s still a lot of feelings about Goose even if they are hate, it’s passionate and even when you were happy with Kyle you still were keeping an eye on him and shocked by Shino and Goose. Keeping him around could give him ideas and he’s thinking there’s a chance now Kyle has messed up. You’ve been nicer to him recently too so in this new era be careful! 😂😂😂

this is perfect timing amanda! i was just watching old videos while I work and then got this notif, thank you universe!!

you ever love something so much you save it for later, thats what i do with Amanda videos she is just goals like she's instantly iconic every time she speaks i love her shes hilarious

Day 1 of asking Amanda to give Chief a bf because he deserves one

Waiting for Amanda to talk about Joan of Arc Gerard 😈

Amanda never dissapoints❤️

"you know her, you love her, you mourn her" English ppl be like

Love seeing you in your single era. Kyle definitely doesn't deserve you right now.

I go to work at around one in the morning on Wednesdays and I love this series more than anything. Thank you for posting this just in time for a shift I'm not looking forward to. I needed this

I know you were kidding but I was in Ethiopia and in the capital there's a church you can go where exorcisms are still performed and pretty often. it was rly interesting! love Ethiopia sm. anyway thanks for the vid

the peeks into your mind are my favorite thing… ive been laughing about Icarus becoming evil at night for ages… please share more😭

Oh my GOD you snapped SO FUCKING HARD on Reneigh's house, I literally cannot even believe how absolutely stunning it is. You gave her the emo mansion she deserves

I loved how you designed Pierce's house l. It looks nice. Honestly I feel like Bing Bong's death was just written in to make people cry, which worked. I know I couldn't stop crying at that part either As for Riley forgetting Bing Bong, I don't believe she meant to forget him, Bing Bong sacrificed himself to help Joy and Sadness. It was horrible that he was forgotten, and deserved to be remembered, but Riley had a lot on her mind with a lot going on at the time. Also I am not really sure if she can just control what gets forgotten or remembered, similar to how she didn't really have full control of he emotions, just like the rest of us. Nobody means to forget or lose control of our emotions but we do. I feel that's just a part of being alive.

I'm so glad you're finally embracing chief as the gay icon he is.

I remember being such a lonely kid (it was physically painful I remember being sad and physically feeling it in my chest) I once tried to create an imaginary friend, it just didn’t work for me, I was even more sad about not having friends after that 😂 never understood the imaginary friend thing, is my point

Omg yesss it’s a rainy cozy day this could not be timed any better

Omg yes Chief is a gay Cowboy now and you can‘t convince me otherwise

Omg I also had an Icarus. Mine resembled a cat, though, who would just stare at me and then disappear again when I made “eye contact”. Never named them, but also never forgot them. And it wasn’t my cat lol I could see through their eyes to the wall behind them.

Omg not Goosetopher trying to put it back on you now that he knows you’re single 😂🤢

13:57 growing up, I hated Theres a Wocket in my Pocket because that Woset in the Closet scared the shit out of me

16:00 Goose knows you are behind the murder of Shino. So he's trying to find evidence of the crime at your place

Got Sherb on my island for the first time... And like I thought Amanda just got a cursed Sherb plus playing up how sinister he was, but literally his first two gifts to me were a Freddy Krueger sweater and then a knife set😭😭😭 (plus talking about bugs whispering in his ear LMAO) Like he really is just a cursed character in general lol

What a world we live in that you even had to give that psa. I mean I’m absolutely glad you did, but damn. Some people.

So much of what you say is my internal dialogue while playing this game , I play while listening to your videos and I legit respond out loud to some stuff you say as if you’re my friend over my house playing with me 😂😭 none of my friends play!! And so many of the stories you tell I can relate to SO HARD it cracks me up!! I’m also obsessed with humpback whales and other marine creatures / animals and I sing too/break out into song while I play the game like you do 🤣 we listen to all the same music & we both just had baby girls too! So basically you’re my best friend I don’t know.😂👏🏽Youre like my adult imaginary friend LMAO . Thank you for making this content !! ❤ Sending love and good vibes from Jersey !

I never had imaginary friends and I'm actually a little envious - it sounds like a rich and wonderful world! We need an artist's rendition of Chris and Icarus. Though to be fair, Icarus sounds kind of terrifying.

Nah cause I'm not the only one who was waiting for Sherbs home to be redone 😭😭😭

I still have imaginary friends but one from childhood I lost long ago was Archibald the seahorse (Edit) I just remembered the oldest imaginary friend and first to ever leave me. Christina the owl, an owl with pink wings and blue belly feathers. I miss Christina every day

I’ve been having such a rough week so thank you for the free therapy Amanda :>

I WAS JUST THINKING ABT HOW I ALWAYS MISS UR VIDEOS BY LIKE 2 WEEKS THIS IS SO FUNNY i love ur content pls never stop

49:05 OMGGGG THAT CHEST OF DRAWERS!!! I’ve never seen that before but I NEED it! 😭

Raymond twirling his hair and asking if Kyle is single

Raymond is like the little emo brother of amanda :,D

NEW VIDEO IN MY TIME OF NEED YOU HAVE BLESSED ME AMANDA

Why is Raymond with the striped shirt give me "The Sims thief" vibes? Haha xD

also, Chief's house looks so good, killed it on that one

Local woman goes insane making headcanons between npcs. More at 11.

OKAY but when I tell you I had the most heartbreaking moment the other day when I realized I couldn't remember the name of my imaginary friend anymore,,,,, like I know he existed and was my best friend, but his name and face are just, gone outta my brain, like one day I thought of his name for the last time and now it's GONE and it's left me in shambles, hearing such detailed descriptions of ur imaginary besties is so good, never forget them 😭😭😭😭

I was just hoping for a new episode!!! Thank you girlie!!!

As a kid I always wanted imaginary friends but as an also autistic kid I always knew they weren’t real and they would never last

I agree with you on Chief being gay, but to be honest he always gave me like, east coast 'my family is rich and we go yachting', went to harvard, and homophobic gay dude.

minding my business watching this video having a great time and i hear the word unholyverse

congrats on bein a mum and a mom!

The pictures on Sherb's wall are his past victims, but also his future ones

so happy when Amanda posts

I do get it to with the bridesmaids dresses. It's just sitting in my wardrobe, it's gotta be worn

32:50 Maybe you watched back to the future as a kid? Doc Brown's dog was called Einstein I'm pretty sure, if not then that's spooky as hell

i love it when amanda causes problems on purpose /gen!!!! LMFAO

I also had an imaginary friend that I talked to all the time and he looked like the boy version of Lizzie McGuire’s alter ego 😭 and it really hit home when u said u play with them one last time cause that’s so true but I do think about him Regarding Icarus, I had sleep paralysis as a kid so your events x10 😭

You are so funny I love your videos ☺Like your thoughts are what all Animal Crossing players think when playing. Speaking from experience lol love your content girl!

This was a real good one real lore heavy we LOVE TO SEE

Hello! You can design more than one house a day. I've done 2 or 3 in a day. Thank you for your videos! 🤗

bestie you uploaded at the perfect time, i just got home from work 🤍

life: 💀 when amanda uploads:💗😁😁😁💗🥰🥰🥰

raymond the scene kid defo listens to besitos from pierce the veil

I'm here for Chief being the Sassy Gay on the island xD

“I always loved to have a situation going on” you don’t say? 😂 some things never change and neither should you Amanda

I was just trying to watch a video about Amimal Crossing and immediately got told to go to the church to get an exorcism (i know an exorcist in real life lmao)

Omg yay! So happy for a new video! 🖤🖤🖤

the title is really relatable

I can't believe you spent 10 minutes talking about your childhood schizophrenic hallucinations

Gay cowboy Chief… we’ve no choice but to stan

Amanda thinking Chief is gay reminded me of her wanting to invite Ken so Goose gets a boyfriend.

no bc that one page in There's a Wocket in My Pocket where there was an ominous lump under the carpet and the kid had to walk by on tiptoes used to scare me so bad as a kid

oh my god as soon as you mentioned Chris and playing with him for the last time, my first thought was Bing-Bong from inside out😢

I’ve always liked to pretend that the animals in the small cages and terrariums are actually realistic robots that are just programmed the move around a little because I don’t like the thought that they’re real

32:48 Did you ever watch back to the future when you were a kid? There’s a dog in that movie named Einstein.

SWEEPING SUMI STYLE 😂😭
