The Gray Speckled Walls Encroach: The Perks and Liabilities of Frequent Flying
In which John makes an old school vlogbrothers video from an airport. OBVIOUSLY I MADE THIS BEFORE WE HIT 1,000,000 SUBSCRIBERS. To celebrate, let’s get the nerdfighter kiva group to $2,000,000 in loans: http://www.kiva.org/invitedto/nerdfig…
Thanks to all of you for creating this amazing community with us. I feel so lucky to be a nerdfighter. Your commitment to increasing awesome and decreasing suck inspires me every day. DFTBA.
Congratulations Hank and John!
There were a lot of these to choose from to reblog, but I’m picking this one because the only other tab open is Fishing Boat Proceeds.
This is obviously a really huge feeling, something that doesn’t really make sense, but also feels perfectly natural…and of course totally impossible. John and I owe a lot to a lot of people. To each person who ever cared enough to subscribe, to share a video on facebook, to email one to a friend, to donate to the P4A, to make a video response, to comment, to rate our videos with five (now non-existant) stars. To try something new, to care about creators as well as creations. To want to be a part of something unusual and weird.
To every person who was a little too excited about Accio Deathly Hallows or who dragged their friend over to their computer to show them the cool, thing they found….even if their friend didn’t think it was, in fact, all that cool. To the teachers who show our videos in class. To everyone with a DFTBA tattoo, or a hanklerfish in your notebook. To the people who have been watching since ‘07, and the ones who found us last week. To the citizens of Nerdcrafteria, the team at EffYeahNerdfighters, the sub-reddit creators, and the mods in Our Pants. To the Lizzie Bennet lovers, the SciShow Fans, the Crash Course Students, the Swoodilypoopers supporters, and of course, in every way, to the Nerdfighters.
TO ALL OF YOU…WE ARE IN A WONDERFUL, FASCINATING, CAPTIVATING, GLORIOUSLY DEEP HOLE DEBT TO YOU AND WE LOVE IT DOWN HERE SO MUCH.
Thank you all.
We love you guys! Congrats <333
03/03/13 Ransom Riggs book signing in Manila
It was so amazing meeting him. He told me, “I can’t master the Nerdfighter sign. I might get kicked out of Nerdfighteria.”
I personally think he did a great job. Don’t kick him out!
Of course not! There is only one requirement for being a Nerdfighter and it is certainly not finger nimbleness (It’s wanting to be one, of course)! :)
Calling all Nerdfighters! →
Hello fellow Nerdfighters! My name is Morgan and I am one of the contributors here at Eff Yeah Nerdfighters. I am currently conducting research for my honors thesis project at the University of Northern Iowa and I need your help! Click this link to fill out a quick, easy, and anonymous survey that will help me answer questions about a person’s personality traits and how these traits relate to the person’s behavior within online relationships. It should take no more than 10-20 minutes to complete the survey. In addition to filling out the survey, I would greatly appreciate it if you could reblog this post to give me a signal boost. Thank you so much for your help! DFTBA!
We are LIVE NOW! →
Come freak out with us about EVERYTHING. Seriously, there are a lot of things to freak out about.

NERDFIGHTER THESIS
Hi e’erybody!
My name is Karen Eisenhauer and I’m a senior Linguistics/Anthropology major at Pitzer college. I’ve decided to do my thesis on linguistic ideologies in Nerdfighteria! It’s gonna be totally jokes when it’s done, but I NEED YOUR HELP.
In order to participate, you must be from the USA and you must be a native English speaker. Sorry, international Nerdfighters! Also, please note: if you are under 18, you will need parental permission to participate!)
The following is a link to a short questionnaire which will ask you about your experience as a Nerdfighter. It will also ask you to rank several comments from YouTube. First you’ll have to give me your email address because I have to send you an email with a consent form (or send one to your parents, if you’re under 18). You know, legality issues and whatnot. But after that it’ll only take about 5 minutes to fill out, and I shall love you forever if you participate!
SURVEY HERE!:
https://pomona.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_exoGzV3LJaVixsV
I also am looking for people to give longer interviews. These would take about half an hour and would be done by phone or some online video-chat service. The interview will be about your participation in Nerdfighteria and what you think being a good Nerdfighter means. I’d love to hear your opinions! If you want to participate, contact me:
email: karen_eisenhauer13@pitzer.edu
tumblr: yinyueji.tumblr.com
twitter: monpanachable
youtube: monpanachable
I’m also on the ning and on nerdfighteria.org. Come find me!
Thanks again, Nerdfighteria. You are made of awesome.
Best Wishes,
Karen
ps Please reblog to spread the word!
Hey all, if you have a few minutes (or longer) to spare, please help Karen out by answering her survey :)
