RT @weathergum: “Earlier this week, in New York at least, the heat broke for a few days and the weather was cool and temperate, and I have to admit, I really enjoyed it. I love summer as much as the next Seth Cohen, but I’m kind of looking forward to, if nothing else, the end of summer’s tyrannical insistence on having fun. You know, sometimes I don’t want to feel anxious that I’m not making the most of my time. Sometimes I like knowing that, in fact, the opposite is true but who cares. And also sweatshirts are soft! That being said, today is just a perfect summer day from where I’m sitting. So we better all get out there and make the most of our time! What are we, jerks?”

Spoiler Alert: You will meet a girl, fall in lover with her, move in with her, get a dog, live together for three years, plan on marrying her and then she will inexplicably dump you on August 23rd. I wish I would have gotten that fucking spoiler alert. #bittergum |

[Ed. note: I've noticed, Steve, that sometimes when people give you a hard time in the comments, you will get defensive and insist that giving people a hard time isn't the way the Videogum comments are supposed to work, and that people should relax and be more accepting of other people's opinions and jokes and stuff, which I'm tempted to agree with. But then you do shit like this, so, it's like, which is it going to be, buddy?!]

[Ed. note: No offense to wwwest, but this isn't THAT great of a comment. This image has been posted other places. But it is funny. And mostly, I just wanted to make the point that you guys really slept on "Hot Drinks" this week. That was the jam of the summer. That should have gotten 100k comments. Each one of them being some iteration of "this is the jam of the summer and I just wanted to make sure I didn't sleep on it." Streets is shaking heads.]

FIIIIIIIIIIIRSSSSSSSST!!!!!!!!
Actually based on the above data, looks like you are dead last. Womp womp.
DB FTW!
I just heard Andy and Dexter say that in stereo
Are you running out of steam, Steve? This is so “Idiot’s Guide to Trolling” it makes me sad.
whats the matter, kajus – JEALOUS I WAS FIRST!!???
Oh no, I’m not going to fall for your tricky troll questions!
Steve has learned much from this gif:
im already downvoting this in anticipation of next weeks lowest rated comment!
i Lawl’d @ “FIIIIIIIIIIIRSSSSSSSST!!!!!!!!”
i’m no apologist.
Rock Monster Sharks?! Oh my god! I’ve got to go start a band! Thanks bing!
Also, congrats, Monster’s Ballers! This week was a huge deposit in my LOLk! (is that how use that? I’m unsure and self-conscious that I don’t know what I’m talking about!)
Anyway. BAND. Going to start one.
What a great day on Videogum! Corgis on treadmills! Debates about political art! I haven’t really had any comment on it because I really am just standing back and admiring the fine work from the monsters. That, or because I slept through the day and I don’t feel particularly refreshed by the notion of Friday since I slept through most of the day and missed class. Again.
I am going to ground myself.
Come on guys, Bjorn on the 4th July was bleepin golden! (I’m #1 in my mind this week) #personalvalidationgum
Every time I feel a comment deserved more I just sing a little song to myself and I try again.
“You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day ”
better?
Whoa, I like your new haircut.
You’re sweet to notice.
Hey sweet! Huckabeast did really slay it this week, but I’m still glad I was able to crack the top five, because pretty much immediately after I made that comment, my week went to shit. But it’s back on the up now! I’m off work, chillin’ on the couch, about to mix myself a Friday evening Bloody Mary and do a little homework, because I’m an adult and I can do what I want!
It’s Friday and I just got paid!
Ah. Meant to do this!

NOOOOO!!!! Looks like it’s suicide for me this weekend.
you did it congratulations
I’m still new ’round here. Thanks for understanding.
He’s really perfected the ‘white man’s overbite’
Justin Bieber’s looking more manly than usual in this footage. Sniff! They grow up so fast! Boo hoo!!!
WOO HOOO! It’s the weekend! August is almost over you guys, My tan is looking pretty good, but we should all get to the beach to soak up those last few rays of the summer!
His tan lines are going to look like the rising sun of Japan emanating from his crotch. There! I’ve made an observation.
my tan is better.
I could have gotten over my hang-ups for the left turn the second half of Sunshine took if Cillian Murphy was running from that tanned guy from Notsewfast’s comment. Him or Snookie (MAYBE- don’t know if I would want to pay money for anything Jersey Shore-related).
BAM! Vaporized by solar radiation.
Is this the beach vacation that led to your conception?
Someone call the fire department, cuz this man’s blazing!
Luv this .gif. It works for anything.
Congratulations again, That One.
TCOAT, everyone else.
time to blast “fuck you” and get the party started!
Gross
rad comment.
rad FACE!
strikes and gutters, man. thanks monsters!
I can’t speak for the rest of the Monsters, Gabe, but I didn’t comment on Hot Drinks because I was too busy breaking it down to “Hot! Hot! Caaareful when you pooour it”.
It’s hard to type when you’re spinning on your head!
Time to party, you guys! Snookie styyyyle.
this all seems a little too close to Pakistan.
With all of these summer jamz filling up our Minidisc players, we have really neglected our fall jamz playlists.
We need to get to work!
can we change it to fall slowdance? my legs are cramping from krumping.
Gabe’s editors note on Steve’s comment very much reminded me of the tongue lashing Tim Gunn gave to Gretchen last night on Project Runway. Anyone else?
Not interested in receiving a tongue lashing from a gentleman as I am not that kind of fella.

HURP. DE DURP.
Exactly
Oh MAN. I wish there had been more of it. I wish the episode had been two hours. It was AMAZING. The episode was AMAZING. As soon as the scolding happened, I backed up the DVR and watched it again.
What did she do!? Agh I’m gonna have to find it online, I caught the first two eps and loved Gretchen but if she did something bad enough to have Tim bitch her out I have to see it.

I clicked through to check out your tumbler main page and saw that you have posted some comment that has me listed with the twitter impersonator “steve winbot” but I am not actually associated with that twitter account. It’s fraud, FYI
Steve, that was a re-blog from another blog, but I’ve deleted it anyway. I don’t have you associated with that Twitter account in any of the “official” vgum posts.
You are the best. I love you. Kiss me.
I’m sad I missed the party game this week…
I was too busy watching Gabe and Gabe 2: Pig in the City

Shout to cakeordeath! I missed the boat on this weeks’ BNPG and I see that you used my name. HOLLA!
WORD UP!
just wanted to say i am PUMPED about bookgum!
This was a pretty sweet week (ha, cool writing there) but I just wanna say I’m super proud of myself because I achieved a PERSONAL BEST with that Tony Danza comment I made. SMALL VICTORIES, GUYS. I may never be in the ball! I gotta take what I can get.
Yeah, that’s right, the point of this comment is to congratulate myself. To temper that, how about this photo of the baby tiger that was just found in some lady’s suitcase at JFK (you’re welcome):

That is so cute, but the story kind of made me sad…
Ok, I just rewatched Corgis on a treadmill and I am happy again. Carry on…
But he was rescued! That turns a sad into a good.
Oh no he didn’t!!!
I agree with Meteorologist Gabe, this summer was crispy like you never seen!
Hey monsters! Token first comment + it’s Friday and I just got paid!
token response
I just wanted to that I loved the Monster Movies sub-BNPG so much. Just so much fun. Good job, huckabeast, and everybody!
Shouldn’t someone be wedding drunk by now?
I really, really wish. The wedding’s not until next Saturday (leaving Monday – vacations, yay!) and I’m waiting around to pick up future Mrs. That One from her bachelorette party. She’s hitting up a male strip club. Even after eight amazing years of intimate commitment, the ride home seems like it could be a bit awkward.
“How were the dicks?”
“Alright, I guess.”
“That sounds cool. Good night. Love you.”
“Love you, too.”
LAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTT!

Kenny Powers, get this out of my eyes.
I posted that hot drinks video on my bf’s facebook wall and found out that he knows him…I guess he is an Ohio native. Basically, I am famous.
Looking like this, how could you NOT be famous?
I have the same problem everyone does on internet forums where you associate people with looking like their avatars so as far as I’m concerned caseanate actually is constantly dressed as a unicorn when he posts here.
I’m a girl! Blew your mind!
