Now I think I get why WAN was done in this format. Bravo.

[samtherat]

Somebody pointed it out in the comments of that video, but in the video where they pay random people to build PCs for them, 29:51 ends up being one of the builders!

[InvincibleMarvel]

They really set up the April fools video without anyone knowing

[PrecludeLP]

The continuity between this and the new video is incredible.

[matthartstonge]

the long play april fools joke paid off 😂🎉

[CyrikDub]

I never thought I'd see Linus and Luke host WAN on a couch again

[CDNC]

Getting some nostalgia just seeing the WAN show being hosted on a sofa with a beardless Linus

[alexandermason-sxog]

Holy shit that ChatGPT speech was almost word for word what UBIF said when they bought out the store I used to work at 😂😂

I was visited by the police for a google search of a gun related topic.
apparently a similar gun modification was involved in a homicide.

This was 10 years ago... "the list" is real

[saccaed]

A big problem I have with FB Marketplace is that the search results give more completely unrelated items than what is actually searched for. I have bookmarks for multiple items I search for periodically and for all of the searches it's endless results of cars and clothing when I searched for a phone or laptop or camera. There is seemingly no way to submit searches with wildcards and explicit post requirements.

My grandfather was a skilled scythe mower.
And yes, the scythe has to be pretty sharp. And since the steel often wasn't the highest quality, keeping it sharp was a bit of a chore.

Grandpa would spend quite a while each morning, hammering away at the cutting edge on an anvil - impact hardening the steel.

During the day he'd always carry a whetstone in a clip on his belt, and whenever the scythe dulled, he'd sharpen it again.

That's what those videos tend to not show... granted, with modern steel less sharpening might be needed compared to back then.

[Pythonassum]

so they WERE at the langley house, haha good one

[DANGDanGall]

One of my favourite things about WAN now is hearing Linus start a questionable analogy (Hitler today) then going back to watch Luke’s desperate face as it begins, waiting to see what’s said next.

[monkey]

I expect facebook couldn't care less about "free" listings because they can serve more ads to the user between all the fake listing

[kadenk.]

Another way Facebook Marketplace is broken is that the number of postings changes depending on what "sort by" option is selected. "Sort by" should only change the order of the results, not the number of results. This has been an issue for at least 3 years.

[MeowjinBoo]

as someone who spends alot of time buying/selling on FB marketplace it frustrates me so much, but also people in vancouver are actually insane. I buy ALOT of cameras, film etc, and people have a "i know what I got" attitude. Another thing i've seen alot of is the girls who are selling cars and put themselves in front of it.

[NickDavis]

I wondered why they were sitting on a couch lol. Great job on the april fools video im sure that took a lot of time and energy

[Gqc]

Don't get me started on FB marketplace when looking for a car, the amount of dealerships that put a price and it says listed price is recommended down payment or the listed price is expected payments. Then these people will be a pain in the ass and refuse to give the actual full price. Its so fucking annoying.
