MBMBaM - A Whole Lemon (Kinetic Typography)

Here's a little something I learned to make today! I had a snow day and so I decided to do some playing around with kinetic typography. Hope you enjoy!

For those who are wondering,
This was made with Adobe After Effects.
This clip is from episode 341 of "My Brother, My Brother, and Me", and occurs at 46:21.
Update: Thanks to YouTube user "Pyro" for the timestamp!

bless the animation of the lemon matching with the audio of the smacks on the table

It's possible that eating lemons is just a regular thing for this guy but on that day he went to the dentist and got a fluoride treatment and was therefore not allowed to have citrus until a certain amount of time had passed.

What lemon boy doesn't realize, is that it's always sour hour

[nangke]

Maybe he took one of those magic fruit tablets that make things taste sweet but couldn't eat his lemon during the effective time?

A citrus sleeper agent?
Must have been....

AGENT ORANGE

THIS IS A WHOLE YEAR OLD. BUT I'M RLLY EXCITED TO SHARE THAT I BELIEVE IT IS, CLEMONTIME.

[Zcumgod]

D-did he get lemon juice all over his bag?

[PyroNinja]

He had one of those "miracle berry" tablets that blocks out sour and bitter flavors so he wanted to nonchalantly enjoy a whole lemon in class to establish dominance. The effect only lasts like 30 minutes though, so once he knew he'd run out of time he decided against further embarrassing himself.

[texturedwater]

my favorite part is that he feels it necessary to include that its an intro to criminal justice class

Fun fact: I actually did this once. My teacher just burst out laughing.

[GayLuigi]

My grandfather eats lemons.


Except he doesn’t peel them first


They are sliced though


He takes one, puts *salt* on it


Then eats it

[libbyjune]

This terrifies me because I was in the process of eating a peeled lemon the moment I scrolled past it in my recommended. How. Why.

[coinlockerbaby]

At least the lemon wasn't combustible.

[carolinemckee]

"Time for me to watch you peel and eat a lemon, APPARENTLY?"

[SkySqui]

No matter how many times I've heard this clip out of context, I never had ANY IDEA that it was from the McElroys.

[metalexile]

This is still one of my favorite MBMBaM stories. There's just so much emotion and mystery in this ridiculous little anecdote.

[matrixphijr]

If I could put my understanding of this video on a metaphorical scale, “I don’t get it” would be atop an endless staircase from where I am now.

[lucystarlight]

I love that Justin starts to break down before he's even halfway through the question

[ahobbit]

My favourite theory about this that I’ve heard is that they’d had one of those candies or whatever they are that switch your sweet/sour taste and he wanted to eat a lemon while it would be sweet but it had worn off by then.

comparing this lemon goof to the glass shark goof, justin has only 2 ways of comedy. endess stream of thought, vs wheezing between every goddamn word
