I really like CPGgray, except for like, 10 years ago, when he made a video about why the british monarchy is necessary and useful.

He never says they’re necessary but does explain how they’re useful. Is the royal family not actually bringing in more money for the government than they’re using?

Here’s a great video Shaun made in response to the CGP one.

He really likes useless things and uneccesary, pedantic order. Monarchy is where the two meet.

His video on runway numbers is great as well

The airport codes and interstate codes videos are similarly great!

Really didn’t cover that part of Alexander Pope’s life in The DaVinci Code, did they?
Despite it being the driving of his entire life.
Alexandrr Pope was that bitch.

That was much funnier and much more entertaining and interesting than I ever would have guessed.
TWeaK@lemm.ee 11 months ago
There’s a few of them where he’s gone off the deep end, for viewer entertainment. The rock, paper, scissors video(s) are particularly intricate.

Damn you for making me watch that. All the way to the end and beyond. In one pass. And for becoming better for having watched it.

This one and the one where he investigates the guy who supposedly sailed around Staten Island are my favourites. I love the way he unpacks the investigative process
TWeaK@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Not sure I’ve seen that Staten Island one, but I’ve queued it up now!
I really liked the US State Flag one, that tickled me good.
