okay, So my dad used to work on second life, and he was one of the people who created the models for the people and the restrictions for them. I showed this video to him an he was overjoyed, he could not stop laughing! thats all I had to say, you made my dad really happy
I swear to god my first round watching this gave me the greatest euphoria i have ever experienced in my life and i wish everyday that i could experience it for the first time again
12:37 this shot of the boy-mayor feverishly dancing to nothing but the sound of griffins keyboard as he types a desperate plea to god next to a big Need HELP? sign is so good. im pretty sure thats what they call symbolism
I have to say, the camera dramatically zooming in on The Boy Mayor's face while the chorus goes "I don't like the look of it" is my favorite Monster Factory Goof to date.
The boy mayor of second life is one of those Monster Factory characters that I can never accurately remember the physical form of, only what he made me feel
This so much later but I’m pretty sure he had to have. Justin said he tweeted and I think that would be the only way people knew about where they were in the game, and if you follow their tweets you most likely have seen their videos? I don’t know I might be wrong.
dajosh42069 Really? The Boy Mayor cosplay is... meh... But the Totino’s cosplay is on fuckin point. He even has the backpack for his apples- I mean pizza tools!
reference for all the parts in the video where Justin does the Boy Mayor's voice: 4:00 - "I'm ready for my Second Life™" 4:43 - "Is everyone enjoying my Creation?" 16:43 - "Time for a day of fun"
Oh, I’m the kind of mayor, who likes to roam around, Where furry guys are, you know that I’ll be found. I kiss ‘em and I love ‘em, cause to me they’re all the same, I hug ‘em, and I squeeze ‘em, and they don’t even know my name, I’m Second Life’s Boy-Mayor, Second Life’s Boy-Mayor, I fly around, around, around, around, around...
ME TOO ME TOO i came to the comments specifically because of this, the gentle disbelief in griffins voice is Maybe The Funniest Thing Ive Ever Heard????
I'm not even exaggerating when I say this could be the funniest thing I've ever seen. I was literally in tears during the whole dance fiasco. Thank you McElroys for doing the good lord's work.
you know youve been watching too much monster factory when these characters become recognizable to you the minute he put the mouth up im like "oh there he is"
Every time they were choosing which side of the slider they want for each feature I immediately was like “oh yeah that one fires off a neuron” and automatically knew what they were gonna go with.
@@dennis_duran Hello two year old reply to a five year old comment, just wanted to say real quick that this is exactly the experience that you start getting when monster factory becomes your comfort series and you're rewatching every single episodes for at least the tenth time.
it's for sure big enough of a fandom that you'll find people with all types of personalities, be that super extroverted and energetic or chill and introverted or anything in between :P
Twinsen I remember this game! good to see its still weird I used to just fuck around with the bizarrely large amount of fairy stuff and get all the free shit I could find
11:52 the condescending, fatherly tone that they use to speak to this gruesome virtual assemblage of semi-human parts that barely resembles a boy is so fucking funny. the like, concerned but also absolutely revolted 'hey bud? hey dude???', the frantic clicking and menu searching because dear god where is the button to get this boy to stop convulsing, the grim acceptance that their hubris has led them to this horrible fate of eternal damnation? this is the best fucking thing humanity has ever produced. we can all rest now.
I think it’s absurd yet accurate to say this video changed my life. This was my first Monster Factory video, so it consequently led me to the McElroys, MBMBAM, and so on. A blessing, truly.
This is unironically my go-to comfort series on TH-cam, I always come back and watch this series because it makes me so happy and just content. I think that's part of the McElroy charm - I do the same thing with The Adventure Zone balance arc. I just love the brothers and the things they make, it just makes me so happy.
you can't see it, but the gamer guy eyes™ actually have tiny TSM and Razer logos, try wearing sport shades while indoors to truly capture the spirit of the gamer guy eyes™
Whenever I have anxiety or a panic attack I always come to this video. It has given me a lot of comfort over the years. I know almost every word and I lip sinc to it while I watch :)
I've watched this over and over thru the years also. It has a soothing feeling about it and it takes you to a different place. Hope you are doing well friend.
Okay, all jokes aside, a mystery novel where the main character somehow inherits an amusement park from their grandfather that hasn't been in operation for like forty years due to an unsolved murder would be dope.
There is a story about that you can find on TH-cam. Some friends buy an old abandon amusement park where people used to go missing. It was a good story, forget what it was called though
I know it’s been 7 years but this series is still legitimately the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. I’ve watched it a ridiculous amounts of times and I still laugh until I cry every time.
This is my favorite Monster Factory to rewatch because of the absolute fucking GLEE in their voices at every step, especially during character creation 😂 Griffin completely and suddenly busting up is the most pure and healing thing I've ever heard
This is so great. I've been on there for years and I just forgot how weird and funny it was in the beginning. The best thing is that I've seen variations of that avatar like 100 times. People always choose that blonde starter avatar and morph it like you did.
"Second life, you shouldn't have done this!" This is my favorite monster factory. I have cried real tears and couldn't breathe properly through my uncontrollable laughing. I have seen them all, and they can't top this.
real talk polygon why do you bother releasing anything but this series i've watched all of them twice now and check for new ones more often than i care to admit
I'd say most monster factories are funnier when they build the monster than when they play the game, but second life is so WILD that this boy warrants a series just to play the game I love it every time Griffin says "SEcond liiIIFE?!" every time it does something wack
i kinda wish they'd never figured out the dancing thing and the Boy Mayor had just danced his way through the entire three-part series
I'd love to see that alternate universe
"Can I put my thumbs inside of me?"
I mean, Griffin, my dude, that's something you gotta find out for yourself. Live a little.
He’s put much bigger things in himself than his thumbs
I am of course referring to Griffin’s Amiibo Corner
I've seen this vid a million times and I just noticed Justin's response is "uh, yeah! if you're patient"
Izisartsy I never knew he said that till I read your comment thank you
He could probably fit his thumbs in his mouth pretty easily. Putting them in other places, however, is probably far more challenging and worthwhile.
Dude, don’t you know? His walnut is a temple.
okay, So my dad used to work on second life, and he was one of the people who created the models for the people and the restrictions for them. I showed this video to him an he was overjoyed, he could not stop laughing! thats all I had to say, you made my dad really happy
that's a beautiful story
I love this
i would like this but it’s 420
did he get annoyed that they didn't have the camera in the default follow position
it’s been a month and it’s no longer 420! liked!
I'm so glad he learned how to stop dancing, because otherwise I was going to asphyxiate myself laughing
FidgetThePimpster
If I were to die it would have been for an excellent cause
Even after he stopped dancing I couldn't stop laughing for a solid 5 minutes because I kept thinking about it and making myself laugh again.
I’m glad someone else is having this problem. Its the middle of the night and I’m fully sobbing with laughter.
4 years later and the dancing boy mayor is still causing near deaths. I CANNOT BREATHE
I swear to god my first round watching this gave me the greatest euphoria i have ever experienced in my life and i wish everyday that i could experience it for the first time again
"HE LOOKS LIKE A HUMAN RANSOM NOTE "
Golden.
I can only DREAM of being able to come up with funny shit like this :(
Douglas Adams would be proud.
to this day it’s still one of the funniest things i’ve ever heard
Mr potato head
16:02 the cat saying "sorry, only my owner can ride me =)" is THE most uncomfortable thing i ever read
draculol I’m kinkshaming that
You mean furry
I mean, same
The weird thing is, when you ARE in second life, that isn't even weird lol
12:37 this shot of the boy-mayor feverishly dancing to nothing but the sound of griffins keyboard as he types a desperate plea to god next to a big Need HELP? sign is so good. im pretty sure thats what they call symbolism
You gave me 2nd Hand laughter LOL
I have to say, the camera dramatically zooming in on The Boy Mayor's face while the chorus goes "I don't like the look of it" is my favorite Monster Factory Goof to date.
this comment is a year old but I feel the same way

@Harrypotamus !
10:18
second life was, objectively, created solely for this video
hi rhys it's keena i'm delighted to see you in the monster factory comment section
griffin's anguished "LET ME IN, I'M THE MAYOR!!" really made this video i think.
14:23
Strong Eric Andre at the DNC vibes
The boy mayor of second life is one of those Monster Factory characters that I can never accurately remember the physical form of, only what he made me feel
Same! When I watch the Fallout 4 series, I recognize every step that leads to Pam, but when I watch this, I can never remember which bits stay.
The boy mayor is but a vibe, a lingering feeling of dread.
that's so beautiful...
It probably doesn’t help that he transmogrifies like 3 times throughout the series lol
i can't believe griffin macelroy went on a date with a furry
Social Progression
I can.
Character development
love is love
Is this a meme or real? I don't care really im just kinda curious
“Ya want a big boy or a little boy?”
🎵”a little booooy”🎵
“It is done”
3:12 golden
Uncanny resemblance to Boris Johnson, former mayor of London.
Gunnonni. Boris Johnson, boymayor of London
don't insult the boy mayor like that
Gunnonni. and Donald Trump, current US president.
Don't insult our mayor! He was a beautiful animal!
Edbrad by thinking it's an insult you made it an insult.
I wonder if Raz Ogg has seen this video.
Yeah i expected that to be the top comment
This so much later but I’m pretty sure he had to have. Justin said he tweeted and I think that would be the only way people knew about where they were in the game, and if you follow their tweets you most likely have seen their videos? I don’t know I might be wrong.
Probably, considering what happens in the finale.
YOOOOOOO SOMEONE COSPLAYED THE BOY MAYOR AT THE PORTLAND RETRO EXPO COSPLAY COMPETITION
THAT’S WONDERFUL

i just tried playing second life for the first time. holy shit. everything's so broken and strange and i got a girlfriend in five minutes
Holy shit I thought I commented that? Are you my doppelganger?
*Begins plot to kill you before you kill me.*
Is Second Life free to play? Just wondering.
RazorBaron7x7 yeah
it only costs your soul.
I tried it about a year or so back and the minute I joined the game, someone gifted me about 10 dildos
poor Raz Ogg. I really felt bad for the guy. true love doesn't come around that often.
"Love em' and leave em' "
A man for all seasons, the boy mayor is.
Always leave 'em wanting more.
Oh, I’m the kind of mayor, who likes to roam around,
Where furry guys are, you know that I’ll be found.
I kiss ‘em and I love ‘em, cause to me they’re all the same,
I hug ‘em, and I squeeze ‘em, and they don’t even know my name,
I’m Second Life’s Boy-Mayor,
Second Life’s Boy-Mayor,
I fly around, around, around, around, around...
"Oh my god how could this be" might be my favorite all time monster factory moment
can you send the time code for when that happened because I Need It On Loop
nevermind found it, 20:02 if anyone needs it
ME TOO ME TOO i came to the comments specifically because of this, the gentle disbelief in griffins voice is Maybe The Funniest Thing Ive Ever Heard????
So who WAS that lucky furry that was gifted a moment of love with the Mayor-Boy?
hes in the finale lol

Griffin: can I put my thumbs inside of me?
Justin: well yeah if you're patient.
YaoiPutin lmao thumb is so entry-level u dont need patience
try the middle finger
I mean... at the same time? Because like thats not very big unless its Shaqs finger
Oh my God it's airbrushed Adam Sandlers
Yeah, I can fit my whole hand my mouth, lol amateurs
we'll never forget you, raz ogg
I'm disappointed. You didn't get into avatar physics. You could have made Mayor Augustus twerk with wild abandon.
Avery Davies WHAT?!? WE HAVE TO FORCE THEM TO CONE BACK AND REMAKE AUGUSTUS
I'm not even exaggerating when I say this could be the funniest thing I've ever seen. I was literally in tears during the whole dance fiasco. Thank you McElroys for doing the good lord's work.
you know youve been watching too much monster factory when these characters become recognizable to you
the minute he put the mouth up im like "oh there he is"
Glad im not alone
This is a two Year old comment but God is it the best one in this video. So glad I’m not alone in this

+Lovenought Yaoi in Second Life. But it'd be more realistic if it were "Yaoi is my First Life."
You betrayed Raz :(
He seemed pretty chill for a furry.
I've always though furries were more spastic but I guess I was wrong. Raz must be an ambassador of his people.

literally the best comfort series to ever exist

"He can't even do that right!"

I was trying to not scream laugh and my mom looks up from her laptop and goes “oh my god I thought you were crying are you okay?” thanks boys

I think the second life series is literally the pinnacle of monster factory. This is hands down my favorite, I come back to it often.
I could watch this video every day and never get tired of it
I'd say most monster factories are funnier when they build the monster than when they play the game, but second life is so WILD that this boy warrants a series just to play the game
I love it every time Griffin says "SEcond liiIIFE?!" every time it does something wack

Griffin explicitly stating he isn't looking for love in second life then inviting a guy on a romantic swan ride is so funny to me
