I think the “OMG Did I just fuck a Minecraft pineapple?” Thing is in a way showing that even though most people try to act like they are better than their past self saying how their embarrassed of their old material, they are doing arguably more embarrassing things now
I would not say that the "OMG Did I just fuck a Minecraft pineapple" Video would be more embarrassing than what Bo is saying he is emarressed by. Some of his old content has not aged well and Bo has openly apologied for that. I think it is just purely a joke about how ridiculous the thumbnails on youtube have become.
@@ShotgunRaider88 may be referring to how pointless it is rather than the level of embarrassment. I don't think it's just a joke since he put it right after the speech.
What Chris said about this part made me think about it also in terms of a commentary on advertising. That one in particular is so jarring, and that’s how ads often are - it sucks when they interrupt the moment when a piece is getting intense. Always so many layers to Bo’s work!
Something funny he did with the mental health awareness "ad" was it said 'laceless shoes 60% off!' This is a joke specifically referring to how you can't have shoelaces inside of mental health institutions or inpatient treatment facilities because they are a hazard. There is a chance this could be coincidental, but knowing bo, I'm gonna say it's intentional. I laughed so hard when I saw that.
I think all of the ads and stuff is commentary on the fact that absolutely every single thing has advertising in it and he really hates it. I’m not always the best at articulating my interpretation of things. But basically in this special he repeatedly talks about how we let the internet and technology so deep into our lives and these things literally change our brain chemistry and the way we react to things and the things we do in the real world. Advertising is similar, we’re inundated with advertising and product placement constantly, fueling our insane consumerism and dependence on these giga corporations who control so many aspects of our lives without us even being entirely conscious of it.
Yeah, and this spot in particular, how incongruous it is with the content it’s overlayed on makes me wonder if the exaggerated ridiculousness was a way of pointing out how it ruins things.
1. I think every time he heard a helicopter or plane, he looked outside through the blinds to get a shot of it, but it never came into view. That's why he was upset lol ... Probably a shot he wanted to make himself feel more isolated as a transition into something else. That's what I was thinking at least since he references it 2-3 times in the outtakes. 2. He could have just set a projector outside the building so nothing was seen with the fire on the window cover maybe?
@@TheDaringPastry1313 maybe but he had more than one Fight club reference between inside and the outtakes so I’d not be surprised if it was . That and the kind of desperate “ come on “ the disappointing “ fuck “ when it flew by kind of made me think he was just wanting an end to the isolation... in the narrative of course.
I think the helicopter or plane sound scenes were a joke about Amazon and drones. It was visualizing how people would act, trying to see if the drone has their package or not
In addition to what other people have said, I think one way to think about the ads (other than their obvious comedic value) is as a visual representation of "a little bit of everything all of the time." The crazy randomness of the internet. As he's trying to bare his soul, some ridiculous clickbait is distracting the viewer. I kid you not, as you were making a serious point in this video, I suddenly got a peppy, upbeat ad for almond milk and was like, "case in point." As for why he never used any drone footage, one possible reason is that having the camera be stationary throughout the entire special makes the moment when he picks it up and starts swinging it around in AEOM more jarring and chaotic. It may not have been as impactful if we'd subconsciously gotten used to a lot of camera movement throughout the special. ...at least that's my 2 cents.
I’m not an expert on mental health but I saw the part of Bo breathing heavy and you can only see his back then he cuts away as him having a panic attack and regrouping
At 2:00 the song that's playing in the background is "My Whole Family Thinks I'm Gay" which is likely an example of something that makes him cringe now. Though I still think that song is hilarious.
When I first heard that part and he said something along the lines of “or maybe they found my body and this footage was sort of with it” I truly had to pause the video for a bit because the thought of discovering this footage in such a way broke my heart to pieces. Idk it just kind of hit hard.. idk
In a previous video you said you will watch other people when you're done with Bo's outtakes, but I strongly recommend reacting to some of Bo's other older songs. Many come to mind like "Art is dead", "Words words words" and so many more. In case you really want to check out some other people, I'd recommend Tim Minchin. Many of his older songs are in the same style as Bo's, but his later work isn't as focused on comedy. Some of my favourites are "Prejudice", "Dark Side (epic version)" and "Confessions" (all of these are comedic), but I could make a whole list of them all.
1985 and microwave popcorn are 2 songs that are only on spotify, but there are reuplouds on youtube, they are funny and i want to see your reactions to them!
I think at least the pop up add with the Minecraft pineapple bit is a reference to the old cringe content of TH-cam he was talking about. He talks about how old content is embarrassing for him yet the pop up add shows he can't really escape it. Like despite being not liking it, he can never run from it, and even worse, even if he doesn't want to he still benefits from it in a way?
I know its not part of the Bo train, but since the theme of counter culture came up, maybe you'd be interested in the song "zombified" by falling in reverse.
he's just trying to parody the current state of youtube with all the ads and ridiculously stupid clickbait thumbnails that are an infestation now. that's what i took away, at least
I think the fake ads are mostly a commentary on how you can't enjoy anything in a vacuum. The content you watch doesn't just exist as content, but as a way to get you to buy things and watch OTHER content, constant distractions that don't care about what is happening on screen. And youtubers are even forced to do it to their own works for the sake of self-promo. Anyway don't forget to like and subscribe if you liked this comment.
So.... I feel like the shots of the outside windows is just him getting upset at the airplanes... I mean, imagine, you're trying to get a shot done in your home, and the planes that SHOULDN'T be flying due to COVID interrupts your scene(s). Pretty annoying...possibly infuriating as well.

WHY IS HE MOVING?!
Reaction starts at 0:19
"why are there so many spiders?"
"SPIDERRRRRRRRRR"
hiding in the corner
@@Discoveryman29 super fuckin normal! i aint afraid of no-
@@spicynachoss684 SPIDERRRRRRRRR
@@JD-jl4yy why is he looking at me
Why- Why is he moving? STOP MOVING!!! OH GOD HE’S MOVING!!!
The part with him singing goodbye, with the flames behind him, reminds me of the “this is fine” meme with the dog

It was kinda terrifying. I'm glad he didn't use it bc I think I would have been fucking traumatised lol

Read the ads! You are missing a ton of jokes!
@@rhinocirrus who is missing jokes? I read all of the ads.
I took the ads as both Bo’s comedy roots being based on the philosophy of absurdism and now how much reality is imitating art in that regard .
1. I think every time he heard a helicopter or plane, he looked outside through the blinds to get a shot of it, but it never came into view. That's why he was upset lol ...

2. He could have just set a projector outside the building so nothing was seen with the fire on the window cover maybe?
Or he was going full “Jack the narrator” and hoping it would crash on him .
@@Death_By_Media flying to me represents a type of freedom and he was "Trying to be funny and stuck in a room, there isn't much more to say about it"
@@TheDaringPastry1313 maybe but he had more than one Fight club reference between inside and the outtakes so I’d not be surprised if it was .

Nah he wants it to hit his house

100% agree!
The spiders name is David
This one is an unnamed spider- the first spider from 5 years was named David 😂
The full version of spider is equally hilarious lol
The "laceless shoes" bit in that Mental Health Decade at Kohls is one of the subtle-est and best jokes in the special.
I’m not an expert on mental health but I saw the part of Bo breathing heavy and you can only see his back then he cuts away as him having a panic attack and regrouping
I really like the interpretation of the fire on the window. It does look cool on the blinds too. Outside is dangerous!!
At 2:00 the song that's playing in the background is "My Whole Family Thinks I'm Gay" which is likely an example of something that makes him cringe now. Though I still think that song is hilarious.

Idk it just kind of hit hard.. idk
Also the next peanut butter sandwich skit is my favorite and it makes me laugh EVERY TIME.
I am so fucking sick of doing the dishes.

I like when Chris sings along with him. It's like he's encouraging past Bo to keep going with what will become the final products
Shit is an absolute banger and probably my favourite song of his. Too bad it’s so short.
The spider is worthy of being your video title
You're apparently psychic. 😂
I didn't even realize the fire was projected on to the window. Love your interpretation!
Holy shit Bo looks just like Pedro Pascal at 7:34 that's nuts.
yes to my guy appreciating shit like the masterpiece that it is 😌💯

I’m glad you’re back man, found you through your bo reactions recently and then you just started posting again
shit is definitely a banger and is underrated
I know its not part of the Bo train, but since the theme of counter culture came up, maybe you'd be interested in the song "zombified" by falling in reverse.
Only came here for spider but honestly I think having my reaction on record for myself would be a good idea
Oh, was he using a drone? I thought he had a crane and dolly rig lol yeah maybe the movements don't make sense if it's not a drone... 😅
No you missed the best part of that Kohl’s ad joke though. XD Laceless shoes are on sale so you can’t hang yourself with the laces. XD
if you go to the album on TH-cam the spider has an extended bit but has no video to watch just the inside logo
I think the ads are supposed to be challenging whether or not you can come across as being sincere within something that is being commercialized.
Fun facts:
There’s no pineapple in Minecraft.
Never been this early to a Chris Reacts video before! Looking forward to your thoughts!
he's just trying to parody the current state of youtube with all the ads and ridiculously stupid clickbait thumbnails that are an infestation now. that's what i took away, at least
