"Um actually, this should be a card game that I can buy at my local game shop, and be able to play this game with my friends."
why bother um, actually, you should only have one " at the end of that statement.
Um actually, it would be better as a mobile app based game so that it could be regularly updated with new references
Archie Stone um actually I was supposed to have one " " " at the end of my comment.
Kyle MacLachlan or it can be like Cards Against Humanity, updated with each new edition
Um actually trex, Card games that you have to buy extensions for are a rip off, don't ruin something good before it even exists
Um actually, the Tarrasque is from French folklore, in a story about a huge terrifying beast that gets tamed by young nun, and then gets killed by the townspeople. Sure, this version of the Tarrasque looked different, but Kobolds were basically just differently named goblins in Germanic folklore, so I say it counts.
Just about to put this
The fastest 'um, actually' in the west
Also, the name "orc" IS from european folklore, even though it usually describes an individual, not a race (just as with the Tarrasque, actually).
@@moritzlinden7169 The word Orc is attributed to either an old English word meaning "Ogre" and Orcus, a god who seems to have been associated with tombs. Tolkien made up the usage of the word "Orc" in modern English as an alternate name for Goblins.
POINTS
Um, actually, even though Tarrasque is an iconic part of D&D multiverse it is loosely based on an European folklore creature: The Tarasque, which was a legendary dragon that was dwelling in France. The beast has been tamed by St Martha and is considered an important catholic legend in the south of France. Yet, aside from the name and reptilian nature they are nothing alike (the D&D version being a badass beast, a monster of dread and destruction.)
Um actually, technically Zach is correct. Dumbledore theorises that they created the three hallows, and the story about stealing them from death is a myth.
thank you
This bugged me more than it should! Haha, thank you.
Ali Jardz thank you! I was thinking the exact same thing
That was my first thought too.
I was looking for this comment. Thank you.
Um actually, you can take a picture of the invisibility cloak because it appears as a silvery fabric until you put it on
Thank you
shit dude
You get a point
@@tendiesman4637 Um actually you can't take a picture of an invisibility cloak because it appears as a piece of green screen fabric so would disappear in editing.
Um, actually, the terrasque isnt unique to dnd, its from frech folklore and dnd is one of the best games ever and an amazing rpg
Came here to say that
Learned that from Overly Sarcastic Productions.
PlainSarah Jane YES
@@plainsarahjane1466 Same!
I also came here to correct that.
I like how zak knows literally nothing and just guesses
um, actually his name is spelled "Zac"
Zoe Zampino gold.pure.fucking.gold.
TotosTales haha
Um, actually, it's Zac.
CuteKitten321 um, actually thats already been established
um actually, zac's smile is the cutest
Rea Keebz YEEEEESSS
1:33
Um, actually, Grant's is.
Memepool 22 Um actually, you have 2 apostrophes for no reason.
Um actually, *NO*
Um, actually the Tarasque comes from a myth originating in Southern France.
Thank you Overly Sarcastic Productions.
I fucking love overly sarcastic productions
IT HAS R E T U R N E D
YAYYYYYY
I'm so hyped too
FINALLY
I don't have a twitter so I'll just comment it here. Somebody else can put it on twitter.
Um, actually, J. R. R. Tolkien didn't invent the Orc. He was the first to define it, but it did vaguely exist before him.
Um actually, you are correct. Orcs were mentioned way before Tolkien by the romans, celts and others (first time ~ 50 AD), but the descriptions differed a lot. Apparently the term oger is derived from the latin word for orc, which are in my opinion rather similar creatures. So I'd argue the romans invented the Orc and since they are european there is nothing wrong about the question.
McKenna Laird I was so confused when he said that. The word dates back to the late 16th century
McKenna Laird
yaaassssssss!!! :D
Schattenmaler Um Actually it wasn't a question.
sorry for being late but yeah, for tolkien, goblins and orcs are the same, and he didn't invent goblins...
"Um, Actually", the pronunciation given by Trapp is Martian Manhunter's secret Identity meaning it is spelled "John Jones". J'onn J'onzz is pronounced differently.
This needs to be either a proper show (tru tv this would be a good opportunity) or a web series with longer episodes because i need more
Do I have some news for you
Um actually, "orcs" cannot legally be trademarked due to the words use in pre-copyright era literature (such as the land and sea orcs in the epic poem Orlando Furioso), making it impossible for Tolkein to prove his creation was an original and consequently unrelated idea.
Um actually, that "orc" is completely unrelated in origin. In Italian (and French and Latin), the word is Orca, which means a large whale or sea monster. This is the same root as the Latin name orcus orca, or killer whale. There is no land orc, unless you've read an unorthodox translation that uses the word 'orc' for a different monster. Given that the poem is based on a mixture of the Chanson de Roland and Greek Mythology, and that Tolkein's "orc" is based on a Scandanavian goblin, it's pretty clear that the two are unrelated.
actually orcs are mentioned in Beowulf.
Nathan Fedor
Um, actually you have to say "Um, actually" and not just "actually" when correcting someone
Nathan Fedor That one I wasn't aware of and had to look up. I found out that the reason I missed it is that when translated into modern English, the term 'evil spirits' is used. Not too far removed from early descriptions of Goblins, and more likely to be of related origin to Tolkein's orc than the one in Orlando Furioso. The original word is Orcneas (pl) which translates more accurately to devils or ghouls, than evil spirits, as the literal translations is 'Pluto's corpses', as Orcus was an equivalent term for the Lord of Death. It is entirely possible that the Orca in Orlando Furioso gets its name from the same place, although the Orca more resembles the Leviathan than a goblin-like creature. Beowulf, unfortunately mentions Orcs only as an aside and gives no description of the creatures. So while this same 'Orcus' root may account for the origin of the word 'orc,' the physical description and characterization of them can't be linked definitively to either text. As has been mentioned by others, the physical description, characterization, and behavior of Tolkein's orcs is based on a Finnish goblin/giant known as a hiisi, although another commenter did mention that there is a Finnish word, 'örkki,' meaning monster. I am unsure if it is also etymologically connected to the Latin Orcus or just a coincidence.
I was under the impression that Orc was an old English word meaning monster, as Tolkien was very adamant about making sure there were no words rooted in anything else, including middle English, since it was heavily influenced by the French language. Save two Spanish words, which I think one of is found in the prologue of Lord of the Rings. Basically, the story I'm told is that since Tolkien wanted to make a folklore for England, since king Arthur's tales were essentially all also either written and stolen from French stories or heavily influenced by them. Anyways, in the hobbit he used the word "goblin", which also means monster, to describe what are actually orcs, since in his mind the two words were just two names for the same thing, since goblin was a French word meaning monster and, well, orc is an old English word meaning monster (roughly). Thing is, Peter Jackson and others interpreted it as two different creatures. I could be totally wrong, though, but that's how I heard it.
um actually you need to bring this show back
Um actually, in the deathly hallows question Zac was technically correct. In the story they did win them from death but that's just a fairy tale. Since the hallows actually do exist the theory in the books is that they were extremely talented wizards who created them themselves.
was gonna say the same thing
Moshe Ackerman thank you so much. I came into the comments hoping I wasn't the only one thinking this.
Moshe Ackerman searched for this comment :)
Moshe Ackerman No, Hermine thought it was just a fairytale. We've seen that there's an afterlife in HP7 so it stands to reason that death exists as well
I could add to this, that the three brothers of the fairy tale are not named, so if Trap was referring to the fairy tale version of the story, he shouldn't have called them the Peverell brothers.
Umm actually, Ally is the ultimate Pokemon nerd. I'm in love.
More Um Actually please. The contestants have a lot of fun on these. Please tell me these aren't scripted. If not, it shows the total nerdom of this channel's actors.
I think we are all in agreement that Ally is the greatest person ever.
i second the Ally positivity! best CH cast and i love seeing her happy, 'tis a blessing.
She is amazing😅😂
Um actually bleach is an anime and manga.
Um, actually Bleach is also a light novel series.
You win this round, MadHatter.
So... You _can_ mix it with Windex?
Um, actually Batman Forever came out in 1995.
ummm, actually... None of them said it came out in '95, just that if you want to see what 1994 was like, you should watch that movie. Filming started in 1994, so it's reasonable to assume, that the customs of people and the technologies of '94 are depicted in the movie.
Faboor Um actually costumes is the correct spelling
Um actually, "customs" refers to the act of something being unique. Thus costumes would be correct.
Umm actually
cus·tom
ˈkəstəm/Submit
noun
plural noun: customs
1.
a traditional and widely accepted way of behaving or doing something that is specific to a particular society, place, or time.
"the old English custom of dancing around the maypole"
synonyms: tradition, practice, usage, observance, way, convention, formality, ceremony, ritual; More
a thing that one does habitually.
"it was my custom to nap for an hour every day"
synonyms: habit, practice, routine, way, wont; More
LAW
established practice or usage having the force of law or right.
2.
BRITISH
regular dealings with a shop or business by customers.
"if you keep me waiting, I will take my custom elsewhere"
Origin
Middle English: from Old French coustume, based on Latin consuetudo, from consuetus, past participle of consuescere ‘accustom,’ from con- (expressing intensive force) + suescere ‘become accustomed.’
So customs is also correct
Just the other day I was thinking, "Wouldn't it be cool if CH brought back 'Um, Actually'". Sick.
I've been waiting for them to release one
SAME!!!
TheRealDanBond Um actually, you need a verb and a noun in the last sentence. ;)
Mithun Nathan can you think if they could bring back political barbecues and point of views
Um actually, you only need a verb and a noun *if* you want it to be a sentence rather than an interjection or exclamation which are both perfectly acceptable in both speech and writing (E.g. 'Ah!', 'Oh dear!', or 'Hear, hear!'), or a
pro-sentence (such as when you answer a Yes/No question; when you answer 'Yes' to the question 'Do you like chocolate?' you're actually conveying - grammatically speaking - the full-sentence answer 'Yes, I do like chocolate' in a manner that conforms to Grice's maxims).
I appreciate your grammatical pedantry, however.
Um actually he used the mind trick so he would accept his currency not so anakin could race.
I needed to find this comment.
I was actually surprised nobody had said it earlier.
Finally, this is back.
Bart Simpson doot doot Mr Skeltal
UMMMMMM ACTUALLY
You spell the contraction for the words "shall not" as "shan't" instead of "shant" .
MotherEric Um Actually, the earth is a triangle.
Um, actually, the whole "gift from death" is the legend to which "they created them" is the most likely explanation
flareus Um actually, there's no proof behind that claim.
Extremist Garchomp Um, actually in the 7th book its explained that the myth that they received the items from death was just a legend, and that the most likely explanation was that the Peverell brothers were just exceptionally smart wizards who created the Hallows
Extremist Garchomp um actually, they are right /:
Um actually, the fact that Cadmus Peverell had a child who was directly related to the Gaunts is proof of the claim, since in The Tale of the Three Brothers he committed suicide after getting the resurrection stone.
um actually, the mind trick Qui-gon used on watto was to make him accept republic credits. The mind trick failed, as watto was a toydarian. Young anakin then proceeded to join a podrace,the boonta eve classic, to win the money they needed to buy a new T-14 hyperdrive generator, as their last one was damaged when trying to escape the trade federation's blockade of naboo. Nobody needed to convince watto to let him join the podrace. Also, as a side note, they originally planned to head straight to coruscant to ask for aid. If the trade federation didn't destroy their generator, Anakin would have never been freed, thus he never would have become a jedi.
UM ACTUALLY, the show was wrong, the Tarasque is a thing in mythology, French to be specific. It's just spelled a bit differently. There is even a city named Tarascon after the Tarasque and it carries the monster in its crest.
EDIT: Now that I got 330 likes I should just change this comment into something completely wrong or stupid so it would look like I get likes for bullshit :D.
Bernardo Sutter yes another one who knows!
Bernardo Sutter i found 5 others (and me) who also gave this um actually XD
myths and legends are my strong point be it france, greek, nordic, egyptian, japanese, chinese, the pacific islanders, english, aztec, indonesian or other myths and legends I tend to know a lot about them, my strongest ones are definitely the big three, nordic, egyptian and greek
Justin Baker Oh sorry, I just deleted my last comment by accident Oo. Yeah and I am currently writing a bestiary :)
to be fair they are not the same thing tho.
Bernardo Sutter Damn i wrote it too xD
Bonjour compatriote ? :p
Um, actually the Peverel brothers DID make the deathly hallows , the FAIRYTALE depicts the process as "winning the items from death". It's later discussed that this is obviously for literary reasons, and they did not actually pray the antromorphic personification of death but instead made the items on their own, being extremely gifted wizards.
Racheli Levine Um, actually it's spelled 'anthropormorphic', not 'antromorphic'.
Um, actually the claim that the Peverell brothers made the deathly hallows is just a in story theory and no one actually knows the true origins of the deathly hallows. While the story of the river and the bridge is likely fabricated, the involvement of Death could very much be true since we have definitive proof of an afterlife in the HP universe.
Also, um, actually it's spelled Peverell.
I was thinking that, then I wondered if it was fanon.
Racheli Levine um actually, you have no life
Enderium Reactor um, actually you just wasted part of your life reading this and commenting. what does that make you?
I have no life, so sorry to ruin your comeback.
This kind of video from ch is kinda cool 'cause it's like they're having fun and their laughs are real
23The Dreamers26 um actually there not
Danny- Um, actually.... You're using the wrong form of "they're" 😅
You'd like their old show Dire Consequences
I really wish this was a real show.
squid2point0 it is a real show?
squid2point0 Um, actually it is. There are only a few episodes though. And you need to watch them on youtube.
squid2point0 I'm actually, this _is_ a show
umm actually its not really real as they are just acting out a script
Bertie Whelan um actually they aren't. This is a game they play, not a skit.
I miss videos like this; where the TH-camrs are actually having fun.
It would be really cool if this became an actual game show that appeared on TV, or maybe even on Adam Ruins Everything.
Umm, actually, the Tarrasque is based off of the Tarasque (with only one "r"), which is a mythological dragon-like creature from parts of France and I think Spain as well.
Name Name Thank you so much. I was just about to say it since nobody seemed to know but I decided to check first. It's unbelievable how long I had to scroll for this.
Oh yeah, there you go. I just posted the same thing. It is mentioned in Legenda Aurea.
Pretty sure it was also St. Martha who tamed it, if I remember my French folklore right.
Which is still Europe, so...
+codya30, they were saying that the Tar(r)asque was original to DnD.
Um actually, the Peverell brothers created The Deathly Hallows. The story of death was just a story that emerged because the items were so powerful.
Novacification Um actually that was mere conjecture on Dumbledore's part.
lucariomew358/2 I'm actually, it was conjecture that they stole them in real life, but the tale reference d in the show is correct. the tale stated the three brothers outsmarted death and won the hallows
Uhm actually, they didn't win anything. there wasn't a competition in outsmarting death that they won. Death was angry at the Peverell brothers but death was cunning and congratulated the brothers on outsmarting him and bestowed the gifts that would later on kill 2 of the 3 brothers. still bestowing not winning.
Novacification um actually this is all conjecture and no one truly knows what happened aside from the people who witnessed it
um actually, if that's the case the question is a moo point or a schrodingers cat question and all the answers are right and wrong.
From saying D&D is trash to playing kristen applebees and saying “this is a good game” in the first episode of d20, ally’s character development has come full circle
Um, actually it's "um, actually" instead of "um actually"
um actually it depends on how it is said
I mean, it's written correctly in the video background. Just not in the TH-cam title.
Jorian Intro Design Um; actually; semi-colons should be used rather than commas as the semi-colon is used to separate ideas
lol
James Yeoman or to initiate lists
That's the quality content I subscribed for.
Um Actually, you don't know what quality is.
darexinfinity the new videos definitely aren't quality
darexinfinity um actually, you're right their name is pearl
Julian Williams
Ugh, idiot. Can't even get one word right.
Julian Williams even if they are right, *YOU'RE* certainly not
I love seeing how this show evolved, but they definitely should've kept the iron throne
Fr, it's dope
Please release a board game. This show is right in my niche.
You realize that this would take like... no time to make, right? Get some note cards and a few friends, each of you writes down say.... 8 facts with a twist, and take turns reading them off. First to 6 points wins, and if anyone finds a falsehood in the part of your card that's supposed to be true, they get to steal one of your points.
David Romano 8 facts isn't enough the max thing a person could get would be 4 or 5 because the others would have a point and when you are at eight there's no other cards
Eight cards *each*. Everyone writes down their own eight facts, and takes turns being the questioner. If only one person writes them down, they can't play, because they know all the answers.
Um actually Ally is a 14 year old boy from the 1990s
KILL3R_WH4L3 GAMING jup
Um Actually: Orcs are magically enhanced klingons that where kidnapped by death eaters and turned to sith lords by the daleks by using the spell "Protection from alignment" on them and giving them infinity stones to allow use of requip magic!
yeah everyone knows this
These are never clever.
Um actually then are tortured and mutilated elves from the ancient past
Yea wasn’t this in the 43rd season of Star Wars the lord of the doctor returns?
Starwarznerd 27 yeah, right after season 3 of sherlock!
Um actually, the brothers didn't win the deathly hollows from death, he gave them to the brothers as a gift for outsmarting him
Um actually Zac only said that they did not get it from Grindelwald
Um, actually, that would mean they DID win them, through cunning.
SommerTimeSadness
Um actually the peveral brothers didn't really get the deathly hallows from death, that was just a fairytale they actually were just gifted dark wizards who created the hallows.
SommerTimeSadness were can I get your thumbnail picture from?
shadowguy22 no you don't actually know that, that's just dumbledore's opinion, plus no one ever said anything about them being dark wizards
Collegehumour has a video sponsored by a show that was based on a web series which they created... don't see that everyday
Um, actually you *can* see it every day... it's in truTV's videos. Granted, they won't all be new, but you get the point
+Jason Bashor Point goes to Jason

+Brendan O'Brien I'm one of them British so I can't help it

Make this an actual game already!! I have much gold!
Umm acctually i have a lot of gold
kisame um, actually its "I have ALOT of gold."

ITT: people misunderstanding a reference to HIMYM and trying to correct it
Um actually, Pokemon is spelled Pokémon.
"well, not a picture of the invisibility cloak" Um, actually, there's no reason not to. The cloak is only invisible when it's being worn.
The irony of Ally saying D&D sucks is everything to me
Insane, Right?
Totally bunkers! 6:06
please do oh no why is this trending again
Bruce Terry we have to wait for years tho
They need to wait until we have a new president, remember?
Extremist Garchomp or somebody famous dies.
happy hunting!
Um, actually, that's on a 4 years hiatus right now. Possibly 8 years.
I agree.
If this was an actual TV show I would definitely watch this XD
The most enjoyable thing about these are the off-the -script banter. Love it. Want more of these.
Um, actually the Deathly Hallows were not stolen from death. Zach was right. The the tales of death were fabricated over the years but even Dumbledoooor said he believes the Peverells were indeed just extremely gifted wizards who created these items.
conkerlive101 dumbledoor lmao
conkerlive101 Um, actually it's Dumbledore not Dumbledoor.
Umm, actually your honor in my defence I was baked as fuck when I posted this. Also I fixed it.
Thank you! Came down here just for this!
Um, actually the legend goes that death gave the items after they didn't die because they used magic to cross a raging river that should have killed them when they tried to cross. The first two were eventually claimed by death due to the items... but yes, on dumbledore's theory. there's also a fan theory that the veil in the department of mysteries and the pensieve were also made by the peverell brothers.
Um, actually Dumbledore says he thinks that the Peverell Brothers most likely just were very skilled wizards which created the Deathly Hollows themselves.
So technically you can't say Zac is wrong, because thats statement against statement (and even in the world of Harry Potter that explanation sounds more probable than the "death" one).
And please correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's Dumbledore who's saying this, in the King's Cross Scene. :-)
Um, actually it's the Deathly Hallows
Anonymous Person Sorry, wasn't sure about that one and didn't want to look it up (out of pure laziness). My only excuse is that I read the book in another language. ^^
I learnt that last fact from King of the Hill - 'my Dad used to mix up a big batch of it for the fourth of july'
Um actually, Qui-Gon fails to use a Jedi mind trick on Watto when he is trying to buy parts for the ship.
Um Actually, it's more true that they created the Deathly Hallows, winning it from Death was just the fairy tale... Too bad I don't have a twitter handle
i agree
Wes S Um Actually, even more correct that death created the Deathly Hallows and bequeathed them unto the brothers for besting death in a game of wits so winning works. Unless the books went somewhere else with that cause i didnt get that far into the novels XD
Edit: Bequeathed the materials that made it i mean
And if I am wrong please do explain lol would love to know how it actually went XP
Wes S YES YES YES
Wes S Um actually, you have no proof to your claim.
LunATiC taKeR You are wrong. It was explicitly stated in the book that Death was not the one to create the Hallows. It was instead said that they have no idea who made them. They assumed that the Peverell brother s created them
Um actually that jacket isn't really working with those jeans.
SASSY!
roasted
@Wendys do your roast back?
Um actually, those technically aren't jackets
Um actually, if you're talking about Trapp then that is a jacket he's wearing with jeans...
Ally: "Um actually, the Tarrasque is called trash because this game sucks"
Ally every Tuesday: "Hi, intrepid heroes!"
Um Actually the Peverells win the Deathly Hallows from Death according to Fairytale by Beedle the Bard. The Lore also suggests that they could have made them themself.
I think the key point was that Grindelwald did not create or gift the Deathly Hallows to the Peverells
Neel Parmar You're right. Technically. But the wanted explanation is not fully correct.
Um actually, Tolkien did create the modern image of orcs, but the word existed prior to LotR, being used by Europeans to refer to many different types of strange, monstrous things, up to and including the orca whale.
Anthony Castelucci Kut I have so many exciting corrections to live for! Who else will "um actually" when I'm gone.
This is the best Um Actually so far! More! More!
I see that Trooper helmet on the background, you know what we want CollegeHumor, do it!
I also want it back
You should definitely do more of these but bring Emily back
Ethan Hanna yesss, I miss Emily
I am glad that this series is back!
If Adam gets a show then why not this?
MulletEagle because his show is better in many ways
Because Adam's show is about a nerd correcting people.
Meanwhile, this show is a satire of said behaviour.
BTW, I'm just horsing around, love Adam's show.
MulletEagle because this is scripted fun and Adam is secular logic.
Because you can't just pull a TV show out of your ass. Even it were to be started right now, it'd take a long time to release
Jay Well It seems so natural, I didn't think it was satire at all. And before you say it can't be all natural, except for the host anyone who's a writer and does improve can sound like this. There may be some editing though.
who else has spent the last 4 episodes trying to work out if its satire or not...
Um, Actually it's a totally real game at this point
BlazingBanana yeah it seemed more like satire at first, but now it might be the only series where they're not acting and just being themselves, which is cool
But it seems so staged
AldiWiesel I mean their kinda awkward, and some parts are probably pre written, but after questions they ramble to much for it to be planned
Edit: *too
Sorry for any confusion
you read my mind
Um, Actually Bleach is an anime...
um actually its a video game too
Um, Actually Bleach is a manga by Tite Kubo serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump.
Um actually, Mike Trap is dead

Al inae UM ACHTUALLLLEE A THRONE IS A TYPE OF CHAIR, SO, HE IS TECHNICALLY CORRECT.
Staffaynu UmMmM AcTuAlLy then I can address you as Mammal from now on :P
I would tune into this all the time
Um, actually the Tarrasque is not unique to D&D, it's actually a monster from the french folklore
Anthropolitan Metropomorphic yay! you are the only other person ive seen who has mentioned this XD
Those terrible mistakes must be corrected XD
nope, you're just another mythology nerd
Anthropolitan Metropomorphic i have found a few others who mentioned it as well, their mistakes on myths and legends must be corrected!
XD
I've bee waiting for so long for this, i need this to continue please
Um, actually, orcs were not entirely Tolkien's creations. He based them off of a Greco-Roman myth which in turn were likely based off of whales (orca). Due to the vagueness in description of the first orc (there was only one in the myth), he likely didn't make the connection to whales and just assumed it was humanoid.
*BOOM!*
EvilUnicornLord um actually he based it off an old English word for demon, itself taken from the Roman god Orcus a god of warrior death.
Paranormal Encyclopedia um, actually, in Tolkien's Middle Earth, Orc is just another word from goblins, specifically it is the Westron translation for the Elvish word for goblins. Tolkien did create the Uruk, however, which is a separate creature
Bad Cactus umm actually, 'Uruk' is Black Speech for Orc; you're thinking of Uruk-hai which were bred from Orcs and men.
Orkus is a monster from Beowulf. Tolkien used many themes from Norse mythology.
@@lordofuzkulak8308 um actually^3, the uruk-hai were not part-men except in the Peter Jackson movie adaptation, and frankly that's one of the more bizarre and needless changes from the book. in the book, they're just really cool goblins.
Um, actually I love this show.
Um actually Qui-gon attempted to use the mind trick to buy the Hyperdrive but it didn't work so he went into the overly complicated bet that involved the pod race and Anakin
And then he used a Jedi power to move the dice to decide if the bet was on, which is pretty stupid.
TheSam3027 I was about to say that
So glad you are bringing back um actually!
I was just rewatching these earlier today 😂😂
Um, actually, orcs long predate Tolkien. For example, the Orlando Furioso makes reference to an orc (as a sea monster) and it was written 1516. The word "orc" has traditionally been used simply as a sort of generic monster name and could refer to anything monstrous.
You're getting the word confused with the thing itself. Tokens versus types, as it were.
The word predates Tolkien (of course), but the creature does not.
+Justin Z Um, actually your quibble was not phrased in the form of "Um, actually..." so I do not have to credit its merit.
Um, actually you're getting the word confused with the thing itself. Tokens versus types, as it were.
The word predates Tolkien (of course), but the creature does not.
Uh actually to be precise "orco" or the latin "orcus" from which "orc" clearly comes from is basically how "ogre" are called in Italian in pretty much every fairy tale. For instance the evil creature in the "Pussy in boots"? Orco. And Shrek in the Italian movie is? yes he's an "orco". Don't believe it? Then go to wikipedia, check "Ogre" and then switch to the Italian page. That's right "Ogre" -> "Orco". When the Lord of the rings was first published in Italian in order to avoid confusion they translated "orc" into "orchetto" (little ogre). Though nowadays pretty much every "orc" from Warhammer through D&D and to Warcraft is simply called "orco".
Thanx Tolkien...
This is why Tolkiens family couldn't sue it out if dnd. They were successful and seeing dnd to change ents to treants, Balrog to Baalor, and Hobbits to halflings
Um actually the tarasgue came from French folklore
Um, actually, its spelled Tarrasque, not tarasgue.
Um actually orcs are goblins, in the hobbit and two towers they are described as both goblins and orcs. Tolkien never distinguished between the two
Um, actually, yes they all the same, but let not forget that they are elves who where corrupted by the first dark lord Morgoth.
Um actually, the word "orc" is drawn from the Anglo-Saxon form of the French word "ogre". So, we could just as well assume that the orcs are just ogres (that's right, Shrek might have been an orc).
Um, actually, Tolkien did distinguish between the two to some extent--in his earlier, unpublished works. Later, "The Hobbit" mainly refers to goblins and "The LotR" mostly to orcs.

As for the origin of the word, Tolkien derived it from Old English "orcneas," which we can see appearing in context in "Beowulf." Old English is not drawn from French; OE is in the Germanic subdivision of the Indo-European language family, whereas French is from the Italic (includes Latin + Romance langs). After the Norman Conquest, Middle English emerged with Anglo-Norman French influences. While this was not a hard demarcation, the Beowulf manuscript is pretty solidly dated prior and may have been originally composed far earlier.
+Adam Hoffman: Thumb up for Shrek hilarity + thumb down for linguistics inaccuracy = slow clap + shrug + chuckle
Um actually the orcs were a race bred by Melkor
moore we want moore!!
сука XD good one :)
UM ACTUALLY! The Tarasque is from southern French folklore, your question had multiple answers! Where is my point?

IVE WAITED 12 YEARS
IN AZKABAN
Um, actually it's "I'VE", not "IVE" lol
José Gonçalves Um, actually, he's talking about a woman called Ive who waited 12 years to see CollegeHumor release any video, and this happened to be the first one she saw.
klop422 Too funny XD
Um, actually it's "I've done my waiting. 12 years of it, in Azkaban!"
"Wanna see my wallet?" is a criminally underrated line, holy hell that's hilarious
um actually, bleach is an anime that is part of what's known as "the big three" as in one of 3 animes that were vastly popular and also lasted a long time. the other two animes are one piece and Naruto
listing those three anime above dragon ball lol
shadowstarthe1st Um, actually, the likelyhood of consuming small measures of bleach (about a cup or so, or even just a good chug) and fatality are pretty low if you are a healthy person. It will, however, burn your insides and leave you in extreme amounts of pain. Enough the liquid, surely, will cause your lungs to fill with fluid and begin burning that tissue with 4 to 6 hours, but with medical care within that time, you can have the fluids drained with an even lower chance of death and extreme abdominal pain and tissue damage.
Easton Ho um actually the big three are the dragon ball franchise naruto and bleach
Yoyobanana um actually dragon ball is in a league of its own
Umm, actually, the plural of anime is anime.
Um Actually, Empire Strikes Back Was Episode 5, Not Episode 4
Um Actually, if you count Rogue One its 5
McStud Um Actually, Empire Strikes Back has Episode V (or 5) in the title, So Rogue One is actually 0
Scorching Shark I feel like 3.9 would be a more appropriate number for rogue one.

Um, Actually it's Ep. 5
1Xian the Minimalistㄣ um actually it's episode 4

Um Actually the Tarasque comes from the French folklore.
Top Top is france not part of europe
If you re-read the statement it said the Tarasque originated from D&D. ONly the first 4 creatures named it said came from European folk lore
Top Top Um, actually France is a part of Europe so it is correct.
Its cool that youre doing that in a style of normal programs like these!
Uhm, actually, I demand more of this.
Um actually, the tarrasque is based on middle age French mythology.
Jackson Tiberius 5th one! and earliest one ive seen too
Um actually both the Tarasque and Grell are both real world myths. The tarasque hailing from medieval Europe and the Grell is in Beowulf.
The Grell is in Beowulf? I thought the only monsters Beowulf fought were two giants and a dragon.
Um, actually, the tarrasque IS from European folklore, even if in D&Ds is a different creature.
Ruben Baita thats 3 other people so far
Um, actually Their twitter states about 40 people informed them of the connection to French folklore.
THIS SEEMS SO STAGED I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S REAL OR NOT AND IT DRIVES ME CRAZY
AldiWiesel what do you mean how does it seem staged?
You know you've been watching too much reality TV when reality starts to look fake.
TheReaverOfDarkness
Um actually, it's just the content that College Humor makes is often sarcastic.
