The idea of the Narking being the Australian opposite of the Yass Queen is truly the clearest example of why I have the notification bell on for this channel.
Too perfect!
King x Queen
💯
Julia truly is the Narr King to Jacob's Yass Queen
Same
Ah yes. The great Victorian New York accent. “Ay I’m strollin here”
Aye! Aye! Thou shall forgeth it!!
Badda bingeth badda boometh
ay I'm pippin and cheerioin heah
Idk how they didn’t think about narks.
Where a slice of New York pizza can be king.
Suggestion: artists draw ancient Greek words as characters. Simply so they can give Nathan 'merobibus' (to drink unmixed wine which only drunkards did).
MEROBIBA?
@@ryebread_draws I'm positive Merobiba would.
😂😂😂
Such bullying.
@@bluchismoon im merobiba
I can't believe they turned Karina into a Victorian chimney sweep just to keep her out of the episode.
HA
HA
HA
HA
HA
julia saved jacob's terrible Baqueenga joke with "the space bequeenga". But then jacob really one upped it with yas queen and nar king. Amazing comedy today
I need you all to know that there's a board game called Nanty Narking which is described on the box as "A truly victorian game of wit and podsnappery".
Podsnappery!
I love a bit of podsnappery. That's like an audio-only show right?
@@Yammenkowno that’s a podcast, podsnappery is a doctor that takes care of kids
@@transwithnoplans no that's a pediatrician. Podsnappery is that vegetable that looks like a white carrot
@@Yammenkowno no that’s a parsnip. Podsnappery is when people like you and you have friends
Nathan: *makes fingers more wiggly*
Me, involuntarily: "Southern wizard money gang. We love cursing kings. Legalize Nar-thing, bob."
This comment is sponsored by: the yas-queen government
I can hear this reference in my head, but I don't know where it's from 😞
I had a dream yesterday that Julia was a dragon attacking a cave and Nathan had to fend her off with bad jokes
Yeah that tracks
you meant *nightmare
(nah im joking that really is the dream)
I mean…weird…but also it makes sense.
So, you know, a normal day in Drawfee.
Just give her a milkshake
"Bang up to an Elephant" makes a lot of sense, actually. Because being "Bang Up" means that you're trustworthy and because Elephant's never forget, being "Bang up to an Elephant" means youre never done anything untrustworthy.
Arfarfanarf is obviously a legal team of three dog lawyers. “Did your hooman trick you by acting like they were throwing the ball, but they didn’t actually throw the ball? You may be entitled to pets and treats.”
This is where my mind went too lol. Our firm Arf Arf n' Arf is here for you, call today! 😂
I must assume that Karina gets timesick in time machines. She missed Merobiba, now she missed Victorian Era...
Karina is sub-temporally grounded
karina acts too gen z so the time machine is confused about how much to de-age her and she ends up scrambled
Julia rendering her drawing like a new yorker comic absolutely SENT me she is so fucking funny it hurts
One would think they'd refrain from using this format with Julia, Jacob and Nathan... Last time they did a "historical language" they got Merobiba.
Merobiba was a blessing
Love that the sequel to Merobiba is Narking
@@casparnguyen4939is Merobiba the daughter of the Yass Queen and the Narr King??
@@aandyy4791can't believe Yass Queen got turned into a bear 😔
"They're hot and a dog." Somewhere far away, Karina feels the urge to say "Legoshi".
He became El Goshi in Forts episode
Wow, I can't believe Karina stole a loaf of bread and got sentenced to Australia, the worst prison in the British Empire
Nar
Oi, don't be f*ckin rude ♥️💛🖤🇦🇺
This means that next Victorian episode Karina returns, gets her razors back, and murders a judge while Julia's baking pies.
@@howareyoumoreofaclownthanmewh.... _what's in the pies---_
@@mjamin9124a bomb 💣
Well, this has taught me that slang has always been nonsense, but it peaked in the Victorian Era
I dunno, I kind of like the ones from the 1920s to 1940s U.S. too.
Except arfarfan' arf, which is about half pints or 'arf pints as they would say. Half pint half pint and half pint, arfarfan'arf
@@WlatPziuppexactly they were ragging on how silly it looked but as someone who is (regrettably) british thats the only one that immediately made some kind of sense to me
@@bluchismoonyou’re speaking straight dick. Bully! 🧐
I think Julia was going for a "You haven't seen me and a witch in the same room" joke.
Could y’all please do one where you each pick a few songs and try to depict some of the lyrics in a drawing while everyone else tries to guess the song? It would be so fun
Drawfee on rubberross’ “artists guess songs” when
@@cavenaga383okay that idea is so unhinged and epik i wanna see the "vr twitch streamers guess songs based on drawings" but with drawfee
I think they've done this before actually!
"Ey, why do I have like sixty million children?" - Queen Victoria
"Oh, right, because my husband was the guy they named that piercing after"
It certainly wasn't the Nar King
@@loadeddice4696that was actually her son. Also, young prince Albert (Al jr) was, by many accounts, quite the erotic adventurer.
You see, the "million children" whom the queen becried is but a metaphor for the citizens of the vast British Empire.
@@mellertid That comment was a quote not a question
I love how Julias identity can never be perceived. Is she a witch this episode now? I thought she was a vampire? Wasnt she an eldritch creature? or a robot? wait she drew herself as a ghost wearing a paper pag. Oh wasnt she a-
Julia is a weeping angel from Dr. Who. She only has physical form while being observed
Julia is who I aspire to be
I almost died laughing thinking of Italian mob bosses using Victorian Slang like this.
I think the bad business scheme in Pinocchio makes it extra scary. He is not evil for profit, he is just evil. The donkeys probably just barely keep the business afloat, but its not about the money. Now in scared.
Suggestion: do the medieval bestiary episode again! Please.
I second this!
Suggestion; Drawing Pokémon based on their names in another language; round 2.
I think you should specifically pick French names, not because I want Julia to host but because I think it would be funny to watch her *squander* an advantage. Bonus points if you ask Karina to try pronouncing them (she does not do non-phonetic spelling and I think that’s neat).
Drawfee is the only show that makes me legitimately slap my knee. "Hi, ho" got me and I'm not ashamed to admit it
This whole episode is like the opposite of "Hello fellow kids" like..."Hello fellow ancestors"
Watching this with my niece and she immediately decided that we should be greeting/saying goodbye to each other with Arfarfn'arf from now on. If in a few years I'm asked why we do this, I'll point them to this episode. Arfarfn'arf!
And a walum duigi to ya!
@@eyeofthebeholder_Early Whedon to you too
The whole bit between Nathen and Jacob at 6:12 really makes it sound like Jacob wants to "A cask of amontillado" Nathen.
Who doesn't want to invite their best friends to their cellar to share a fins vintage?
Requiescat in pace, my friend.
No see the actual curse is that every time he wants to say 'nar' then he has to say it 90 times in a row. He can still say 'yes' just fine.
adhd acting up making my audio processing a disaster so as I listened to this episode feeling as though I was listening to a bunch of sims speak to each other a single thought entered my head and that was “I don’t think humans have ever made sense”
So it was not umble-cum-stumble then
I love when they all slip into a New York accent.
The visual of the Red Sox caps getting switched out for Mets caps when they slipped from Boston into New York was so good
my mom's a whovian and a bostonian, so i was legally obligated to send her the first thirty seconds or so
cut off after julia got the hat, but right before the rest of them did
for the humorous abruptness
"Have you ever heard an Australian shanty?" *Cape Cod Girls* ends each call-and-response couplet with "We're bound away for Australia" if that counts...
😂 working class man 😂
Bound for South Australia
I immediately busted into "Bound for Botany Bay"
oh no, it looks like Drawfee just dropped my new comfort episode. i can already see me watching this over and over again
The setup of this video is just primed to give us the next Merobiba.
I feel Julia being so tired she went loopy had as much to do with Merobiba as the set up.
Wow, that new york definition of "one month's notice" is wild.
In my corner of the world it works the other way around, where "one month's notice" means until the end of the next month.
So if someone gave notice on the 31st of august then the notice would run to, and including, the last day of september, but if they had instead given notice the 2nd of august it'd still have run until the last day of september
@Drawfee Drawing suggestion: draw each other into an isekai. Example- Nathan is king of dinosaurs in a prehistoric world; Karina uses a Digimon deck in a YuGiOh-esque dimension; Julia is a Drawtective in an isekai full of vampires; and Jacob is the leader of a bunch of little guys rebelling against hot villains.
Every time I see this suggested I like it
I've seen this one before from you (probably you) and it sounds like a fun time
caveman Nathan would rule
I would love this so much hehe
yes yes, continue suggesting this
I'm not even a third of the way in. Love that 1. Julia asked if they'd ever seen her in the daytime, despite talking about wizards which have NOTHING about only being out at night, 2. Nathan had to think about it, and 3. Nathan had to think about it while they were recording DURING THE DAY. Julia is truly powerful.
"No shanties from Australia" Are we just going to ignore South Australia or Botany Bay?
Right? South Australia is literally one of the most famous shanties!
Thank you! I literally started singing Botany Bay as soon as they said it (although yes technically not „shanties“, neither is the Wellerman but that doesn‘t stop anyone)
Day 23, why don't you make starter pokemon? Nathan could make the grass line, Jacob the water line, Karina the fire line, and Julia makes the professor, I would love it
Draw Drawfee-original characters like they were painted with Neopets paintbrushes
"Bang up" is still pretty commonly used in England, like saying "you've done a bang up job"
We are 7 episodes into the Drawfee new year with 0 references to Cats 2019.
Drawing suggestion: Drawing new crytpids for obscure roadside attractions in America.
Y E S CRYPTIDS
Nature is healing
Can one of those cryptids be Skimbleshanks?
@@liam6396 The railroad cat will tapdance on my grave.
Cats 2019 isn't real and it can't hurt you
One of my favorite things is when a bizarre word or prompt comes up and Nathan just repeats in with a soft tone of amused awe and delight.
Jacob: "The word I choose is... 'arfarfan'arf!'"
Nathan: "_Arfarfan'arf~!_ :D"
so i like to listen to drawfee when i fall asleep, which leads to some weird dreams. last night i had a dream where the four of them were a crime gang, and i was a kid they adopted for some reason. and julia was so motherly and taught me how to do the crime stuff (idk) cause she was the mob boss. and then the cops came and chased us and they had to hide me in their closet. i have no idea, but ive never felt so safe in a dream.
SPEED DRAWING SUGGESTION: advertisement posters for a nonsense product, like a yell-powered bicycle or a handheld toaster, idk but I know y'all would have fun, and Nathan would riff SO hard.
If someone made a randomizer that would add a food/product/service to a household appliance would be great. Like a shower grill or a swimming bat.
I love that two of the three Julia dog examples were courage
I feel like umblecomstumble was just a fun way of saying understandable.
Like when people say edumacated, organozized, pusgetti, or mischievious.
I'm pretty sure Julia accidentally perfectly rendered the leader of the Killer Bees in Windwaker! She CAN do characters!
Watching Drawfee is always a nanty narking time
1:58 "The space baqueenga!" bit had me scrambling to hit that like button.
Southern wizards are pretty scary, especially the grand ones
oh god
take my 👍 and get outta here
The expression and wigglefingers on Nathan's wizard are incredibly funny to me. Thank you, good Nathan.
the legs of arfarfn'arf looks like they make Mr.Krabs sounds when walking xD
Nanty Narking is a Victorian Nancy Drew but instead of being a cool teen detective she's a NARC
if Karina had been here and tasked with "arfarfan'arf" i firmly believe we would've gotten the story of 3 wolf brothers or something who run a law firm
Yo the way that Julia rendered hers is immaculate
“ have you ever heard of an Australian shanty I haven’t, which means it doesn’t exist”
My Tall Ship sailor brain at full volume: IIINNNN SOUTH AUSTRALIA I WAS BORN
SINGIN TOORALIE TOORALIE ADDITY, SINGIN TOORALIE TOORALIE-AYYYY
Honestly Arfarfan'arf is the most adorable name for a Cerberus ever
Nathan’s laugh is one of my favorite things ever 😂 I can’t help but laugh along with him
Ah yes, the famous actor Benedict Umbercumbstumble.
Y’all, the theme park-> donkey pipeline was actually the cleaned up version of the story. The original story had the cat and the fox mug Pinocchio for some gold and then they hung him from a tree. The change in the story was a demand from the publishers who wanted more of Pinocchio. So yeah. That’s the “better than mugging and murder” apparently. 😶 Guess it’s good they changed it, not sure Disney could have done much with that ending…
Yh i remember hearing about pinnochio being a gory story
Best Victorian phrase: BAZINGA!
Queen Victoria herself was famous for shouting "BAZINGA!" as she strolled around Windsor Castle.
not sure if this is something you guys could do, but it would be cool if you could turn on the option to allow the community to subtitle episodes! i know i rely on subtitles a good amount so it's always nice when it's not just auto-generated ones, and i know i personally would be happy to contribute writing some myself!
unless something has changed recently, i imagine drawfee would allow community captioning, except for the fact that youtube got rid of that feature permanently a couple years ago :( i personally would also love to try captioning some videos, but the option just isn't available for anyone anymore. a lot of people tried to protest it because it's a huge site-wide blow to accessibility, since not every youtuber has the time/energy to caption their videos themselves, but as far as i'm aware that's still the state of things
@@nothanks645 NOOOO WHAT that sucks so bad! i had no idea though, thank you for letting me know
I saw Return to Oz as a kid, it scared the heck out of me. Watched it as an adult, I was right to be scared.
I was TERRIFIED of the Wheelers as a kid…and I still am.
The amount of times I could HEAR Karina shout "NO. WHAT ARE YOU SAYING" in response to the various Australian accents
King said I can't lull my beautiful children to slumber by singing them an old sailor's touching lyricism about getting busy 9 times nightly. Gotta invent some shif about sheep or whatever
The themepark-visitors-to-donkeys business model is actually probably very lucrative.
If you compare the business model to an actual theme park, the cost of maintaining the park is entirely sustained by admission price and sale of food/merchandise. So if you could sell a donkey for at least what it costs to buy a ticket and a shirt and maybe a meal, you're making round about the same money as a theme park. But when you factor in that donkey island doesn't need any employees, or at least only a very scant few, they probably make quite a bit. And I don't know what a donkey back in the day was worth but I know horses were SUPER expensive so donkeys are probably worth a good bit too i'd imagine.
Besides, if I remember correctly, I think they were sent off to do manual labor in a mine or something right? If that's true, it means any individual donkey only has to do enough labor to repay what their short stint of time in the park was worth, and anything beyond that all the way up until their death from forced labor is pure profit. The park wouldn't even have to run year round, he could have a very clear idea as to the number of donkeys needed and round up just enough boys to cover it and only do it once a year. At that point, he wouldn't even need staff really, he could do all the repairs and replacements himself as he'd have all year long to do it.
It is rather dark, but you could also imagine it as bringing a bunch of cheap, free beer and distributing it to people until they passed out drunk then selling them into slavery while they were unconscious. You're going to net more money than it costs to do.
Film Theory did an episode explaining this exact thing.
Suggestion: There are many characters based on the 7 Deadly Sins, how about characters based on the 7 Heavenly Virtues.
Or
Suggestion: Draw Horror Icons as Magical Girls.
There's a series of Japanese anime figures by Kotobukiya, I think, that are shoujo versions of horror movie villains... it's very odd...
So very excited to see some oldtimey slang gain all new meaning!
finding out the definition made me think, "Who let the dogs out? ARF ARF AN'ARF!!!"
Hahah! Perfect. And yes, I sang it in my head.
Yay! They did my episode suggestion!!!! I'm so excited!!!😊
Is a nanny shanty just the songs that Mary Poppins sings?
oh I am PUMPED
Suggestion: New TMNT characters based on other classical artists!
I so want a TMNT team of Picasso, Mondrian, Dali, and Magritte.
Suggestion: There's a lot of insane Scooby Doo (Dip) movie and show titles out there. What if you gave each other Scooby Doo movie/show titles and tried to draw a character you think could fit in them. Or you could give the names of characters from that movie/show and draw what you think they'd look like. Some good movie/show titles include, The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo, Scooby Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf, Scooby Doo mand Batman: the Brave and the Bold, and, my personal favorite, Scooby Doo and Kiss: Rock and Roll Mystery.
Haha I’m glad Julia said something about the little owl face, cuz I saw it to lol
I can't wait to find out what new word(s) are going to take over my brain for the next several months :3
Suggestion: Karina gives the other three the first and last stages of a digimon and they have to fill in the blanks
First as in baby/in-training or rookie?
@@HazeEmry probably baby because they’re just so small and different from the rest lol
This would be great lol
I can't believe they brought up Jim Carrey without mentioning yes man. The movie where Jim Carrey is forced to say yes to everything
Cowa-bunqueenga!
Bazinga is my favorite Victorian slang
Speed Draw Suggestion: Finishing off *each others CHILDHOOD drawings*
Similar to the 'Finishing each others line art' episode. But adding in the old 'Redrawing our childhood drawings' episodes.
Interpreting each others childhood scribbles into full artistic beauty ~☆
This show is my favorite stress relief. Group of friends hang out and do an activity they love while losing their minds laughing at eachothers nonsense. It's so soothing and I have laughed myself to tears so many times listening to y'all ❤😂
In the gerrymandered district episode you added info in the edit. That is what content viewers call infotainment. My suggestion is an intentional infotainment episode. I like and subscribe. So glad you do art for fans.
I love how such American accents came out of these old Victorian slang phrases
Hey, could y'all continue the "handsome men" and "raddest women" series with one about nonbinary people? Use whatever adjective you want but personally I'd like to suggest "fancy nonbinary people"!
Would love this a lot!
Damn you're very persistent with this aren't ya?
That would be really cool!
As a nonbinary person I think it'd be super cool but at this point idk how they wouldn't have seen it so I'm worried
Theydies, gentlethems, thembos, a pretty theyby, Fluidians, my Andro-G's!, a themfluencer, an atheylete, a themgineer, a handythem, a particularly hot barthemder, a secret theygent, people going to a Mxr, someone feeling enbyous...
gosh the idea of arfarfan'arf as a cerberus was so good !!
As a southerner I really appreciate the research Drawfee put into undertsanding southern culture and etiquette to create an accurate scenario for the curse.
'cause darling I'm a narking dressed like a yass queen
Suggestion: Holidays as Dark Soul bosses.
Hanukkah and Día de Muertos come to mind.
Ooh
Like the Hanukkah creature has a menorah ??? For a head, and you gotta put out the flames on the candles to win
35:35 i had a similar experience recently when i discovered the "babirusa" while watching tv. i was like WHAT IS THAT ANIMAL HOLY SHIT
I like the idea of Jacob just going on a rant about how much he hates Nathan on the speaker thinking that its broken then acts all normal when he lets Nathan in.
I know that the Drawfee crew probably doesn’t know this (so no disrespect) but psa: DON’T RIDE ELEPHANTS! It’s really bad for their backs and can cause permanent spinal damage to them!
yes! many places that used to offer elephant rides no longer do so, and the best thing we can do to help put an end to the rest is spread the word and only go to places that aren't doing it
I can’t believe Jacob drew Blue from Blue’s Clues as Freddy Fazbear.
3:56 I hate to burst your bubble but botany bay, which I think is one of the more wrll known shanties, is about Australia
16:52 also the reason is simple, the ones writing the laws were landlords or whatever the equivalent at the time would have been, and didn't actually care about their working class constituents
I keep forgetting about the new portraits and Everytime Jacobs little shit comes up I get jump scared (not in a bad way, just surprised)
Little note for people travelling to places like India and Thailand. Don't ride elephants. In order to make them submissive to humans and train them they're taken from the wild from their mothers as babies and kept in cages and beaten until their will is completely broken. It seems less bad than the circus shows because your out in the wild with them but the abuse is essentially the same level of fucked up. If you wan't more information or citations just search 'don't ride elephants' or anything to that degree.
The photo on that Mental Floss article is Edwardian. They had literally six decades of Victorian to pull from, four and a half of which were after photography became popular and somewhat accessible, and they got it wrong.
And the first phrase! Is pre Victorian! Mental Floss is hardly a bastion of journalistic legitimacy, but come on.
damien dream daddy bloodmarch is that you
Suggestion: you know those old infomercials that would use buzz words like "Featuring [______]-technology!"? (ex: Flexdisc Technology, Neverdull Technology) Draw devices/characters that feature new technologies generated by random adjectives!
Wow a Dave Matthews reference on the anniversary of Dave dumping dookie on a tourist boat. You guys were really on the ball with this one.
