One thing that was not mentioned was the reason the "how to get into heaven" page was blank was because Bill said the writing would be invisible to people with sinful thoughts. So it's not that he doesn't believe in heaven. It's that he thinks we are all freaks.
Me and my friends were going on a trip through Oregon, and one of my friends (Jamcat) picked up the book of bill. The next day we went through Salem, and then thunderstorms started, I got sick, and we had trouble navigating through the city. A few days later, Jamcat found a part in the book where Bill Cipher says to "look out for his work in Salem." Bill deadass tried to ruin our trip.
Had something like this happen to me and my friends in school. My friend brought the book of bill at school, and when we summoned bill in the book, a ,ouple minutes later, the lights. Went. Out. Everyone celebrated because people thought we were gonna go home, but the teachers kept us in school, and instead of going home early. Everything was just really, really, hot. And the lights turned to life. Bill gave us hope, and decided to rip it out of our hands.
@arsonzartz BRO. ITS A KID SHOW. THEY DID NOT HAVE S*X. THATS JUST SOMETHING PEOPLE MADE UP, SO WHAT IF ITS CANON? THEY DIDNT HAVE S*X A triangle is a polygon with three corners and three sides, one of the basic shapes in geometry. The corners, also called vertices, are zero-dimensional points while the sides connecting them, also called edges, are one-dimensional line segments. A triangle has three internal angles, each one bounded by a pair of adjacent edges; the sum of angles of a triangle always equals a straight angle (180 degrees or π radians). The triangle is a plane figure and its interior is a planar region. Sometimes an arbitrary edge is chosen to be the base, in which case the opposite vertex is called the apex; the shortest segment between base and apex is the height. The area of a triangle equals one half the product of height and base length.
Something that people should know is that basically nothing in this video is new. The book's been decoded by many, many folks over on reddit and discord, and someone on Twitter's video on the silly string pages- around the 18:00 mark- has been used without credit.
Ah yes. The ORACLE is who Bill is talking about with his angsty ex references. No other character, obviously. Not like there's a whole section dedicated to a character who has a close relationship with Bill. Historians will call them roommates or whatever.
This huge Gravity Falls boom that came with the book of Bill had better either be teasing or have inspired a continuation to the show, perhaps a late arriving new season, similarly to what Phineas and Ferb got.
Hopefully the continuation is going to be a spin-off about Stan and Ford’s adventures. That is kind of the main way the story can continue with out being ruined by Disney for more content.
Alex Hirsch has previously stated that any future seasons will not be sequels, so it will hopefully be a prequel for stan and ford maybe? Not sure what else it could be.
okay so basically the oracle/"jessie" didnt date bill. she became too powerful and found out a way to defeat bill. we see this in journal 3 when the oracle gives ford the metal plate in his head, she know how to block him out of the mindscape.
YES! Finally someone said it! The fact that the vid doesn't explain the crossed paragraph about The Oracle itches my brain so much. Not only that, she figured out how the portals work and transferred the Hechmaniacs far away from Bill. I hope they better explain it in the next video cuz the Oracle ex theory doesn't have a good foundation
Love how like 90% of the comments are people Telling you to credit the people who really decoded this(r/gravityfalls and its corresponding discord) The other 10 is people talking about you just ignoring the billford hints.
@@RainyDay5XD basically they took stuff from posts other people made word for word and didn't credit. It's like copying an essay for a school project online and pasting it in a word doc without saying you did so.
Really? No mention of Ford? That was so strongly implied...not saying Billford is a thing, but it was a 'Thing', take what you will. It impacted Bill to the point of revenge on an emotional level.
His "revenge" was never a thing, the whole weirdmaggedon event couldn't be called "revenge", they definitely had a thing, but that was just one-sided relationship, in which Bill probably neglected Stanford.
@@Koranimorir good job youve figured out toxic relationships exist!!! bill obviously manipulated and abused ford but they were still in a relationship and bill literally got drunk at a bar after they split (also if u type breakup/divorce into the website it gives u a card for the bar bill went to in the book)
Am SO SAD they didn't even mention bill and cipher's situation ship, I wouldn't call it a relationship cause of how it was implied (and cause people will come after me) because this situation ship is actually really important for bill's past and overall history 😞😞
I have a feeling he’s a bit embarrassed to mention that ford and bill are a couple, I ship bill and ford through and through. It’s kinda funny how I’ve had dreams of bill aswell
At the part with bill saying he has no exes is because he still loves this one ex he has and it is... Ford it says in the book they had a relationship then they broke it off leading to bill getting drunk and calling his dead mom. I think the girl that was crossed out was just a friend that turned good on bill and left the group
R/gravityfalls has really done the work on this it's been on of the coolest community projects everyone that was a fan came together for this so some credit to the fans that really put in the hours on this would be appreciated
Jessie wasn't Bill's ex! She betrayed Bill by telling Ford about the portal real function! Bill's ex it's most likely Ford (since in the books it's very obvious how close they where to one another, even if it wasn't something physicaly but emotionaly abusive in both ends)
There's no point for him to hide that implied "EX" is Ford, because he talks about Ford in other pages, and for Gravity Falls..it seems too obvious, don't you think so? Obviously it's probably not right
Wild that there's so much focus on the "Jheselbraum being Bill's ex" theory (plausible, But) when there's So Much pointing to Ford being his ex-Something, all the romantic (albeit definitely manipulative/abusive) language and subtext/references surrounding those two are very clear
You should learn to differentiate a farmer/livestock relationship with what you want to be true. Bill treats him as a beloved lamb of a flock(victims), and Ford treats him as a beholder of vast wisdom. The way Bill has always treated Ford goes against literally anything that would imply this as true. A better comparison of this is how you had a favorite toy that you used until it broke. The only way they could be "exes" is in a non-romantic way, like Joker and Batman, which is a surprisingly similar scenario.
My main problem with this theory is the oracle part, while yes billford isn’t cannon (coming from a billford shipper) it has way more dang proof then bill dating the oracle. All they needed to do was read the dang book (which they admitted they literally skimmed through it.) and they would’ve understood it so much better. It’s honestly kinda disappointing seeing as gravity falls is one of mat’s favorite animated shows. With the oracle all they did was just see this random person crossed out, figured out it was the oracle, then assumed that the only logical answer was they dated. There’s no actual concrete proof, only speculation, and yes I know it’s a theory but still theory’s are supposed to have actual evidence, at this point this is a hypothesis. Like I said at least billford has actual proof. My second problem with this is the lack of crediting to r/gravityfalls, I’m aware they’ve added credits now, but they should’ve done it in the first place. Not to mention they skimmed over the silly straw page! They literally only mentioned the upside message. Really disappointed as someone who’s been watching team theorists for a while, you guys used to make amazing theories now it just feels like you just throw stuff together without any actual knowledge. I know y’all are busy but you guys knew book of bill wasn’t gonna be simple, not to mention everything that’s in this theory (except the oracle) isn’t even a theory, it’s just stating what we know. Maybe they’ll fix something’s in part two but for now I’m disappointed.
I mean there’s really nothing to talk about it. As it doesn’t matter seeing as Ford have an absolute loathing for Bill. Whatever relationship they had doesn’t matter as it happened in the past.
@friendlyghosthost1830 i mean sure, but either way my point is that there is basically no solid proof for the oracle being his ex, atleast in comparison to it being ford, which there is a LOT
@tiffymist yeah it's actually nuts, like i don't wanna say that they purposely avoided it, but it's so odd to me that there's no mention of it, like even slightly
Fun fact for those of you who aren’t on the TikTok side of things, Songwriter and Gravity Falls theory enthusiast Terminally Silly actually wrote and posted a cover of the song “Rockabye Baby”, from the perspective of Bill’s mother. According to them, after the video was posted, their power went out. 3. Separate. Times.
IDK what brought you to the conclusion that the Onacle is Bill's Ex... Girlfriend? And not just an Ex Member of Bill's Hinchmaniacs. If that were the case, I would imagine that Bill would dedicate more time talking about HER, rather than a certain six figure nerd he was pretty hung up on.
Watch the GTLive where Mat goes over the book, they talked about this how and part of how they came to that conclusion, I dont have the exact timestamp but it’s a good video anyway
Book of Bill: Has Bill describe romance as handcuffing yourself to a mortal, describes romantic things Bill would do as things he literally does to Stanford, has Stanford's own niece describe Bill as a clingy ex, has Stanford INTERRUPT parts of the book to tell you that Bill is dangerous Game Theory: Uhhhhh Bill's ex is this random lady because she used to be a Henchmaniac and is a girl also our boss's kid said so
Except Ford learned about Bill's backstory from Jessie. Could Bill have had a crush on Ford? Yes. Did Ford have feelings? Obviously not. And I hope it stays that way. Gravity Falls was not designed for these kinds of implications and Ford is already not the most beloved of characters.
@@katy2176-p3m Gravity Falls, whatever Alex Hirsh's intentions, is not... is not a show like Steven Universe. Let's put it that way. Abnormal and even toxic relationships do not stand at the foundation of Gravity Falls. On the contrary, the show is based on promoting family values, even if it did have some... questionable life lessons sometimes (the unicorn episode is the biggest one I can think of).
@@mario_cipher933 i get the "the ex is ford" but do you guys really think HE wrote the codes?? and how would he have gotten all that info into Bill's psyche?? we know Ford didn't know that much about his past as to know he's "haunted" by it. it's not the point they're making. though prob they should have said like "appart from ford, one of his OTHER exes was probably the oracle"
Brings up ex’s and doesn’t even mention the implications about Ford and Bill. I mean just the kareoke and O’sadleys pages alone tell their story not to mention his melt down. That wasn’t a “I lost my latest pawn meltdown” that was a “I lost my beloved partner and acted super irrationally now he’ll never want me again”
Yeah... no. I'm pretty sure it was one-sided honestly. Ford saw Bill as his 'Muse' so something clearly more inspirational, than traditionally romantic. Bill for sure liked Ford though. Dude was probably the first person to let him in a mind in centuries, not to mention that Ford actually built the portal. The final nail in the coffin is the book itself compared to the show: Ford clearly moved on from his obsession with Bill, implying that his attachment was less personal compared to Bill's, who clearly took the end of their partnership very hard.
Maybe it's just a joke. Can friends not participate in karaoke. Also, yeah, of course, Bill Cipher would be upset about the falling out with Ford, considering the fact it could've led to him letting his buddies out of the Nightmare Realm.
@@MYSTERIOUS-r9nconsidering the fact that alex fought so hard for lgbtq representation against disney, i don't think it's a joke, alex isn't that type of person, he fought so hard just for two women to be all lovey dovey in the love god episode and fought so hard just for blubs and darland to have some time together.
@@MYSTERIOUS-r9n in the book of bill bill says the best way to get someone to fall for you is locking them in a stone pyramid and sing to them until they eventually give up. which is exactly what he tried to do with ford in the show.
@@Wendeta-hq2cp "Ford clearly moved on from his obsession with Bill, implying that his attachment was less personal" You shouldn't be obssessed with someone you like, and that wouldn't make Ford's attachment less personal. the books is from Bill's perspective, but Ford clearly show's a lot of personal feelings towards Bill - hence why he feels so betrayed by Bill's actions. But Bill took it harder because he was more obssessed and unhealthy - since he doesn't think like a normal human.
@@jeffreyu6786 It’s not fetish? The Book of Bill literally displays the relationship between Bill and Ford as being more than a friendship multiple times in the lost Journal 3 pages, with Bill often being shown as Ford’s abuser in what can only be described as a situationship. Mabel literally refers to Bill’s behavior towards Ford as being obsessed over an ex.
11:23 Cipher's little eye, since his birth, let him see the third dimension. The ARG dives into this so next time you'll note it, no doubt. But he even lost his mother and his father.
hi! please make sure to credit the community of the r/GravityFalls! they made lots of effort to solve a bunch of the mysteries, staying up for ages to the point the mods had tell them to take breaks. its disappointing to see the lack of credit given. :(
completely agree. was very active in the subreddit when the book and website released. These fans worked extremely hard and if the mysteries they solved are being used they should be given credit!
I doubt they will most of their theories they always act like they discovered everything but really didn’t the community did and then they just compile it it all together
the billford erasure is crazy. id rather they not talk abt bills relationships at all than make one up for the sake of keeping bill STRAIGHT 🇺🇸🇺🇸🏈🏈🏈🦅🦅🦅🦅
tbf i think the primary reason they covered it is because ollie (matpat's son) kinda came up w it haha. so i will give them that. it's not a bad theory for coming from a 6 year old hahaha
@@gottagoquack right but if they were gonna do that they could’ve talked about the real present relationship dynamic in the serious part of the video instead of leaving it out entirely
I love how they thought "hm, who's Bills ex, the nerdy six fingered guy that he's obsessed over and literally broke down sobbing at the bar, and has a whole chapter written about Sixer, or the one scribbled out paragraph" 🤔
please credit sources! lots of folks said it already, but the awesome people of R/GravityFalls (and the corresponding discord, i believe, correct if wrong) did a huge huge majority of the work when it came to decoding and theorizing! it's never cool to steal someones hard work! Edit- WOWIE- I expected this comment to go unnoticed, thank y’all for replying / liking!! I’d like to say, for those folks telling me that the description was updated , thank you so much! It makes me incredibly happy! Secondly, when I originally posted this comment, there was no credit to the sources. If there was credit when the video was originally posted, I doubt I and many others would have felt the need to comment asking for such. Nonetheless!! It’s really happy they did the right thing!
there’s a high chance he won’t see these comments but if he does I’m pretty sure he will fix the mistake if he doesn’t he probably never checked the comments to the video
@@ominus_potato nah I read it. It’s just that that’s not what happened, and this is a theorizing video. So you can just stick to your weird bill and ford kissing videos buddy.
Notice how all the codes in the glitch cypher refer to bill as Billy and talk about his childhood in Euclidia? It seems to be like it’s most likely Bill‘s mother scalene since the Oracle would have no way of knowing what happened in Euclid on such a personal level
I don't know if this is true but it's been pointed out a bunch of times in the gravity Falls discord and Reddit that Euclid is his father and Euclydia is his home dimension with Scalene being his mother,, literally no clue tho, just sharing what I've seen :3
That would make sense although it is included that his mother is confirmed to be dead a trillion years before he even wrote that book. I believe it's the Axolotl purely because the codes are commonly rhyming couplets which is the exact rhythm and pattern he speaks especially when talking to Dipper and Mable in a canon comic to talk about Bill.
Or uh... The Howling Void? The character that there's literally pictures of him holding hands with in the book? The one he denies dating an overabundant amount of times?
@@captainsprinkles6557…Bill doesn’t love like most people do, if he’s holding hands it’s most likely deal making, and considering how Ford talks about Bill and their relationship then vice verse then I think it’s safe to say it was a very one sided relationship
@@Fl0wers4rePr3tty I didn’t say that they didn’t miss eachother, just saying they had different thoughts on the relationship, they were co-workers and possibly more, it is still pretty vague about their relationship but the hints are definitely there, and considering we’re getting more Gravity Falls content, it won’t be long for us to wait until our answers
It’s not erasure because it’s not the first priority, because it’s just a weird internet ship that’s not canon, does not add anything to the story, and will 100% steer us in the wrong direction of this hunt. So thanks for your time.
@@Liamguy999"does not add anything to the story" my guy have you WATCHED gravity falls or the book of bill? Sure the ship isn't canon but ford and bill "situationship" definately add so much to the story. Ford was definately obsessed with bill to the point he made a whole room dedicated to bill and apparently from bill mouth (or eyes idk) he said that weirdmaggedon wouldn't happened if it wasn't because of Ford, and Ford no longer wanting to keep the machine going definately makes bill not so happy.
@@Liamguy999 It’s most definitely not a “weird internet ship”. have you read the book of bill past this video? there is SO many implications that they had some sort of relationship. whether platonic or not. And its not just the book, also the show. its been hinted SO much. if i didn’t know any better I’d say you read the book and watched the slow blindly. or you just skipped those parts.
@@3xpl0rer_png the joke in the book is that they’re ACTING like toxic exes. Believing the book of bill as evidence requires you to completely miss the joke. Also have you failed to realize that bill never stopped his plan to manipulate ford? Bill had no feelings for ford. Because he’s a chaos demon who manipulated him.
hey everyone, just wanted to let people know that some of the info and theories were taken from the r/gravityfalls server to a point its word for word. Please give us credit where credit is due as its super unfair our hard works been taken without credit
Love the video but as one of the people who solved the silly straws I kinda wish you guys credited the discord/subreddit for solving all the codes mentioned in the video Edit: Seems like proper credit is being added to the description soon, glad to see it happen but slightly disappointed it come to this. On a side note though, as a game/film theory fan for nearly 10 years now, to know that my google doc of codes had a direct impact on an episode is pretty amazing. Still have a large amount of respect for the team as they help inspire new waves of decoders and theorists
LET'S NOT EVEN MENTION, HOW 80-90% OF THE BOOK OF BILL IS LITERALLY, BILL BITCHING ABOUT MISSING FORD BECAUSE, ONE DOES NOT JUST SIMPLY SAY,"I DON'T MISS MY EX" AND PROCEED TO MENTION THEIR EX IN ALMOST EVERY PAGE IN OF WHAT IS, BASICALLY THEIR ARTS AND CRAFTS PROJECT OF A DIARY THAT PEOPLE CAN READ, WITHOUT SOUNDING LIKE A 'NEEDY EX' LIKE, MABEL CALLS BILL
@@thefastrightptg5048 Fr. Like Ford idolized Bill as his muse, but he didn't involve himself as personally as Bill did. Now do I think Bill considers Ford his lover? Possible. Bill clearly was damaged by the separation, but Ford managed to pick himself back up way too quickly for him to have had feelings.
update: hi! they did finally add credit in the descriptions, thank you !! still leaving this comment up though so people can check the description and support those lovely people in the description! hey! as someone who helped uncover and document parts of the book and specifically the secrets of the lofi album, the website, nd etc, PLEASE CREDIT!! people's names especially those from r/gravityfalls deserve to be recognized, i've met so many kind people there and we've uncovered so many things, so *PLEASE* credit!

How have you could have forgotten to mention anything about how homoerotic Ford and Bill’s relationship was when you were talking about his past partners?!
Bill probably felt something. Not Ford. Dude cut off the relationship and then proceeded to do everything to keep bill out of both his mind and physically, with Ford pointing his crossbow at Stan and then checking his eyes implying Ford actually had to take care of beings that Bill possessed to keep Bill out.
@@MYSTERIOUS-r9n That Billford interpretation is not even accurate. At most Bill had a crush on Ford and took advantage of his inferiority complex to fuel a toxic relationship. Ford never liked Bill that way.
@@MYSTERIOUS-r9n yeah when I read it for the first time I got the feeling of typical close friends, and even after reading all these peoples weird interpretations I still feel the same.

XD no kidding. He literally got drunk and had a full weekend bender over Stanford. Not to mention all the strange "subtext that's not really subtext" in weirdmegedon (looking at you chain scene!). He's a clingy ex girlfriend who calls you in the middle of the night over "car trouble" and tries to get you to come over to help
the oracle or “jessie” just used to be a part of the henchmaniacs. i highly doubt that she’d, or he would be with someone like that. she most likely just left the group after seeing his and the others true side
give credit to those who deserve it, you took theories word for word that where created in the reddit the day the book released, I'm not against getting information from the community but at least give propper credit man
I beleive deadpool 2 the part where dp or deadpool is picking out superheros for x force right after his friend the bartender says "isnts that canada" go ahead look at the movie

@@freyrapollo Something not romantic. At least not from Ford. A hint at Bill potentially liking Ford yes, but not the other way around. Bill was a friend/muse/God to Ford. A lot of adoration with little personal attachment.
Why are people acting like this book is titled “the book of billford”? Here’s a fact: NOBODY CARES ABOUT BILLFORD. ITS JUST SOME DUMB SHIP SOMEONE CAME UP WITH THAT PEOPLE ARE TAKING TO THE NEXT LEVEL. GET OVER IT.
The thing that makes Gravity Falls so Memorable is how Alex Hirsch himself was the one who decided to cut it in its prime, usually, whenever a show is cut, it’s either due to publishers or corporations deciding to cut shows in their prime (See Owl House/OKKO/Inside Job) but Gravity Falls is a weird case of the creator saying “Enough is enough” and I greatly respect the amount of restraint, he could have milked this IP to the ground but he knew what story he wanted to tell and when he wanted to end it, plus, by cutting the show way before people got tired of it, you get a fandom that constantly thirsts for more content, I mean, It’s been 12 years but the fandom is still going strong (Even with the confirmation of no season 3)
Please credit the people who actually found some of this evidence!! I have friends on the r/Gravity Falls server and they poured they're hearts into this and to see their stuff get taken without credit kinda sucks :/
To discover something doesn’t make it yours, obviously to word for word it is, but they never said that they found it, almost all theory channels do this and non give credit
"Heh, a girl?" *I paused, looking her up and down.* "We don't typically get a lotta females out around these parts." *I continued, running my hands through my head of hair. I gently bit my lower lip and narrowed my eyes.*
Some credit for the people that actually worked it out would be nice. Yeah there are some ciphers that are obvious to work out but for stuff like the coffee stains and the more complex ones, there's no way team theorist solved those without looking at the server and subreddit..
Bro did an entire theory on the book of bill without mentioning how bill and ford explored each others metaphysical bodies as if the Disney censors were right behind him 😔😔😔😔

"don't let Bill cipher steal your information " is kind of ironic when the information in this , word for word in some cases was stolen. while this video is great it does deserve to credit the community for coming together ✌️
Please credit r/gravityfalls and whatever other sources you used in the second part. Solving the book was a community effort, and designed to be as such, with more codes and cryptograms than could be picked apart by one person alone. Thank you.
Hey, not to be rude, but most of this information wasn't cited by the theory team themselves, the lovely book of bill decoceders over on r/gravityfalls actually figured this out, but yet no credit is expressed in the video, it's incredibly important to credit the people who figure things like this out, instead of just blindly copying their own findings. Not just this video, but many of the theory videos this channel and the others have posted have stuff almost directly copied from orginial sources and slapped into a video with an audience of thousands so the orginial authority doesn't get credit where credit is due. I'm not saying that the nice people over at Game Theory and the other channels are liars and cheats, they just need to credit people, instead of blindly copying what others have already pointed out and regurgitating it to appease the algorithm.

One thing that was not mentioned was the reason the "how to get into heaven" page was blank was because Bill said the writing would be invisible to people with sinful thoughts. So it's not that he doesn't believe in heaven. It's that he thinks we are all freaks.
It’s kinda accurate though…
It for perverted thoughts💀
Makes sense
bro rigged it
Which is hilarious
Me and my friends were going on a trip through Oregon, and one of my friends (Jamcat) picked up the book of bill. The next day we went through Salem, and then thunderstorms started, I got sick, and we had trouble navigating through the city. A few days later, Jamcat found a part in the book where Bill Cipher says to "look out for his work in Salem."
Bill deadass tried to ruin our trip.
Cool
Wonder about the alternate Gruncle Stan
Had something like this happen to me and my friends in school.
My friend brought the book of bill at school, and when we summoned bill in the book, a ,ouple minutes later, the lights. Went. Out.
Everyone celebrated because people thought we were gonna go home, but the teachers kept us in school, and instead of going home early. Everything was just really, really, hot. And the lights turned to life.
Bill gave us hope, and decided to rip it out of our hands.

A triangle is a polygon with three corners and three sides, one of the basic shapes in geometry. The corners, also called vertices, are zero-dimensional points while the sides connecting them, also called edges, are one-dimensional line segments. A triangle has three internal angles, each one bounded by a pair of adjacent edges; the sum of angles of a triangle always equals a straight angle (180 degrees or π radians). The triangle is a plane figure and its interior is a planar region. Sometimes an arbitrary edge is chosen to be the base, in which case the opposite vertex is called the apex; the shortest segment between base and apex is the height. The area of a triangle equals one half the product of height and base length.

This huge Gravity Falls boom that came with the book of Bill had better either be teasing or have inspired a continuation to the show, perhaps a late arriving new season, similarly to what Phineas and Ferb got.
Hopefully the continuation is going to be a spin-off about Stan and Ford’s adventures.
That is kind of the main way the story can continue with out being ruined by Disney for more content.
@@AUTTP-ON-TOP-r4w I find "Violent and Repulsive Content" works a lot. I mean, it covers pretty much everything THEY do.

@TheCoolDude4 bruh.
okay so basically the oracle/"jessie" didnt date bill. she became too powerful and found out a way to defeat bill. we see this in journal 3 when the oracle gives ford the metal plate in his head, she know how to block him out of the mindscape.
YES! Finally someone said it! The fact that the vid doesn't explain the crossed paragraph about The Oracle itches my brain so much. Not only that, she figured out how the portals work and transferred the Hechmaniacs far away from Bill. I hope they better explain it in the next video cuz the Oracle ex theory doesn't have a good foundation
@@illslegalthe theory was made by matpat’s son so i still think it’s nice they left it in
Also I think that it’s implied that ford and the oracle had a bit of a thing, so it would be really funny if Bill was just jealous
Yes but we know she was in the henmainiacks (presumably so she could learn more about bills weakness) and she could’ve gotten in by seducing bill
well, its just a theory....

Really? No mention of Ford? That was so strongly implied...not saying Billford is a thing, but it was a 'Thing', take what you will. It impacted Bill to the point of revenge on an emotional level.
His "revenge" was never a thing, the whole weirdmaggedon event couldn't be called "revenge", they definitely had a thing, but that was just one-sided relationship, in which Bill probably neglected Stanford.
@@Koranimorir good job youve figured out toxic relationships exist!!! bill obviously manipulated and abused ford but they were still in a relationship and bill literally got drunk at a bar after they split (also if u type breakup/divorce into the website it gives u a card for the bar bill went to in the book)

I have a feeling he’s a bit embarrassed to mention that ford and bill are a couple, I ship bill and ford through and through. It’s kinda funny how I’ve had dreams of bill aswell
At the part with bill saying he has no exes is because he still loves this one ex he has and it is... Ford it says in the book they had a relationship then they broke it off leading to bill getting drunk and calling his dead mom. I think the girl that was crossed out was just a friend that turned good on bill and left the group
in what part of the book does it say they have a romantic relationship ?

@@ShawtyGrim It wasn't always credited
Jessie wasn't Bill's ex! She betrayed Bill by telling Ford about the portal real function! Bill's ex it's most likely Ford (since in the books it's very obvious how close they where to one another, even if it wasn't something physicaly but emotionaly abusive in both ends)
There's no point for him to hide that implied "EX" is Ford, because he talks about Ford in other pages, and for Gravity Falls..it seems too obvious, don't you think so? Obviously it's probably not right
@@KoranimorirHow is it too obvious 😅
Wild that there's so much focus on the "Jheselbraum being Bill's ex" theory (plausible, But) when there's So Much pointing to Ford being his ex-Something, all the romantic (albeit definitely manipulative/abusive) language and subtext/references surrounding those two are very clear

@@daintyrosesright
AUUGGHH THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FINALLY SOMEONE HERE IN THESE COMMENTS THAT ISN’T WEARING CISHET-COLORED GLASSES 😭
You should learn to differentiate a farmer/livestock relationship with what you want to be true. Bill treats him as a beloved lamb of a flock(victims), and Ford treats him as a beholder of vast wisdom. The way Bill has always treated Ford goes against literally anything that would imply this as true. A better comparison of this is how you had a favorite toy that you used until it broke. The only way they could be "exes" is in a non-romantic way, like Joker and Batman, which is a surprisingly similar scenario.
i thought i was losing my mind, why did they particularly ignore every detail of billford in favor of something i've NEVER heard of... okay
Totally brushed over the fact that the book exposes the fact that Bill and Ford were DEFINITELY something more than just "Muse and Scientist" 😏😂
shut
My main problem with this theory is the oracle part, while yes billford isn’t cannon (coming from a billford shipper) it has way more dang proof then bill dating the oracle. All they needed to do was read the dang book (which they admitted they literally skimmed through it.) and they would’ve understood it so much better. It’s honestly kinda disappointing seeing as gravity falls is one of mat’s favorite animated shows. With the oracle all they did was just see this random person crossed out, figured out it was the oracle, then assumed that the only logical answer was they dated. There’s no actual concrete proof, only speculation, and yes I know it’s a theory but still theory’s are supposed to have actual evidence, at this point this is a hypothesis. Like I said at least billford has actual proof. My second problem with this is the lack of crediting to r/gravityfalls, I’m aware they’ve added credits now, but they should’ve done it in the first place. Not to mention they skimmed over the silly straw page! They literally only mentioned the upside message. Really disappointed as someone who’s been watching team theorists for a while, you guys used to make amazing theories now it just feels like you just throw stuff together without any actual knowledge. I know y’all are busy but you guys knew book of bill wasn’t gonna be simple, not to mention everything that’s in this theory (except the oracle) isn’t even a theory, it’s just stating what we know. Maybe they’ll fix something’s in part two but for now I’m disappointed.

Gravity Falls, whatever Alex Hirsh's intentions, is not... is not a show like Steven Universe. Let's put it that way.
Abnormal and even toxic relationships do not stand at the foundation of Gravity Falls.
On the contrary, the show is based on promoting family values, even if it did have some... questionable life lessons sometimes (the unicorn episode is the biggest one I can think of).

You are so real for this
Brings up ex’s and doesn’t even mention the implications about Ford and Bill. I mean just the kareoke and O’sadleys pages alone tell their story not to mention his melt down. That wasn’t a “I lost my latest pawn meltdown” that was a “I lost my beloved partner and acted super irrationally now he’ll never want me again”
Yeah... no. I'm pretty sure it was one-sided honestly. Ford saw Bill as his 'Muse' so something clearly more inspirational, than traditionally romantic. Bill for sure liked Ford though. Dude was probably the first person to let him in a mind in centuries, not to mention that Ford actually built the portal.
The final nail in the coffin is the book itself compared to the show: Ford clearly moved on from his obsession with Bill, implying that his attachment was less personal compared to Bill's, who clearly took the end of their partnership very hard.
Maybe it's just a joke. Can friends not participate in karaoke. Also, yeah, of course, Bill Cipher would be upset about the falling out with Ford, considering the fact it could've led to him letting his buddies out of the Nightmare Realm.
@@MYSTERIOUS-r9nconsidering the fact that alex fought so hard for lgbtq representation against disney, i don't think it's a joke, alex isn't that type of person, he fought so hard just for two women to be all lovey dovey in the love god episode and fought so hard just for blubs and darland to have some time together.
@@MYSTERIOUS-r9n in the book of bill bill says the best way to get someone to fall for you is locking them in a stone pyramid and sing to them until they eventually give up. which is exactly what he tried to do with ford in the show.
@@Wendeta-hq2cp "Ford clearly moved on from his obsession with Bill, implying that his attachment was less personal" You shouldn't be obssessed with someone you like, and that wouldn't make Ford's attachment less personal. the books is from Bill's perspective, but Ford clearly show's a lot of personal feelings towards Bill - hence why he feels so betrayed by Bill's actions. But Bill took it harder because he was more obssessed and unhealthy - since he doesn't think like a normal human.

Notice how all the codes in the glitch cypher refer to bill as Billy and talk about his childhood in Euclidia? It seems to be like it’s most likely Bill‘s mother scalene since the Oracle would have no way of knowing what happened in Euclid on such a personal level
I don't know if this is true but it's been pointed out a bunch of times in the gravity Falls discord and Reddit that Euclid is his father and Euclydia is his home dimension with Scalene being his mother,, literally no clue tho, just sharing what I've seen :3
That would make sense although it is included that his mother is confirmed to be dead a trillion years before he even wrote that book. I believe it's the Axolotl purely because the codes are commonly rhyming couplets which is the exact rhythm and pattern he speaks especially when talking to Dipper and Mable in a canon comic to talk about Bill.

Because it’s not canon, and has no point in showing up in a theory video. It’s also weird.
@@Liamguy999 it WAS canon, like, in past tense,,, theyre exes
Lee: …and his ex-girlfriend, THE ORACLE!
Stanford: Am I a joke to you?
Please credit the people in the server who discovered alot of it please!
then it takes ages

there’s a high chance he won’t see these comments but if he does I’m pretty sure he will fix the mistake if he doesn’t he probably never checked the comments to the video

21:44 "ex girlfriend" that's just stanford pines, Jessie is obviously just a red hearing !!
XD no kidding. He literally got drunk and had a full weekend bender over Stanford. Not to mention all the strange "subtext that's not really subtext" in weirdmegedon (looking at you chain scene!). He's a clingy ex girlfriend who calls you in the middle of the night over "car trouble" and tries to get you to come over to help
the oracle or “jessie” just used to be a part of the henchmaniacs. i highly doubt that she’d, or he would be with someone like that. she most likely just left the group after seeing his and the others true side
LITERALLY
yall dumb, that would be BOYFRIEND. not girlfriend
@@haleybrown8197 I beg you to look up the definition of a joke
give credit to those who deserve it, you took theories word for word that where created in the reddit the day the book released, I'm not against getting information from the community but at least give propper credit man
FR!!!
I agree, I know me and a bunch of other people have been working our tails off and seeing it taken without credit is upsetting.
Not agian, they said they would credit reddit users and did it in videos
I beleive deadpool 2 the part where dp or deadpool is picking out superheros for x force right after his friend the bartender says "isnts that canada" go ahead look at the movie
@@TangyBytetruly man, as someone who’s spent way to long on this it hurts
Ngl, why am I not shocked that they didn’t mention Billford? I kinda expected it and was mad before the episode even started?? What kind of deja vu is this 😂
this would be really cool video if you guys could credit were given to the users and communities that did the work to make these discoveries!!
Us along with MANY others have been working their butts off on this and its super upsetting the people that worked on it didn't get any sort of credit or anything.

@@sweetp285 are you and many other film theory keyboard warriors not understanding what the words "added after being harshly talked to in the comments" mean
It's pretty clear and obvious who bills actual ex is, like c'mon bro, did you read the book with your eyes closed?
It's like the book kept smashing us in the head over and over again on who's bills actual ex, and then still getting it wrong, it's on purpose at this point.
@@Fukuzatsunayumewhose his gf
@@angel4174 read the book
I mean people can have more than one ex
Also a part two was mentioned in the video, it might be brought up then
@@sarahtoninmg i agree actually, but i feel like the second video is going to be more about the website.
21:50 was it not obvious to other people that the love bill avoids talking about is ford?
Because bill and ford were not dating
@@Liamguy999 something was going on between them, you just have to know how to read subtext. or just text really, cause what else could "one thing led to another" mean
@@freyrapollo bill is an evil triangle. End of story. He would not date ford.
@@Liamguy999 did you fail literature with the lowest mark? or are you in 4rd grade
@@freyrapollo
Something not romantic. At least not from Ford. A hint at Bill potentially liking Ford yes, but not the other way around. Bill was a friend/muse/God to Ford. A lot of adoration with little personal attachment.
you are SO oblivious to billford that it's actually kinda sad😭
(Is that a ninjago pfp?)
Real like did they even read the book
KAI AND COLE?!??!?!?!??!?!?!??!?!?!?
Why are people acting like this book is titled “the book of billford”? Here’s a fact: NOBODY CARES ABOUT BILLFORD. ITS JUST SOME DUMB SHIP SOMEONE CAME UP WITH THAT PEOPLE ARE TAKING TO THE NEXT LEVEL. GET OVER IT.

@@Quartz_Featherzspam bot, don’t reply, but do report because at this point ignoring does not work
You know that Ford is also one of Bill's exes, right? Feels a bit relevant. (For example, "Divorce" etc.)
The thing that makes Gravity Falls so Memorable is how Alex Hirsch himself was the one who decided to cut it in its prime, usually, whenever a show is cut, it’s either due to publishers or corporations deciding to cut shows in their prime (See Owl House/OKKO/Inside Job) but Gravity Falls is a weird case of the creator saying “Enough is enough” and I greatly respect the amount of restraint, he could have milked this IP to the ground but he knew what story he wanted to tell and when he wanted to end it, plus, by cutting the show way before people got tired of it, you get a fandom that constantly thirsts for more content, I mean, It’s been 12 years but the fandom is still going strong (Even with the confirmation of no season 3)
Please credit the people who actually found some of this evidence!! I have friends on the r/Gravity Falls server and they poured they're hearts into this and to see their stuff get taken without credit kinda sucks :/
To discover something doesn’t make it yours, obviously to word for word it is, but they never said that they found it, almost all theory channels do this and non give credit
@@themrlupo3591the title quite literally says “I solved the book of bill” the title saying HE solved it all on his own which is blatantly incorrect

YOU solved it? Are you sure about that? Because I've been watching the Gravity Falls subreddit discord server decode these pages. For shame.
for SHAAAME!
Some credit for the people that actually worked it out would be nice. Yeah there are some ciphers that are obvious to work out but for stuff like the coffee stains and the more complex ones, there's no way team theorist solved those without looking at the server and subreddit..
check the description
Bro did an entire theory on the book of bill without mentioning how bill and ford explored each others metaphysical bodies as if the Disney censors were right behind him 😔😔😔😔
You people got Owl House (awesome show and I loved Luz and Amity btw). Get over yourselves. Why can't normal stay normal? Why must everything that wasn't rainbow be rainbow? It's almost as infectious as the Book of Bill itself honestly. 😑
@@Wendeta-hq2cp"now I'm not a homophobe or anything, just discard all of my comments where I called it degeneracy, but must you guys read into barely disguised subtext? It's Hannibal all over again"
@@rainestorm6029
Even degeneracy can be made artistically beautiful. Read "Une Charogne" by Charles Baudelaire and you'll see my point.
It's disgusting, yet it also manages to be beautiful.
Also phobia is a big word? Why would I be afraid of people that chose not to reproduce? An argument could be made that all the diseases spread could be frightening, but medicine had made them manageable.
Nothing to fear anymore.
Thanks for your politically charged comment. This is exactly the reason nobody likes rainbows anymore mate.

Btw if you wondered why anything promoted by rainbows loses money, it's this: nobody wants to pay to be insulted with slurs like homophobe or other rubbish like that.
Grow up.
Please credit the people who solved it
22:21 Why didn’t you give credit to Ollie? He came up with that I thought? It would have been cool to show people. EVERYONE THANK OLLIE!
It’s disappointing that this man who matpat trusted and entrusted film theory to, blatantly ripped the script and info from the people who actually solved it with no credit. I know it’s happened before it’s just, disappointing.
Honestly I had been avoiding the Theory channel because I knew something like this would happen but I’m a big GF fan so I gave this video a chance. Sorely upset that my presumption was correct. Is this just Film Theory though? How are the other theory channels doing?
The description sites the Subreddit, at first glance
@@backparker9264all the other channels have been doing fine
Nearly everything about the title thumbnail and video takes credit for solving the book. There is no real intention to share credit or site sources. We as an auidiance should expect better, this video is a hard example of blatant unapologetic plagerism.@TheVerdant01
@@Moleje1337Hi! They finnaly added credits look at the description!
19:06 Deciphering words from COFFEE RINGS is probably the most "Team Theorist" thing you can possibly do

How do you know they didn't also figure it out?
@@JohnDoe-hj9fh because theres literally video clips taken from people that solved it, and put in the video with no credit
@@plutoniumthemenace I don't know what video clips you're referring to but usually in a videomaking process, the script is already written before any editing is done so that doesn't prove they didn't also work it out
@@JohnDoe-hj9fh direct quotes are taken word for word from the subreddit
@@JohnDoe-hj9fh the video clip they are referring to is the montage from the silly straws cipher, which was directly stolen from the discord. Not the idea to make a montage, but that exact video was what was taken.

Credit the people in the Gravity Falls Discord/Reddit.
this would be an incredibly cool video if only credit were given to the users and communities that did the work to make these discoveries. as someone who used to be a massive fan of the channel this is something that has driven me away as a viewer over the years :(
edit: glad to see credit added to the description, hopefully in the future it can be included in the original video itself :)
Description
Please give credit where credit is due! As a member of r/GravityFalls it hurts my heart to see the theories of people i know taken and given zero credit to. We have poured our hearts in this, DAYS spent together in calls LOSING OUR MINDS AND SLEEP trying to figure out what Alex Hirsch wants us to find. And to see a channel many of us look up to, to just- what? take credit for our findings? I'm incredibly disappointed.
womp womp cry
Oh shut up this isnt a womp womp moment this is legit plagiarism, matpat always credited sources (see him crediting the community fot fnaf theories or crow 64, etc) so its hugely disappointing for lee to drop the ball like this @justacuteonigiri
@@natz3284 and while entirely possible for Film Theory to have independantly solved things, it seems they've straight ripped quotes and other things from the subreddit. It's not a who solved first but, indeed seems to be plagarism.
@@TGPDrunknHick exactly !!!!
@@natz3284I agree if you guys put in this much effort and the film Film theorists have had it in the "background" then you guys need some credit for solving stuff
They actually reference the coffee ring is what you use for the cypher, the last sentence of the page says “ you can ditch the red wire and *put down your coffee* ”
yooo, give credit to the people from the reddit and discord theories
Honestly yall should’ve given credits to all the people who found the codes over on r/Gravityfalls before you got to make the video.. also the billford erasure is wild😭 ngl the Oracle being an ex gf really doesn’t make sense either

@@captainsprinkles6557they updated it after the comment
The “ex” is Ford, they drop so many hints and lean in to the relationship between them HOW DID YOU NOT GET THAT

Right. Bill's idea of how to pick up a date? The ever iconic "We'll meet again" scene in the tip, described as the love cage.
Heteronormativity strikes again honestly-
oh no this video doesn't have my ship i support that's obviously canon and not alot of people like! I need to comment right now!!!

@@jacecurtis1090 Yep now it is, wasn't before though
More gravity falls theories
"don't let Bill cipher steal your information " is kind of ironic when the information in this , word for word in some cases was stolen. while this video is great it does deserve to credit the community for coming together ✌️
MatPat takes a step back and the mice already came out to play fr. This would have almost never happened were Mat still here.
22:29 ignoring the axelotto in the drawing is criminal because it shows she got ties
"bill's ex-girlfriend"
*me forgetting that he could be refferring to anybody except ford:*
Gotta be ford
We’re still waiting on part two. Not like I don’t have plenty of theories to keep me waiting, though!
Please credit r/gravityfalls and whatever other sources you used in the second part. Solving the book was a community effort, and designed to be as such, with more codes and cryptograms than could be picked apart by one person alone. Thank you.
Hey, not to be rude, but most of this information wasn't cited by the theory team themselves, the lovely book of bill decoceders over on r/gravityfalls actually figured this out, but yet no credit is expressed in the video, it's incredibly important to credit the people who figure things like this out, instead of just blindly copying their own findings. Not just this video, but many of the theory videos this channel and the others have posted have stuff almost directly copied from orginial sources and slapped into a video with an audience of thousands so the orginial authority doesn't get credit where credit is due.
I'm not saying that the nice people over at Game Theory and the other channels are liars and cheats, they just need to credit people, instead of blindly copying what others have already pointed out and regurgitating it to appease the algorithm.

Can you please credit the discord server members who solved so many of the codes? Thanks

Here’s my question: Was the O’Sadley’s pic for his breakup with the Oracle or his breakup with Ford?
9:21 I don't see many people talk about the Mabel part yet. "Constant nightmares of unable to save a dying pig" could just be a callback to the Time Traveller's Pig episode or worse, Waddles is dying ever since it got to California.
I thought wendys dreams were super dark
Not me waiting for him to atleast mention the Billfold stuff..
Im not the only one... Right.....?
I don't care much about the billford stuff, however what I do find interesting is how Bill manipulated Ford in an insane way...kind of just skimmed over the whole section. That whole part was...insane.
@@dogup_updog not even the typical “romantic ship” way but to completely gloss over the fact that they obviously had a very abusive relationship and Bill STILL refuses to let him go???
@@dx.feelgood5825
I would have liked that to be addressed too honestly. Ford and Bill may not have been romantic, but Bill sure did mess Ford up.
Hey, where's the credit to the decoders at 18:03?
