I didn't know my mother worked for them.
My sisters in law too, my mother in law too... Hell! Everyone I know 😂
She's on the payroll, can confirm. She's happy to do overtime free of charge
I had to pause the video to read the small print 😂😂 Excellent work guys xxx
Still works and dont plan to stop😂
@@foilarmsandhogIs there a retirement age from this position?
"In my day job, as a solicitor i offer an awful lot of solicited advice, but outside of working hours I like to give a lot of unsolicited advice, Pro bono of course"
Pro bono? How very kind of you 😂 so even a completely broke person like me can get some much needed (as I'm being told) unsolicited advice on how to get a job.
I prefer to give anti Bono advice, me. Like, "Don't listen to U2, you'll go blind."
But how do i get unpinched avocados if the idiots keep pinching them to find out if they're fresh, when it isn't needed to do that?
My advice is to avoid people altogether, when you don't meet anyone they cannot offer advice.(it seems to be a social structure thing)
Also, that bit of music is in one of BicycleDutch videos & it's weird to hear it here.
Just as a helpful tip, capitalize the letter, i. 😉
@@laurenconrad1799 I see what you did there LOL
"Our team of unqualified enthusiastic volunteers". Yep they are everywhere.
Another great one team. All the best for your upcoming tour.
So is there a special wing for people like this in the prison for annoying people? You know…for their own safety 🤣 brilliant sketch lads.
Do you want to lock up half the German population over 40?
No. Such people are actually on early-release work permits. You see, the CIA found waterboarding wasn't cutting it anymore-now they just assign ten people to give prisoners unsolicited advice. Gets results within hours.
If I can just give you a little hint on grammar, try putting a period after the word "safety." 😉
@@laurenconrad1799 the comma after Grammar was unness..unnissar.. unknessure unflukinnessursarrry .......ah bolox ,was not needed
No. But there is a special suite in Hell.
Great sketch! Several lines stood out, but I think my favorite was "They don't realize you've taken time out of your day to ruin theirs." The delivery was amazing :D!
Mine, too.
Great!!
If I can give you a tip, don’t put an exclamation mark right after an emoticon. 😉
"There isn't one. We'll find you."
I feel unsafe 👀😂
Coming to a café queue near you Anna
I know of a Worry Protection Company who can help you out...
"Unsolicited advice may not be helpful or factually correct" 🤣 Love the disclaimer!
"People can be so ungrateful. They don't realize you've taken time out of your day to ruin theirs". Love this!😅
„You’ve taken time out of your day to ruin theirs“!😂Of all the brilliant lines in this sketch this is my favorite!
We had another "they don't realise that it's coming.. coming from a place of... superiority"
Mine, too!
So great!!!!
That line is surely going to end up in the all time classic comic quotes.
The moment I heard that phrase, I knew it will be somewhere in the comment 😆
As a piece of advice, put the exclamation mark inside the quotation. 😉
As someone who suffers very visibly from psoriasis, I feel this in my soul! The amount of people (who don't have it) that offer advice of products to try when I didn't even ask for an opinion! Just don't be that person.
Can agree with regard to acne, in my case it was genetic and hormonal and no amount of not eating chocolate or using herbal or over the counter treatment helped me. Yes I was aware of it as we had mirrors in our home.
I remember a time when a stranger walked up to me and wondered whether I was aware my baby had cradle cap.
Just exfoliate.. just moisturise.. just change your immune system to be normal duh
Like who the heck is out there thinking it's OK to basically say to someone 'You clearly have something with your skin and I think it's a problem so...try this'? Don't they realize how rude commenting on someone's appearance is, even indirectly? Unless you tell them you have psoriasis and ask, they shouldn't be commenting on your psoriasis AT ALL even if it IS visible??! Your skin isn't their business unless you ask...
Pardon me, but, a word of advice?
If you put a comma after, "Amount of people," and another comma after, "Have it," you don't need parentheses. If, in fact, you still want parentheses, you still need commas. "Whom offer advice," is more proper than, "That offer advice."
I have absolutely no idea why anybody would give unsolicited advice! My deepest sympathies lie with you.
If I may offer my opinion, this was extremely well done. My unsolicited advice of the day - keep making more of those awesome videos, we need them!
Thank you maria, you need to eat your breakfast, you keep skipping it and it's affecting your day
Hi, *actually* I think her name is Mairi. We all need to be paying a LITTLE more attention now that the geniuses at YT have changed usernames back to incomprehensible handles - like we all feel a keenly-gnawing yearning for Twitter whenever we're not on it like a black hole in our soul - and that includes you three. Don't go thinking you're exempt just because there's more than one of you.
Hell yeah, I wish it was like 5 times longer. There still was plenty of room for more hilarious jokes. Cant wait for vol. 2 thru 12.
Thank you for all the unsolicited advice, lads! There was so much to ignore for me! 🥳
Actually, just a bit of advice for you, it should be: "There was so much for me to ignore." Don't mention it.
@@grixlipanda287 Akshually - just so you know - both are valid
Here's some advice: the sentence would be clearer if you wrote it as "for me to ignore" instead of "to ignore for me." 😉
Guys, you should do this as a pregnant woman! (or three) Probably the most 'unsolicited advice' point in anyone's life.
The best thing about unsolicited advice is that it gets less needed and more annoying the older you get.
In Germany giving unsolicited advice is a national sport and we are damn good at it!
The shot of Hog "helping" you park with that quiet, tight-lipped oh ffs is too real 1:15
Once, in a supermarket, a complete stranger came up to me and was looking at the mineral water I had just put in my trolley. Then he said how bad this water was and that it was "dead". I was so perplexed that I couldn't say anything! That haunts me to this day...
😱 I can’t believe people actually do that! I’d be v freaked out if a stranger started talking to me like that!
@@SherlockedStorytellr It was so unexpected and weird! It did freak me out!
Yeah, what a busy body
I read that a little wrong and now I'm imagining you being haunted by water...
@@kathilisi3019 That would be even worse😂
ANOTHER AMAZING SKETCH LADS! ❤😂Foil randomly popping into the frame going "i THEEEENNNKK she's TiRrEd" is somehow hilarious and adorable in one 😂
That and Hog staring into the camera is my favourite bits. Oh who am I kidding, the whole thing was my favourite bit 🤣
PS - Keeping your house tidy can do wonders for your mental health 😊👍
What people in Ireland don’t realise is that South Asian relatives have premium subscriptions to Unsolicited Advice.
You’ll get everything from job advice to having babies to solve problems.
haha good to know
Our marriage is in trouble. Ok. Have a baby. That’ll bring you closer.
I'm almost 40 and there are still people who feel entitled to tell me what i should do or have done with my life !! This is brilliant 👏
Me too 😭 I'm fifty now!
Father in law? 🤣
@@pato10111 I'm not married 😅 but yeah it's my sister's husband ... It's always someone in-law apparently!! 😂
In Poland we call those people: "Uncle-good-advice" 😁
That advice about boiling potatoes is actually quite helpful
It's a fact I won't forget so fast, really good!
I never boil potatoes myself, so it won't help much, but my wife will surely love to hear it, next time she JUST threw the potatoes into the pot.
Have definitely experienced the car one. Was trying to parallel park my parents big car in the Netherlands (not from there), and suddenly there were like five people around the car giving me directions in a language I didn't understand. As soon as I had parked, they all dissappeared
That is hurrendously stressful
The guy advising you how to parallel park in a tight spot moved his car in front of you afterwards.
Fahntastic Statistic
In 2020, 2021 and 2023 about 20 percent of all FAH YT channel views gained in a week, are from the sketch released in that week. In 2022 this was 25 percent! Why is this higher in 2022? Last year FAH had some sketches that performed very well in the first week, for example 'The Russian Map Maker' and 'Russian Mobilization' both gained more than 50 percent of all the views in the week it premiered.
TH-cam be weirding haha
Hog is brilliant in this! I love the glasses, the denim shirt, the hand gestures.
And Hog, you really should not run beside a running car 😂
Especially not if someone has a pot of potatoes cooking in the car. I mean, what sort of lunatic does that?
@@galamander_1327 the sort that throws the water out the window to deter people running beside them and yelling
This is brilliant. The infomercial type setting, the jump cuts, the sweet bgm all bring back old FAH sketch watching memories.i will certainly rewatch this hundreds of times.
And Hog is brilliant. Love that lad ❤
This sketch feels oldschool in a good way, doesn't it?
This feels really rewatchable in a - I'll keep coming back to this over the years - type way! I suppose unsolicited advice will always be there, but now in my head they'll be this sketch, and I'll be picturing Hog running after the car and just laugh and not be listening. So this sketch is an ... antidote? to unsolicited advice??
It’s timeless as the history of unsolicited advice endless. (the phrasing is admittedly awkward :/
Love the sketch, really relatable 😂 and funny. I really love Hog's bewildered face in the beginning.
"They don't realize that you've taken time out of your day to ruin theirs" is really a great line. 🤣
Arms as the TV Presenter really makes me chuckle. I love recreating that 😂
Such a slime ball
I want more of that guy 🤣
"We mind your business." simple but powerful line.
Well, at least they’re honest about what they do, props to the team at Unsolicited Advices! People have been doing that for ages and calling themselves “coaches”.
Aw man, unsolicited advice is all I've got to give! It's why I'm here!!
Send in your resumé!
@SamFAHntha if I've learnt anything from last week it's that I need a snazzier job title than Unsolicited Advice Arsehole. But all I've got in my head is movie trailer voice song (It's an affliction at this point). Any suggestions?
Love the effort you put in the text in the banner 🥰 Placing the router centrally really helps when you are trying to watch FAH sketches undisturbed in some dark corner of your home 😅😅
So there I am, chilling and watching TH-cam videos, when suddenly I'm interrupted with Unsolicited Advice from a video about Unsolicited Advice.
Dante should've added that level to his plan of Hell. 😂
I am sorry for being so generous and trying to help and make life easier for everyone around me. Nowadays you can't even help people, what a world.
The difficult part is knowing when people WANT to get advice, rather than when they NEED it.
It’s really just about listening maybe ask the person are you coming to me for advice or are you just needing someone to listen to you?
Ha ha. Reminds me of quite a few people. Hold on a munute. It actually reminds me of me. Oh God.!! 😮
Yeah I think we all do it at some point
Everyone complains about unsolicited advice, until it actually comes in handy
It is pretty annoying
Found the nosy nellie
Yes, I can highly relate. There's nothing better than getting advice that you didn't ask for from well meaning family members, or even total strangers. This spoof ad was hilarious! 😂🤣
"Our team of unqualified enthusiastic volunteers..." 😂
I didn't realise people did this especially. I thought it was just me that was so (a) useless (b) annoying or (c) a pushover that nearly everyone I know seems to think I am desperately in need of their advice, suggestions, ideas, and wisdom just to get through my day. I have often asked myself what it is about me that attracts all of this free and unsolicited from people who all seem so well-meaning. Even trying to write this I have had about 60 free bits of advice from TH-cam to get it right. Thank you for this eye-opening lesson. Wish all the people who gave me advice did it as beautifully as you did. Loved it xxx.
I thought it was just me too!
Hog's character popping up 😂 and the parking and the running after the car! 😂😂 Scarily accurate and believable character. Hilarious!
Such a maniac
Hog's entrances are very amusing: rolling in, popping up...
Character? Wait he was playing a character???
@SamFAHntha Ha! I love the idea Hog is just lurking in lower supermarket shelves ready to pop up or spends his free time chasing after cars.... It was the glasses that made me suspect he *might* be playing a character. But I like your take. Unrelated - Hog should be a glasses model.
The car bit is just hilarious. The shift of quality making it look so real. It reminds me of one of he very first videos where a guy jumps out of the car to teach someone to sort their garbage. Well, teach is an eufemism.
Euphemism is the correct spelling
My sister must work for unsolicited advice cause she never minds telling me what a failure I am and always telling me what to do
Those people are the worst, they seem to live by putting others down. I have several of them in my family too.😑
This one came out on my birthday and unsolicited advice is a really specific pet peeve for me, so thanks for that :) naturally I assume it was intentional.
...i feel personally attacked.
I suggest not...feeling that way. Hope that helps 😊👍
Hog outside the car waving his hands around gave me a total stress reaction, even though I'm nowhere near my car 👀
My favorite response to unsolicited advice is "Thank you for your concern" or "noted"
Oh so this is the place where all of my Indian aunties volunteer at, & they go the extra mile by adding a not so subtle insult into mix too 😅
oh god, the sight of Hog doing the "lock hard" totally got my hackles up! 🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant. Lovely to see this format, it's been a while. Do you mind if I just suggest that porridge is healthier, backing into a parking space allows for easier exits and the baby would have been better with a lighter blanket?
Blimey, the agency should sign you up immediately.
Ugh! I hate people who back into spaces. It always takes them forever, leaving me waiting, waiting, waiting for them to finish (especially if they have to straighten up), all so it's a smidge quicker for them when they exit.
@frolickinglions I don't drive, so obviously I'm the best person to give this unsolicited advice to!
"I'm sorry, who are you?" is gold 😂
I see someone has decided he looks Cool in Glasses again 😂
Oh, he never stopped 😂
"People can be so ungrateful... You know, they don't realise you have taken time out of your day to ruin theirs." 😂😆
Loooovvvvve unsolicited advice especially the 5-minute solution to life problems kind from friends, relatives, and acquaintances. The ones where you want to answer "who asked you?" but you just nod and smile to end the conversation.
Anytime someone says "Do you mind if i say something?"
follow Billy Connolly's advice and respond with "Do you mind if i don't listen while you do it?"
Here comes my unsolicited advice. Rock that Just For Laughs Festival, lads! 🌟🌟🌟 My cousin-in-law and her husband live not far away from Montreal and they already bought the tickets for your gig. *I have absolutely totally definitely nothing to do with it.*
EXCELLENT WORK AGENT
Hahahaha BRILLIANT
That made me smile so hard!
What is a cousin in law, never heard that before?
@@foilarmsandhog Always on duty!
This job is unpaid of course but it has a great exposure and is excellent for my portfolio and résumé.
@@Ensign_Roque 😀 My husband has a cousin. So, for me she is a cousin-in-law. Like sister-in-law but a cousin. 😀
Lovely sketch! I hope you don't mind me saying, but maybe next time you should make a longer sketch.
I want to see mooooore of this!
I don't mind at all Imke, just a teeny weeny bit of advice, don't jump on the back of moving bicycles
@@foilarmsandhog sometimes they need a head start!
Love that you took their message to heart 😅
@@foilarmsandhog Fire!
The car one😂😂😂 Hog aced it with the exaggerated hand gestures too! And the fact that it has the opposite impact and just makes me flustered.
Loved this!!😂😂😂
I am guilty of this. I wonder if there is some kind of… _group therapy_ for people who give unsolicited advice?
"They don't realize you've taken time out of your day to ruin theirs" OMG, this cracked me up!!!🤣😂🤣
Having binge watched your videos so much, I'm finding a lot of unsolicited advice in my life is randomly popping into my head from your sketches. But that's unsolicited advice I can live with 😂
I sure love unsolicited advice, they are both a nuisance and sometimes helpful!
The already-open box of corn flakes in the supermarket 🤣. The beginning of the sketch reminded me of the Quickie Cash one! I really love your attention to detail in the small print, with the unsolicited router advice in there! Absolutely brilliant sketch and good luck in the gig this weekend! 👍
The guy waving his hands frantically to help me park is my favorite! 2 of 3 times that I managed to scratch my car when learning to drive were thanks to those helpers😂😂😂
Yeah, absolutely, I think they target women
You upped your graphic's game a notch again, it all looks great! This is the most professional fake ad you've done so far, even with on scene shots! Very impressed FAHn here 👍🔥Some brilliant funny lines in there!
Cheers Christina!
Fantastic sketch lads!
And now I need to go and give my apology to several people…😂
Nah, just share this instead.
@@michellebyrom6551 Good advice!
@@michellebyrom6551 great thinking!
😄
Hog needs to wear glasses in more sketches 😍
TAKE MY ADVICE, I'M NOT USING IT.
If I may add just a little tip, personally I would have made the fine print lowercase, helps with readability you see
Ah unsolicited advice! As a single woman in her mid 30's I get a lot of this!
Maybe I should start giving other people unsolicited advice 🤔
'No you don't want to get married and buy a house! You should stay single and renting forever! That way you don't have to put up with snoring and you never have to buy an oven!'
🤣 haha you should defo go for it, if you don't mind me saying that.
Not me pausing the video to read the fine print cos you guys literally think of everything 😅 great work! ❤
Great work? GREAT WORK? It made my wifi worse! 🤣
I love the small print in the ad text!
"Because when you need us least, we're there" and then Hog directing the car...I started choking on my food! Took a minute but got breathing again. Wouldn't be a bad way to go...laughing at FAH 😂
Haha confused Hog at the start really got me! Nice you took turns playing the straight man in this.
I love his stare into the camera
@@foilarmsandhog yeah, that’s what got me, it’s really great!
Cracks me up still, even after all this time 🤣🤣🤣
PS - Using a teaspoon instead of a tablespoon is easier when eating out of those small yoghurt pottles. You're so welcome 😊👍
If only I could show this to my relatives who are too concerned about me doing a PhD, and not a real job
Here's a bit of advice, have a laaugh at this sketch!
I remember so much 'advice' when my children were small. One supermarket trip I'll not forget when my son was having a proper tantrum ... one woman said I should beat him, another gasped in horror for me speaking firmly to him .... then (same supermarket, same son) couple of years later, son was prone to nose bleeds and had quite a bleed in the middle of an aisle; I was prepared with kitchen towels/tissue ... so many people surrounded me telling me how to pinch his nose, have his head forward, head back, what he should eat & shove up his nose, what he might have wrong with him etc! I'm sure they meant well! 😵😣😕
WHAT a nightmare
Son's name is Oisin ... only kidding! 😉😁
If you don't mind me saying, you should have added the classic "Oh that's interesting, I've NEVER seen ANYONE do it like THAT before... " in the most condescending tone possible, followed by "I can't see how that could possibly work" (even when it clearly does) 😂
Ohh yes, very good
Or a in a very feminine voice: "Oh, why did I not think of that?? You're so clever!!" 😋
That sounds like how The Snob might make his appearance!
You know if you really want to do a tour, you gotta stay at least a week in each location
100% true advice
Back where I come from we sometimes call people like that "Professors Obvious" 😂 I love the sketch! Thank you lads for good laugh ❤
Yeah, professor Obvious strikes again!
@@foilarmsandhog Oh, so it's international 😅 That wasn't obvious for me 😂
@@Barb_J I always thought it was "captain obvious"?
@@MairiAngwen I thought so too
@@MairiAngwen So maybe that's the cultural difference 😆 Everyone have "someone Obvious" 😂 Maybe now it's also captain in my country, but when I first got to know the phrase, I'm pretty sure it was proffesor 😅
As someone who has been told four times today that I should switch my lightweight active wheelchair for an electric one by random strangers. I needed this..
I actually enjoy getting advice from people. Especially if i dint ask for it, those are the most honest ones, and just what i needed the most without knowing it myself.
Very relatable where I'm living. You can really get upset at them, but most people just want to help, not that big deal.😊
Oh damn, that was just very very accurate. Almost documentary-like. Also, why is Hog's character so much more irritating with glasses. Why is that a thing. Finally, the last joke about the open casket was just the perfect touch of disturbing at the end. The craftmanship, though! Sketchmanship? Is that a word? I dunno, I'm making it up anyways.
haha, that sketchmanship - great word thanks
The dude trying to tell how to park just got me 😂
Depends. If the advice is "watch out for that dog poo!" I'm perfectly happy to receive that advice.
Pretty presumptuous of them to think you wanted to avoid stepping in it.
What....am i even saying 😂
Nice to see Ad Man turn up again, loved his work in How Not To Worry 😁
Was watching that recently, one of my dark horse favourites
@@foilarmsandhog Hog in the boot of the car was class!
@@foilarmsandhog and that's when Hog reportedly answered the phone for a day when people dialled the number on screen! Legend!
@@Heleendje Oh it was Hog! I've been asking about that sketch/that number for so long, trying to get any kind of information out of them for it and alas, nothing. I see Hog is the one I should be asking... Got it 😂
@@SamFAHntha it was mentioned in the comments wasn't it?
I mean say what you want, but that potato in the microwave advice is an absolute game-changer
There must be a special branch of people who “advise” those of us with chronic health conditions. They really know their stuff. Or so they tell us.
What a great start into the day! Thanks for making us laugh every week. This is so real … almost painful to watch! 😂
That's the spot!
My advice is that you shouldn't do things that bring you pain, unless it involves FAH. 😉
@@laurenconrad1799 Totally agree.
As an unmarried woman in her 30s, I am probably one of the biggest clients of this agency
Try being unmarried in your forties and watch the advice subtly go darker ... 😉
@@beagless the horror!
@@EmilyE2601 Hold on, did I just give you unsolicited advice?? 🤣 I am sorry 😊
@@beagless 🤣🤣🤣 you are hilarious
@@beagless Beeh, nice to meet you! 😅
Great sketch! Love it! ❤ How many times I've got unsolicited advices because people around me think that they are helping me even though they don't.
Yeah, I know it sometimes comes from a good place, but it's just so annoying
I would like to file a complaint: this sunday I received unsolicited advice that was actually interesting and helpful and the person that gave it did it in a very polite manner and wasn't overbearing at all. I think you should review your recruitment process to avoid this kind of thing happening again
Unsolicited advice + Passive aggression= Gold
Ah yes, my mom is your top volunteer with over 60 years of service, accessible 24/7 in person, on mobile, or online.
If I may humbly suggest..
continue brigthtening up our days! Brilliant! It is definitely to be included in Top 3 of the year 😅 clever lines, those facial expressions and intonations, small print.. every single detail polished. You made a lovely day splendid! Thanks!
If I were you, I would have plugged the tour dates in the middle of the video rather than the end. That way, you ensure all of your viewers see it rather than clicking off when the sketch ends.
Quality sketch as usual lads
Aaand here it is! 🤣
Brilliant guys! This gives me the de' ja' vu for your other sketches like quickie cash, after life insurance and Emigration police, especially played brilliantly by Arms! 😆👏😄
Each of you have special skills which suit certain sketches more than others!❤
😂 i love the volunteer team. At times the results are good, others not so much
Straight into the top 10! I thought nothing could cheer me up today, but I should have known better!
Sorry you're feeling down 😟
Hey, have you tried just being happy? That might work 😊👍
@@SamFAHntha 🤣🤣🤣well someone bought me a ticket to a comedy show for tomorrow night to cheer me up. Don't know anything about it, but might as well go...🙄
@@miriam2526 ah yeah if you're around you may as well 🙄😂❤️
