@@oceanti6791 No actually you only need to carry one anvil at a time, and you leave it at your workplace so you don't need to carry it at all. Perfectly reasonable.
@j1j1j1j1j1 I think you are the one that doesnt get it. That wasnt really the joke with the cargo pants. This was only a small detail the original creator probably didnt think of, and is just a funny side thing. The main joke was only the taking mutliple objects out of a single pocket, and everyone got that one yes.
I just realized you were the only reason I started watching David’s vlogs in the first place. What a weird time, you are such a goofball I hope you’re all good Alex
This was my first video of you. I'm currently working on making myself better and found the title of the video intriguing as I noticed how much I was on the phone, or just tech in general before. I just wanted tp say that, I was NOT disappointed watching this until the end
Hey Alex your vlogsmas series made my holiday special last time , I’m not asking for that type of commitment but would u do a week till Christmas vlog series?
Just caught up on the past 4 videos. I think bro is shadow banned I watch every video but sometimes it goes months without getting recommended to me. Alex's content is really funny and amazing I love Alex Ernst.
I feel like I’m eavesdropping on a conversation with the random man who’s at the family event that nobody I know seems to know. If that makes any sense.
My phone bill is $15 with a "smart" phone. Might want to shop around since you can't even use the home depot mobile app on your phone and they seem to be charging you like you can.
Okay I've been considering switching for a few years now, my husband said no, I say yes. But as soon as you mentioned the flashlight, it solidified my choice. I will not be getting a flip phone. I'm too scared of the dark and can't risk losing a flashlight.
I switched to a flip phone few months back but I wanted to still have some of the function of a smart phone. Nokia 2780, $90 bucks and has maps, calculator, weather and even TH-cam if you want it.
ipod touch kinda old now some running older ios so may some social app not support older ios version and i might recommend you buy old iphone for social app only
You should get like a gshock or something still know the time you can set a timer and even have a calendar wouldn’t have to be carrying all those but I dig it regardless 🙏
i've always thought about switching to a flip phone to live "minimally" aka avoid social media, and all the reasons that stopped me from doing so was everything you pulled out your pocket lol. mostly gps and listening to music on my speakers... and the camera... ah fuck
alex… call me crazy but is that compass by chance a small golden plastic compass that may or may not have been included in the free willy special edition VHS?!?!
I came here thinking this was a genuine take on why I should have a flip phone. The Walmart bit wasn't enough for me to realize this was satire. I really only knew this satire when you pulled out your smartphone...
This video inspired me to become a minimalist. Rather than carry a 100 pound anvil I carry 2 50 pound ones.
Isn't that the opposite of minimalism?
@@oceanti6791 😬
@@oceanti6791no because now they will be perfectly balanced on 2 sides instead of just one centered side
Amazing writing this tip down now

cargo pants and still pulls everything from the same pocket. thats comedy
Thanks for explaining the joke to me it’s a lot funnier now

@@JuhoSprite it gets funnier with each explanation! I love when visual comedy is explained to me.
I realised this was satire way too late. Now i'm questioning my life.
Dude me too 😭
Favorite part time TH-camr
thought this was gonna be some wholesome, inspiring, anti-social media clip when i clicked, but no... lmao
Leaving my wife and kids and changing my identity because of this great video! Thank you!
Sounds like a solid plan. Kids are not minimalist-friendly creatures.
I just realized you were the only reason I started watching David’s vlogs in the first place. What a weird time, you are such a goofball I hope you’re all good Alex
truly incredible. I can't think of single person who has forgone more in their in life for the sake of simplicity.
A true minimalist. When I grow younger, I want to be just like you.
thank you! this inspired me to quit my job and disappear into the Appalachian mountains to live offgrid!
very informative, on top of switching phones i also started showering in the rain and swapped all of the lightbulbs in my house for candles
This was my first video of you. I'm currently working on making myself better and found the title of the video intriguing as I noticed how much I was on the phone, or just tech in general before.

I did this too! It’s so great and liberating. I have an iPad for necessities but barely use it
I’ll get you a belt clip phone case for Christmas. It increases productivity by limiting wasted hand to pocket movement. You’ll thank me later
Funny, and a great singer. Alex has great qualities (and a calendar)
missed the sketch comedy so bad, im so glad you finally came up in my recommended.
Was thinking of buying a flip phone... you just earned a subscriber.
This was poetry about nothing , and everything in under 3 minutes. What a beauty.
Okay okayy you didn't have to go this far Alex, I get the point, I get it. Great stuff as always.
really miss your content Alex, wishing you and Emily endless blessings ❤
Hello sir I forgot about you. You were always my favorite part of old David vlogs. Nice to see your face again.
best youtuber on the internet. hands down. please don't ever stop
2:18 he had us at the first half, ain't even gon lie
thanks... that really helped put my inner voices about buying a flip phone to rest.
this is art
i want to be like you fr, you're the influencing i need genuinely
alex and david uploaded this feels like a fever dream
I never thought you would bring out that cursed mask out again 😭
this is a direct call out to me. I use both flip phone and smart phone. the reality check I needed.
A man who's ahead of his time
Interesting timing. Been thinking about going to a flip phone just because I miss them. Then I see this. 😂
You were one of my all time favorite TH-camrs growing up, I’m tryna get like u ma boi
im so glad you still have that mask
I'm a minimalist..."has a teddy bear pillow behind him" 🤔
did you make your own christmas music?
Hey man, just letting you know that you’re a very big influence on why I started my vlogging channel. You’re awesome bro.
he so iconic
Why are you my new favorite youtuber.
Another great video Alex
You convinced me man
Best smartphone ad ever
So inspirational! My galaxy Z Flip 6 is on the way and will arrive in 2 days!!!🎉
YEAH GO NARWHALS XD XD
this video needs more recognition.
Big fan
Earned my subscription
Alex reminding us once again that he could be an S tier youtuber
What a dude. The end just scrambled my brain.
the best youtuber no question
I love Alex.
"I also have a smartphone"
**clicks off**
That was funny😊😅 just found u from the mr beast video contest u were in years ago😅
legend. you were my favorite from the vlaw schqwahd days
If people had the same inventory capacities as video game characters
the amount of camera angles he had for the walmart donation bit is truly incredible
This is why we subscribed
This video is not what i expected, truly unique 😂
This man is a genius.
1:46 when I suggest useful technology to my parents.
This is very smart
can't believe ribbed pants made a comeback though
Holly shit , that is one realistic looking Gollum mask...
Best TH-camr
For a minute i thought u sat and squoosed that dam flashlight lol
Do folding phones count?
this was literally me when i had droid 4 with full keyboard until a few years ago and had to use a asus phone just for apps on wifi xD
I’m picturing him placing the camera down and behind the scenes of this 😂
As someone who also has a flip phone the caterpillar like major excavator company makes the best one to ever exist I recommend

If you could get a flip phone had GPS, I'd literally only have a flip phone.

as a drug distributor, this is helpful

Use the flip phone to prank call people on back page again. If you remember the days you’re an OG
so you secretly became a time traveller im guessing
I’ve had a digital home phone for a couple years bro. And I use my iPhone on wifi at home
Not everybody has crippling cell phone addiction though. Addiction is addiction. The first step is admiting you have a problem
I don’t even have a phone, changed my life

ive actually been debating this with myself for a few days and should totally switch
I might just buy an ipod touch for occasional social media use and use a flip phone for daily use. I miss feeling connected to the world
ipod touch kinda old now some running older ios so may some social app not support older ios version
and i might recommend you buy old iphone for social app only
This makes me want my Nokia back.
Crazy...i just made the switch yesterday to a flip phone
Merry Christmas Alex
Awee we got another videoooo! Woot woot lol
Bro how the eff did you have the guts to film those Walmart shots lol
You should get like a gshock or something still know the time you can set a timer and even have a calendar wouldn’t have to be carrying all those but I dig it regardless 🙏
youre connected to that ceo assassination aren't you.

There are few youtubers where I stop whatever im doing to watch a recent upload...Alex is one of them
this is amazing lmao
Even the video's length is minimalist. 😲
alex… call me crazy but is that compass by chance a small golden plastic compass that may or may not have been included in the free willy special edition VHS?!?!
Not crazy. Correct.
Minimal duration video featuring minimal tips from a minimal guy.
The cadence of the initial intro monologue was eerily similar to trump
lol he fit all that in his pocket
I came here thinking this was a genuine take on why I should have a flip phone. The Walmart bit wasn't enough for me to realize this was satire. I really only knew this satire when you pulled out your smartphone...
I get the feeling this guy is running from something
the only reason I use a smartphone is messaging apps, otherwise I would've kept my nokia
