I love this meme very much. Gordon seems relatable here visually. Actually G man too a bit. I try and never leave home without my headphones. - Some interpretations that came to mind: Theory 1: When two highly antisocial symbolistic characters are forced to interact, end up having a strange staring contest that ends up feeling oddly intimate, and then immediately distance themselves when things get too uncomfortable, both feeling overly exposed. Theory 2: G man was stimming to calm himself down since his only pair of headphones had just broke, and it's a windy/noisy day, but he can't leave do to work constrictions. He got excited seeing Gordon, a former client of his, so he tried to mask his atypical behavior as just a really neat song was playing, then realizing the headphones are smoking, isn't sure what to do, and so keeps stimming to calm down his nerves which are now more stressed than ever. Theory 3: G man was intentionally pranking Gordon, just to be creepy and gain a fleeting sense of power over the former scientist at the expense of his own dignity. Theory 4: G man can play music in his mind whenever he wants, the headphones are just for humans to not draw attention to him. Theory 5: G man can hear music, but it isn't a choice, and it's begun to cause him difficulties with his work relationships, so he wears fake headphones too accommodate, but he's smiling to mask the internal pain and fear he feels from the new symptoms. Theory 6: Gordon Freeman recognizes G man and wants to interact with him, but doesn't have a means to communicate, so trys to bond over a humorous moment, but then noticing the headphones are broken feels uncomfortable, gets worried he shouldn't be there, and goes away. - I love overanalyzing art, specifically because it helps to inspire my imagination. I love half life characters! 👍👏👏
Pure one, especially out of context if you do not know the original. You wonder why gordon gets so disgusted seeing a short circuit at gman headphonea lol. I always laughed my ass off that until i ve seen the original and made sense with the plug out thing
Goddamn. I wanted to write, that this is something straight out of Limmy's. And then I looked at tags. And then at description. I love that Scotsman so much.
I like how the glasses have the same property as his skin, direct light actually makes it red and partially seethrough, just like how an ear or a finger would under strong and direct light.
Imagine bobbing your head along with someone, to music you cannot hear, only to realize that they cannot hear the music either, and *you're* the one that gets offended/embarrassed. Gordon, you clown. We all saw you do it.
this honestly feels like something you could encounter in a half life game, especially at the part where gordon realizes that the headphones arent actually playing anything
Vibe check, Mr. Freeman, vibe check. Not that I wish to imply that you have had a bad vibe. No one is more deserving of a mood, and all the effort in the world would have gone to waste until… well, let’s just say your hour has come again. The right vibe in the wrong place can make all the difference.
This can describe my 2020 It was sad, full of school stress, until I started having fun in gaming spending my time, then it started deteriorating so fast in just this Christmas. I bought the MCC (Master Chief Collection), and I realized I was genuinely not having fun and feeling slightly depressed not being able to refund it, and now my friend's grandma died :(

How did you get hereee
lmaoo
@@carlog-kujo3894 the SFM community is very close knit
Love to see you’re support smaller creators
In this song the best part when freeman sing
This is the most awkward encounter I've never experienced.
i can't believe those face animations, excellent.
Don't worry, he is using bluetooth.
And that just a stuck aux cord that he had to cut off so he wouldnt need to drag its wirw around
The silence makes it even better.
watch the original. thats the point lol
This feels like this is based of a real experience.

look up Limmy's sketch "Headphones".
awkward and kinda unsettling.
nice expression pfp

ONCE IN A LIFETIME
@@staticsphere_ WATER FLOWING UNDERGROUND
@@content6907 water holding me down*
it's insane how you understand exactly what the character is feeling with these animations....Wow.
Seeing him smile at Gordon after they exchange glances was the most precious thing I’ve ever seen
Gordan testing out his Telepathic Communication with Gman:
As a socially awkward person id just end myself right there
fucking same
0:32 is perfection
Mmm. Delicious. Limmy's skits in S2FM is a must watch.

God, the subtlety of the faces is unbelievable
Thanks, Gman's crazed scowl activated my fight or flight response.
Gman has not yet moved away from "Music Sounds Better With You".

Or a pair of plastic, dark brown glasses
Plastic...
the fact that you nailed the awkwardness with the facial animations is awesome
He was listening to wrong way down a one way street
It's a damn shame the only thing he's really known for is steel being heavier than feathers
What a roller-coaster of emotions and thoughts.
This could be a great 1 min short film.
Gman listens, music sounds better with you
That was the longest minute of my life
if you use stereo audio background sounds and flip the left/right channels during reverse camera shots it might be cool
btw i love this
I already thought Gordon awkwardly joining in was hilarious, but the reveal really got me XD
This looks like a possible scene in which Will Smith would fit perfectly
*I LOVE that song, especially when it goes, “ “.*
nah my favorite part was " " it hit so deep and was relatable
I've never seen the original Limmy one but I knew it a Limmy sketch from the start lmao
gman jamming on his 360 headset
"Bob your head, Doctor Freeman. Bob your head and *inhale* prepare for unforeseen consequences..."
another classic video from our good pal Neddy!
rip benny harvey
miss ye big man
delectable, truly superb
He just sitting there... MENACINGLY!!!!!
Great video Neddy!
Shhh guys hes listening to e-dubble
Vehemently bobbing his head
what a great video like always
I don't know why but I started bobbing my head too
favorite s2fm of all time, danke
I'm starting to get the impression there are thousands of these videos
That soft smile
Finally found this again. Gold.
Gordon's coming to steal your fries, GMan!
I love the lighting :)
Holy crap it's so unsettling it's funny. I can't get through the video.
yo that headphone got a camera and even a wireless that is owner is wearing
I don't know how you even come up with this
You can just feel exactly what Gord must be feeling. It makes it so awkward, but adorable at the same time.
I was expecting Gordon Freeman to roar and punch him.
I don't say "Tren", I say train.
This comes of as incredibly threatening
This is immensely funny. Never stop Neal
not an original.
Imagine bobbing your head along with someone, to music you cannot hear, only to realize that they cannot hear the music either, and *you're* the one that gets offended/embarrassed.
Gordon, you clown. We all saw you do it.
What a masterpiece!

This is it. This is the only animation to matter.
Brilliant!!

That would be really scary irl.
Dude its crazy how much gordon looks like avgn the resemblance is uncanny
Comedy gold man. It just wins you over.
Feels like a limmys show skit
Sfm2 looks absolutely real
If ingmar bergan makes a movie with sfm this will be the result
God that looks like such an uncomfortable situation.
he's listening to klaxon beat in his head
it's called Bluetooth, gordon
This can describe my 2020
It was sad, full of school stress, until I started having fun in gaming spending my time, then it started deteriorating so fast in just this Christmas. I bought the MCC (Master Chief Collection), and I realized I was genuinely not having fun and feeling slightly depressed not being able to refund it, and now my friend's grandma died :(
I'm sorry for reading that, friend.
Woah, damn.
I honestly have nothing to say to that...
this animation is excelllent 👌👌
I'd be trying to pick up the tune from the audio leakage (I have yet to find one pair of headphones without it), and just groove along.
Anyone else started to bob your heads with them?
I was bobbing my head with theM😂😂
danm they vibin
Every single gordan freeman half life episode be like
I was consitpated before watching this
feels about right, considering their dynamic
Holy hell those subtle facial expressions…
....and the Oscar goes to....
Thanks for reminding me about my social anxiety
What Gordon. Its Bluetooth!
eyyy a Limmy reference
what
once in the lifetime
Wow only just realised this is one of limmys skits 😂
We all know what's he listening to
its weird without music, pretty nice animation though
Yeah, and subtitles would be nice as well
It's better without music
NarrowGauge07 no, it's perfect how it is actually. The silence adds to the awkwardness and you feel more like you're in Gordon's position.
POV you stumbled across the local crackhead
I have done this more than once
why is this so funny
Yeah
what happened between half life 1 and 2 is what I imagine lol
i wonder what he is listening to.
GIGGITY!
This is the most awkward thing I ever saw in my life
LMAO
