I ate up this nostalgia like a cornflake tart in the corner of a grey plastic tray
I'm loving this but I've to say that giving nicknames is universal
I have* to say. Or: I've got* to say. You need the main verb in the sentence.
Not like what they describe. Almost no one had a nickname in my high school, and the ones who did only had the nicknames used by a few people for a few years.
@@lisavandenhoven5672 I'm from the Basque Country in Spain and almost everyone was given a nickname whether they wanted or not and believe me, in several of the cases it stuck for life
Giving nicknames is definitely not universal.
It is very much a very niche behavior.
And even in that niche, only a very small part is derogatory.
Niche behaviour? No, I don't think so. I'm from Switzerland and in three out of three schools I went to, I had nicknames, all different but all lasted to the day I left that school. Most of the other kids had nicknames, too. They were hardly ever mean, though.
I worked in a school and I remember working with a lad of 11 or 12 from a massive really rough family. He was a clever lad and I once said to him "you could be the first (insert family name) to go to university".
He looked genuinely hurt and gave me a mouthful of abuse about how he's "not a fucking dork".
He really saw it as an insult.
Also school uniform actually helps the poorer kids.
Kids can be evil little shits, without a standard uniform kids can be teased for having bad clothes. Some kids dread mufti day.
I think the US has inherited the reverse snobbery/anti-intellectualism thing, especially in rural areas. I can remember news anchors reporting on scientific discoveries making really forced jokes about how the story they just covered was way beyond them to understand because they're "normal" folks, as if the station owners and advertisers were afraid that it would turn away viewers otherwise.
Bad clothes? Kids can and will be teased for having bad hair, bad breath, a bad smell from their shoes, bad parents, only one parent, gay parents, a bad home, a funny middle name, a bad family, a bad spot on their face, for being adopted, for wetting the bed, for being stupid, for being smart, for being autistic and weird, for being short or tall, fat or thin, for liking the wrong music, for being the wrong color, of the wrong faith, or from the wrong country, for being in band, for being trans, for liking the wrong food, for not liking the right drug, for being poor, even for being beaten and abused at home, and yeah, they can be teased for bad clothes. The clothes themselves are hardly the problem. Isn't it obvious that teasing and bullying are more pressing?
The answer is to stop bullying, and stop the teasing. That's not a necessary pert of a normal childhood. Addressing those behaviors really helps. Kids will still get teased sometimes, but they can handle it. Instead of covering up the differences, we should be addressing the reason some kids feel so intolerant, entitled, and cruel when they see those differences in other kids. Their behavior is the problem, NOT the poor kid with old clothes. Bad clothes are not the problem.
@@dcs002 you make it sound like I'm blaming poorer kid for having "bad clothes".
And I never claimed it was the only cause of bullying. I'm simply stating that uniforms help limit a certain type of bullying.
In an idea world we should stop all forms of bullying by teaching kids not to be cruel but the world isn't idea and kids can be nasty. School uniforms are ONE practical, realistic way to try and minimise ONE of the many causes of bullying.
@@Bren688 The behavior we need to change is that of the bully, not everybody else. The bully's behavior is the problem. Making a kid wear a uniform so they don't get bullied isn't exactly blaming the victim, but it's damn close. At minimum it's ignoring the actual problem and making others responsible for it. At maximum, it will only address one target of many, not the real problem of bullying itself.
I work at a public middle school in Minnesota (which means no fees, run by the local school district, ages 11-14). Bullying is not tolerated by the students in our school. They have grown up in a culture that does not tolerate bullying, and they won't have it. This is reality, not ideal world stuff. The more liberal Catholic schools I've attended (only one year in 1973-74) or worked in are like that too. Bullying is only inevitable if we expect it to be so.
Wearing a uniform sucks. I went ho school with my everday clothes, snd certainly did not dress smart. Nobody would ever say anything about another pupil's clothes. Bullying occured to stupid kids, not the smart ones. By the way, one of the msin bullies is now a local politician...
Vic & Bobs friendship reminds me of Steve Martin & Martin Short’s friendship and it’s beautiful
It's always interesting to see the Stereotypes any given nation has about themselves - and the inevitable outrage about it by people who never heard of self irony in their lifes :)
I think it's interesting to see that one nationality might actually think they're the only ones who share these common human characteristics. Do the producers of this realize that there's human life beyond their borders?
@@dcs002This was produced by a British company, aired on a British television network, for the British people. Just because someone posted it to TH-cam, doesn’t mean the originators intended it for the self-absorbed masses. I suggest you drop the BBC a note; I’m sure they will agree to run all future programming past you for approval.
Had a friend I’d known from the age of 5 and I didn’t find out his real name till final year at high school when a teacher asked what his name was . Everybody called him “Tattie” Shaw.
( Tattie is Scottish slang for potato . And shaw is the word for the part that grows above ground).
His name was Gordon btw
Synopsis: The Inbetweeners in interview format.
Funny stories. It's all schools, every country. It's childhood.
My best mate was nicknamed Wingnut, because of his ears.
It truly destroyed his soul.
Yep, Canada and Britain, basically the same LOL
This is great. It has taskmaster people and I'm so happy seeing them. Are the things in here a sarcastic joke or are they true? 😂 Brtish shows do a good job at making odd things seem weird like cunk etc. Can't stop watching these episodes. 😂
43:24😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tennant. The first time I got properly drunk. 😅😅😅
now that was funny and too true.
19:04 I would have died laughing XD
While entertaining, these points are universal.
Envy of the world ….😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂. That’s a very British problem ! 🤣😂🤣😂 ..envy of the world.
Trip to the battle of bannockburn, it’s a field, it’s not cool or dangerous or super amazingly interesting it’s a field
At 15:30, they claim that Dutch parents talk about puberty with their kids, but I'd like to correct that, most things in this video are exactly the same across the North Sea 😂
hilarious
Turns out the British are just like all of us in schools the world over...
is it the same narator as in good omens?
"British tradition of nicknames" "British need to look the same as all the other kids on the first day of school" Not reaching at all are we? Is that sarcasm? 'Cause that's the same everywhere.
They seem to think they're the only ones who go through adolescence too.
Maybe I'm lucky, but I didn't empathize with a word of this show. I mean, nicknames, mostly complimentary, largely self-chosen flexes, but not day-one or vicious. Look the same as other kids? Maybe in general; not the first day, which is half the joke. I never one thought like that though, nor did probably anyone I knew. But I'm a guy, so maybe that's it.
isn't it ridiculous to expect parents to be able to make a specific costume? or afford one? like the squirrel story, sure, that sucked for James, but I would have no idea where to start making a better one.... or where to get the motivation to do it.... on top of having to remember
Universal problems
12:20 "least confident" ... relentless intolerance and undermining will do that to anybody - just as intended. it's the cornerstone of 'codependancy' and narcissistic over-compensation - either the unconscious subjugation to external influence or entitled assumption of it.
manipulation 101.
❤❤❤❤ we are all from the human race, the only race there is. Dividing humans is man-made, social construct, but we are all from the same race.❤❤❤❤❤
Change a few of the words and it is pretty much exactly the same as US education system when I was a kid.
What a misleading title to the video.
Cordens' head definitely got a bit big once he found some fame, sad really!
too much corden, can't finish it
I caught a glimpse of him at the start, and thought this might not be for me , then I read your comment , and had it confirmed, and moved on to something else.
smart move @@barrycuda3769 - you'll never know how smart :-)
Too much Danny Dyer. The man is not funny, just crude.
I just skipped through his bits
Love it, but not even close to being only Brits.
Utter facile BS.
Banal.
You brits can't imagine how cringey it is to watch this as an American. I was Principal of a school, and almost every single thing mentioned in this show would be illegal in the US. Schools would be shut down and teachers would lose their licenses for even allowing any of these tortuous rituals of arbitrary normalization. Seriously, somebody do a man-on-the-street segment on "is this British school or Hamas?"
Well, at least there aren't children getting murdered by school shooters in England. So, there's that.
I can't stand crisps
Too much Danny Dyer. The man is not funny, just crude.
Agenda noted.
I'm not sure if this was suppose to be a parody of those god awful talking-heads style list shows that were ubiquitous in the 00s, or that this is actually one of those god awful talking-heads style list shows that were ubiquitous in the 00s. I lost the will to care as soon as Danny Dyer appeared on screen.
Sorry Katherine, that's not a realistic take on the Cdn Ed system. Maybe in your little town...
What are you on about? I've never met anyone who wore a uniform to school, and I've lived in some large cities.
@@kddidit08 As have I, and school uniforms are only for fancy, rich private school kids. I was talking about her ignorant take on our education system as a whole.
This was not funny. It made me feel sad. And that it is presented as something you want us to laugh at makes the whole post a depressing statement about the raising of children and perhaps an indirect statement on the kind of adults are shaped by this kind of hazing indoctrination
Your history and culture are the Envy of.....? Sorrry, that's no longer true.
Hey Brits, do you really think these problems are special to your country? Do you think you have a monopoly on adolescent insecurity? These are human issues, not British issues.
I'm only 1 min 20 secs in, and already I'm out. "How citizens of these islands .. ." ... A), there are no citizens there, only subjects of the crown and B) that Irish woman doesn't have a UK passport. Fail ! PS And it looks like Corden will be in it, so I'm out
that Irish woman that's Aisling Bea a comedian who's actually pretty funny
I just can't figure out why you think anyone cared.
They also featured an American and a Canadian. The horror! 😱
@@bcaye But YOU did enough to comment. Bless
Again.. Francesca.. she is called… I don’t care how good your fashion sense was… or there lack of…it’s so ironic that this tv show doesn’t mention the bullying of these kinds of people!!!!!
They were bullied to the extreme!!!!
Vic and Bob… to be Frank as individuals they are about as funny as a dog turd…. But together they bounce off each other… so sad.. they are like Siamese twins!!!
Never watched WILTY?
Unlike most (if not all) of these commenters, I did actually enjoy this video. *However* the fact that you would put *David Tennant in the thumbnail* and yet, at 30 minutes in, he has shown up *once* and said *one line* - now that's just straight up fraud, my dudes. Cut the Corden and give the Tennant we were promised! 🥲
