It has officially been one year since the last time I did a video on the JackSucksAtGeography subreddit
0:06
This is the video that I'm referring to, there I am, so young, so full of life
0:10
Now the JackSucksAtGeography subreddit was originally made for people to discuss my videos from my geography channel
0:17
but it very quickly became far less about me and instead turned into people that didn't even know me
0:22
just discussing stuff related to geography. Now the subreddit's getting close to 100,000 members
0:27
I think it's gained about 40,000 members since this time last year, despite me giving it no promotion
0:33
So today we're continuing tradition. We're going to be looking at the top post of the year
0:37
And we're going to see how long it takes for me to actually find a post that is about me
0:41
rather than just general geography stuff. Top post of the year with 6.9 thousand upvotes
0:47
How many upvotes does the top post of the year on r slash jacksoxalife have? Let's find out
0:51
It's got like 2,000 less. 4.7 thousand. I do a video on this subreddit every single week over on JackSucks and stuff
0:57
This subreddit is so much bigger than I am at this point. But anyway, Americans, I am traveling to Europe
1:02
And then the Europe in question is actually just the United Kingdom, France, and Italy
1:07
Yeah, that is the stereotype. I feel like you can't say you've traveled Europe if you haven't gone to at least 10 of the European countries, right
1:14
Because there's nearly 50 of them. Three does not count. Now is the part where you get downvoted by Americans being mad for not knowing any other European countries
1:21
truly an american moment right here whoa jack sucks at geography subreddit let's not just
1:26
generalize the entire usa population there are many americans out there mainly jack sucks
1:31
geography viewers i imagine who know lots about europe they know many countries other than just
1:36
these three but there are also probably quite a few that would really class this as europe even
1:40
though it's only three countries countries that mentioned france in their national anthem all
1:44
right we've got france makes sense fair enough and then the only other country is algeria i presume
1:49
because Algeria was colonized by France, right? Oh, apparently they forgot Honduras
1:55
Yeah, it's translated, but this is the French Hondurian verse. Apparently the Polish national anthem
1:59
mentions France indirectly because it mentions Napoleon, but it doesn't actually specifically say France
2:05
All right, interesting. We're learning stuff on the Jacksocks geography subreddit. We're not seeing anything related
2:09
to Jacksocks geography though. How I think USA should look as a non-American
2:14
is basically just you calling a lot of the USA boring, right? And then a lot of it is also just you
2:19
pointing out that these states look like a chef holding some KFC. Okay. I'm sure I entirely agree
2:27
I think there's some pretty cool areas within Big Boring R Place, but we'll move on. Without
2:32
using these letters, say what country you're from. All right, let's do it. I am from the U..
2:39
Oh, can't use N. Can't use I. Can use T. There we go. And then can't use K. There we go
2:45
Utud Ignam. That's not bad. Let's see if we can guess where. Oh, there's 6,000 comments. Well
2:50
let's see if we can work some of them out. Whoa, this person couldn't use any of the letters
2:54
Possibly Croatia. Oh, wait, they missed a D. It was Canada. Right, I want to play. People have
2:59
already beaten me to it. All right, T. Um, do you know what? I'm not smart enough for this
3:04
I genuinely can't do it. Wait, wait, wait. Germany. I could do that one. Trying to get a comment from
3:09
every u county whoa how many u counties are there there are 3244 so with 4500 comments it technically could have been possible but there is no way because you know we know how population density works Wait why is everybody from Ohio Cuyahoga County Ohio Summit County Ohio
3:27
Licking County, Ohio. Can we all shut up about Ohio? Pick a country to be born in and I shall choose your future
3:33
This summer is so active. People are just chatting away. They're just having a great time
3:37
2,400 comments on this one. All right, I am going to go with..
3:41
Do you know what? I'll pick Australia, please. Right now we just need to find someone that picked Australia so we can see what the replies
3:47
Uh, nobody picked Australia. Europe be like, Norway, Sweden, Finland. Because it's just like how the map, how the countries are shaped
3:58
That's just a fun little geography meme there. What do you call this island next to England
4:03
See, this is why I stopped doing videos on this subreddit. I just have nothing to contribute to these kind of posts
4:08
The map I made according to Romania's way of teaching in school how Europe is divided. Oh, okay, this is interesting. So Western Europe, actually pretty small, not that
4:17
many countries. Romania themselves have classed themselves as Central Europe. I've always thought
4:22
of them as Eastern Europe. I mean, these are all just regions. I guess it's all kind of made up, right? It's not like there's any actual specific governance of Central Europe. Romania and Moldova
4:30
stick out like an eyesore. They should be Eastern. Yeah, I think a lot of people would class them as
4:35
Eastern Europe, but, you know, it doesn't really matter at the end of the day. They can class themselves what they like. How many of these 50 cities have you visited? The average is eight
4:43
Oh, right. I am not going to be able to beat this. Are they all, oh, they're all in the United States
4:47
Okay. I've been to Los Angeles. Is that it? It's not looking good. Yeah. That's, that is it. That's
4:53
that's it. Okay. But I am from the United States. I imagine it's generally higher if you are in the
4:58
US. Zero. Someone that actually is lower than me. That's nice. And they got lots of upvotes too
5:02
The three of getting every comment from a US county. Oh, it's a little update
5:07
It has 9,000 comments. How is this subreddit so active? I cannot believe it
5:12
I don't think we're going to see a single post that has anything to do with me or my videos in this video
5:17
Well, they actually have a pretty good splattering, you know, considering there's 3,000 counties out there
5:22
It's surprising how many they've managed to fill up from this region, because I know it just isn't hugely populated generally
5:27
But obviously people could be lying too. You know, we don't even have any from Florida. How the hell did you get the entirety of Wyoming
5:32
but nothing in florida yeah do you know what i'm not sure i believe this guy at all i've just seen
5:37
the rules on the subreddit by the way this subreddit is solely for geography and content related to the
5:42
jack sucks at geography youtube channel yeah okay guys at this point you may as well just delete the
5:47
second half of this sentence name this country wrong answers only once again i don't have any
5:53
funny jokes you know when this subreddit was first set up i was planning on doing a monthly video
5:57
reacting to the top post i think we made about four months in before it was just all posts like
6:01
this and i just had nothing i could contribute anyway there's 6 000 comments so let's see if
6:05
anyone said anything funny united states enemy of the soviet onion i don't get it south canada
6:13
i like that one to be fair what country flags stand for okay let's announce announce so the
6:18
red within the u.s flag means freedom the blue means liberty and the yellow means not interfering
6:23
with other country oh it's a joke it's all it's a joke i actually wanted to learn italian flag
6:29
Oregano, mozzarella and tomato sauce. Meaning behind the colors on the German flag
6:33
Work, work, work, humor. Well the Greek flag stands for plenty of sea sun and money Even there not guys guys come on The Italian flag is wrong The green is for Basil yeah they missed a trick there i drew the united states from memory how did i do i mean it looks
6:48
pretty good to me as someone who is terrible at drawing maps from memory please do not watch my
6:54
i drew europe from memory video i really got uh roasted in the comments of that one people don't
6:58
believe it's been drawn from memory it's too accurate oh drawing europe from memory i am an
7:03
American. Um, it's not ideal. There's no Northern Ireland. Denmark's just floating by itself with
7:08
the wrong map. Is this, are they just baiting him? All the flags are wrong. We cannot accept this
7:13
No, all the other ones. The world, if the two biggest countries from each continent were removed
7:20
Oh, wow. That makes a huge difference. So let's see if we can name every single one that's missing
7:25
So we have Canada and the USA. Cool. We've got Brazil and Argentina. We have got, oh
7:31
Democratic Republic of Congo and Algeria. Oh, what's missing from Europe? Russia, obviously, and I guess it's Ukraine
7:38
Fair enough. Then we have China and, hmm, is anything else missing
7:43
Are they cutting Russia because it's Eurasian? Yeah, Kazakhstan would be gone, wouldn't it
7:47
And then, wait, Australia's still there. And Indonesia. What's been removed from Oshania
7:52
People are debating about Oshania being a continent. Australia is the continent in most agreed consensus
7:58
Nah, that's not true, is it? Australia is not a continent. You hear terms like Australasia, Zealandia, but nah, I mean, Oceania, surely, is what most people agree on
8:07
Nah, day eight of trying to get a comment from every US county. 3,900 comments
8:13
That is looking pretty full. There is no way this is accurate. I cannot believe it
8:17
I mean, it genuinely might be, though. Completed states. Oh, look at that. They have a bunch done
8:22
Dickey County, North Dakota. Oh, amazing. There are some incredible names out there
8:26
McDowell County. I probably just like the names of US counties. A lot of them sound so cute
8:31
Mineral County, Perry County, Ohio. Shocked that another one from Ohio. Wow, this is crazy, you know
8:37
Ah, Justin's kicking off. Dude, this will be the third time I've commented Summit County, Ohio on these
8:43
And on this picture, it's still great. What the hell? Yeah, individual media 6704
8:49
Get it sorted out, man. If you were to remove a state, which one would it be
8:53
Yeah, there's a lot of these kind of posts. And a lot of posts about the United States in general
8:57
Both positive and negative. Guess where I live based on this map? Countries that I don't live in and then the country that I do live in
9:05
So that's where you live based on the map. What country is that? Is it Slovakia
9:10
Is it Slovenia? I think it's Slovakia. I'm going to lock in Slovakia, please. Phew
9:13
Yeah, we got it. We got it. US according to non-Americans. All right, we've seen about a million of these already
9:19
Day 13 of trying to get a comment from every US county. He's getting there, you know
9:23
Look at that. Impressive. I suppose. Whoa. Hello? Oh my God. I'm so enhanced, enhanced
9:29
Let me zoom out a bit. I suppose it'd get to a point where as it gets closer and closer
9:33
you'll have friends like reaching out to people, asking them to comment if they're from the correct place
9:38
because people just want to see it filled in because I mean, it's very, very close at this point
9:43
Which state do you always forget about? Oh, so when I try and fill in the states
9:48
generally the M's, one of the M's that I miss, Missouri. I'm constantly missing Missouri
9:53
I think I remember Iowa. Minnesota, I often forget as well. Little Rody slips out my brain a lot
9:58
Is that Rhode Island nickname Little Rody Well that cute How Americans see Europe versus how Europeans see America so you can work both ways there you go we all just as dumb as each other all right
10:09
there's so many just what would you call this nation what is this called wrong answers only
10:14
what country is this and then you just have to give like a stupid funny answer i just don't care
10:20
what swear words are popular in countries oh look at all these foreign swear words probably not
10:24
not gonna read any out just in case some are like deeply offensive slurs. Egypt is smaller than the
10:30
United States, Russia, and China combined. Yep, that you are correct. Name anything and I'll link
10:36
it to Chad. No, thank you. Day three of getting a comment from every US county but purple. Why
10:42
The red one was fine. Let's not bother again. It's got 5,000 comments. People go mad for this
10:48
kind of thing. Oh, I just don't care about any of these posts. Oh my God, it's me. We've actually
10:54
found something that is related to me. Tell me your favorite flag and I'll see if you're allowed
10:59
in. So it's a meme template where I'm in the image. So this works even if you don't know who I am
11:05
Let's check the comments. There's 3000 of them. Let's see if anyone's asking like, who's that guy
11:09
or whatever. All right. Seychelles has been given blue, which is all your drinks are on us. Nah
11:15
Seychelles is one of the top ones, right? You know, it's like near guest of honor material
11:19
Guernsey is little known, but cooks with flags. Let's have a look at the Guernsey flag. I can't
11:23
visualize it. Uh, it's all right. It's not, you know, it's fine. I'm not saying it's a bad flag
11:27
but it's not blowing me away. Okay. I have loaded all 3000 comments. Let's control F and search
11:33
Jack. Oh, oh, union Jack. Okay. That doesn't count. Then we've just got, you know, the subreddit
11:38
names. We've got someone called Jack still haven't been mentioned. Oh, that's another YouTuber called
11:44
jack another person called jack yep that's not going to do me okay that's them all i didn't get
11:49
a mention so we got our face there but we didn't get a mention anywhere that's cool that's nice
11:54
that's a lot of fun actually madagascar gladagascar sadagascar outagascar just a fun little little
12:02
geography meme there just a bit of fun really trying to get a comment from every country in
12:07
the world day one i mean it's a pretty solid start how's this day one how have you already
12:12
got comments got a bit least there too right guess the two missing countries oh i'm normally so bad
12:17

12:23
i've got one i've got one cambodia is missing and can we work out the other one taiwan taiwan's not
12:29
there have we done it taiwan doesn't feature on every map so there might be a third one cambodia
12:33
taiwan yes all right bored i'm bored of these kind of posts now don't care don't care there's
12:41
There's nothing I can say to any of this. Cool map of the world in chicken nuggets
12:45
Um, okay. It's not bad. You can see where everywhere's meant to be
12:49
Europe's a bit chunky. Quite a bit missing over here in sort of Southeast Asia, but we'll allow it
12:54
All right, I have scrolled through many posts. I'm not finding anything that I can contribute anything of value to
13:01
We've also not found anything else to do with me other than that one minor cameo
13:05
where I don't think anybody recognized me. So this subreddit has truly set off on a life of its own
13:11
Thank you very much for watching. I will be back in a year's time to do another update
13:15
I'm sure by then it'll be one of the biggest subreddits on Reddit for some reason. But you know what
13:19
It's kind of cool. I don't mind at all. Thank you very much for watching. Please do subscribe and I will see you all later
