I can't tell if this guy is funny or if I just need to poop
-
The irony of me watching you go on a dopamine fast for my shot of instant dopamine is fascinating
-
It is genuinely shocking that Drew didn't think to go outside his house once during a week long challenge to not use technology
-
Quick tip: You actually don’t have to wait till the end of a free trial to cancel. You can cancel immediately after entering your information and the trial will still last the whole week.
-
I stopped learning German on Duolingo solely because my streak ended 💀
-
I love that Instagram's algorithm concluded that because Drew kept buying everything they advertised to him, he must be going through something and needs mental health apps.
-
“I will not be spending a single dollar” He’s evolving. Soon he’ll be making money from these apps
-
I have to say it is very dangerous how obsessed we are with being productive It's definitely important to cut out things that make us feel like shit, but it's also important to remember that spending time doing things we love, even if they may not be productive or beneficial to society, is not a waste of time.
-
Whenever I feel superior to someone else for not having a Twitter addiction I have to remember that I literally do the exact same thing just with Tumblr and maybe Pinterest if I feel adventurous
-
i’m losing it at drew getting through all of day 7 with no thoughts of reading a book lmfao
-
Drew is so relatable, my boyfriend and I watch all of his videos. If a deep fake came out of him beating someone up, I'd probably believe it was well-deserved.
-
Drew looks like he was either born to be a comedian or a coal miner
-
For someone as nice as Drew, the “Oh my god, are you fucking blind?” was so perfectly angry and bitter. Beautiful delivery on that.

The long guy is standing in front of running subway child
-
Drew judging me for stupidly staring at subway surfers while he was talking made me respect him even more tbh
-
As someone who has actually been diagnosed with ADHD, I've never ever ever ever ever used a productivity app that wasn't just an extra layer of distraction on top of whatever else I need to achieve.
-
The adhd one is especially bad when you realise they're targeting a group of people more likely to impulse buy expensive things they don't need... the very group they're claiming to help...
-
“I stopped eating, sleeping and breathing because the internet told me to” Geez Drew you’re living on the wild side
-
I love how the concept of books never crossed Drew’s mind. He’s truly an honorary gen Z
-
24:43 I love the absolute timing of the universe when Drew said you could enjoy "the ambient noises of nighttime outside your window" and a car alarm instantly went off for 5 minutes.
