Mostly, games with my friends.

Other times it comes from a place of caring.

Like I'm hyperaware of everyone's feelings.

And I feel this intense responsibility to make sure no one feels left out.

Dude I love the one wheel. It feels like I'm flying.

Right? All that terrain all the time!

I haven't quite figured out the dismount yet, but I'm getting there.

We have to go to Santa Monica to ride at low tide. It is fantastic.

Yesss!

Wow... One wheels huh?

That sounds like too much fun.

The two of you have one wheels?

I only have two wheels.

You have two one wheels?!

No I have two wheels in one.

Oh you mean like a bicycle?

A motorcycle.

Oh! I mean -- that's cool though.

Cus it's like... If you have one that breaks, you have another.

Yeah and you had to take a test for your two wheels. Whereas, we just bought our one wheels.

Yeah but the two of you are having so much fun with one wheel.

Oh my god D:

Thank you.

One day I'll have one wheel.

Today I just have two.

Sometimes it's really stupid.

Like I care about winning so much.

More than any one person should.

I am down to go above and beyond just for the knowledge that I won.

*cringe*

You're gonna throw up.

Throwing up.

But taking things seriously is part of the reason why I'm here.

I mean this shot looks kinda nice right?

Look how much effort it took.

I take comedy seriously.

NO! The punch line has to end with the word banana or the whole thing falls apart!

I take my friends seriously.

Why didn't you attend movie night last Thursday?

You clicked attending on the Facebook event but you didn't attend.

Anna.

I'm sorry ;-;

Like you know how things are -- it's Facebook.

I'll make the next one.

You didn't even post on the event wall.

I'll die over a Facebook thing.

You didn't even text me.

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY EXTRA SNACKS I HAD?!

CAUSE TWO PEOPLE I THOUGHT WERE GONNA ATTEND DIDN'T SHOW UP.

I even take masturbating seriously.

Seriously, I have tried so many dildos; I've done so much research.

Hehehe just kidding.

What? Do you think I'm actually gonna do a masturbation cutaway?

Tch, get the fuck out of here.

*phone vibrates*

Seriously get the fuck out of here I have to stay on schedule.

I've had people telling me to stop taking life so seriously,

and I know what they mean.

They mean don't stress yourself out over things that don't matter.

But the problem is, only you can decide what matters.

If Nerf games and role playing is something I'm passionate about, of course I'm going to treat it differently

And we all have those things, right?

Like I have a friend who's very intense about knitting.

Or someone who's obsessed with metal music.

I also have a friend who like loves and collects rocks so hard.

And I think that this is a great thing.

I think everyone's passions should be encouraged.

Because think about it. If we didn't, then nothing would ever improve.

Someone had to care about the Nerf darts so much that they created the Accustrike dart

Which has better range and doesn't wobble as much as the other one because of it's rubber tip no matter what Wren and Jake say

So no matter what you take seriously, keep it up.

You know? Don't be worried that it makes you weird.

Because it's also what makes you, you.

I'm Anna Akana, stay awesome Gotham.

Thank you so much for Wren and Jake for being on the episode today.

Wren and Jake are from the Sam and Niko and the Corridor Digital channel.

I've put a playlist together of a lot of my favorite videos of theirs.

You can watch right here.

And it includes a video of me in this ridiculous mushroom hat.

So feel free to check it out.
