Hank GreenPeople like “that’s an hour of my life I’ll never get back” as if we would have been diligently editing Wikipedia or fixing your bathroom sink with that hour. No, we would have been watching Instagram Reels of people falling down and we know it.

CellularMoose@hankgreen I wasn't expecting to get personally attacked today, on Christmas nonetheless
Beeks@hankgreen

Talulla@Beeks @hankgreen That's not fair, I'm under 50 but keep accidentally getting sucked into reels.
I think they put some kind of subsonic noise that compels me to watch at least 10 reels before realizing what has happened.

@Talulla @hankgreen I apologize but the people have spoken. 😉
@hankgreen Sir I'll have you know I've been very busy wondering about the anatomy of the centaur. Do they have a human heart and lungs? Would that even be strong enough to run their horse body? What about their digestion? Do centaur eat grass and grains or human food?
☕️ NerdfighterNichole 🧦@hankgreen but we COULD have done something productive, Hank. The possibility is there even if the probability is low 😉
the_curiostech@hankgreen reason number 372 of why I haven’t written in my blog for 372 days and counting
pfalabella@hankgreen nah, I know I won't do that.... but I could have wasted my time in more pleasant and satisf.... Ohhhh, cat picture!
Listerine Lavender Mint@hankgreen who’s to say that would have been a waste of time??
Earl Miles@hankgreen sure but don’t underestimate the joy that would’ve brought next to the not joy that was experienced in that lost hour.
elisa 
@hankgreen okay but I would like more time for me to laugh at people falling
eddy@hankgreen this is true
daz@hankgreen listen here i totally would have finished my writing… haha.. oh look at that guys a new youtube short lets go watch that
Firepal3D@hankgreen you lose more hours of your life staying in bed way too much in the morning
Calligrafae@hankgreen speak for yourself, I'd have been calligraphying naughty words.
Michael FenichelYup.... my two (or three) cents:
Back to the bathroom sink. (Don't do Instagram.).
Merry (offline/online) Christmas!
Blake Leonard@hankgreen
That phrase is usually used when the time would have been better spent watching Reels

Miles Goodhew@hankgreen True, but I try to apply the test "Was this more or less valuable than staring at a blank wall for the same period of time?"
WaldoButtersDF@hankgreen snuggling with my girls... Reading scifi... Scrolling endlessly. All this is yes!
Jack! 🏳️🌈@hankgreen To be fair, those videos WERE pretty funny
insilicobiology@hankgreen but but but i could have been doing some coding and analyzing ridiculous datasets to self amuse me 😅
@hankgreen This is actually kind of depressing lmao
Andrew Feeney@hankgreen Me after spending an hour fixing my sink: "That's an hour of my life I'll never get back. To think I could have been watching Instagram Reels of people falling down that whole time!"

President of Noble Committee®️@hankgreen what do you know?
lupus_blackfur@hankgreen

No...
Not as long as there are college football bowls that need watching...
Maybe after mid-Jan.
FreakinFoss 
@hankgreen I am the person who would be fixing the sink LOL
Omooba@hankgreen lmaoooo
Inspired@hankgreen What do you say to those who would have spent that hour diligently editing a supercut of people falling down?
You can't find them because they've not done. It always takes hours more than you expected. But it's what the world needs in these dark times.
Tng88@hankgreen thank to those who editing Wikipedia.
Work now, enjoy late
Work now, enjoy late
Upthorn@hankgreen I mean, sometimes watching instagram reels of people falling down would still have been a better use of an hour!
Richard Craven@hankgreen
Yebbut I watched "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and she didn't say it was crap and I didn't say it was crap so we both sat through close to 3 hours of utter drivel that would have been much better spent down the pub. Or watching grass grow.

@hankgreen Nope ... reels have got to be the stupidest things ever whose goal is to dumb people down. Refuse to watch.

@hankgreen Speak for yourself.
MikeZilla Minus One@hankgreen excellent
but seriously - we can be watching shit for an hour and have that reaction and actually we can be watching other slightly better shit
Adron 🤘🏻@hankgreen @veverkap which is often a more enjoyable use of time than the thing we *lost* it to… so there’s that.
