I said a lot more than just my name. Plus there's a great photo of me as a teenager so you should really go watch it.

"Maybe you're procrastinating something by watching my procrastinate."
i feel so attacked right now
One year later, still under attack over here.
yup
TouchĂ© đ€Ł
Damn it
Same lol
That boopy noise when she scanned your card was the best
I thought this - It sounds like the TED start up theme
Science with Katie : Hi Katie, love your channel.
I noticed that as well. It's the little things.
how in the world do you always get the most likes in all videos Katie?
Science with Katie girl you really need to get off CZcams you watch way too many videos
Loved the talk, and this video. Sending highly scientific prayers into the ether for May 30th. -John
collab plz
If she gets cancer make a book about her john
Donk 2x đ
Sending highly scientific trump to Whitehouse?
JOHN!!
Her sense of humour is so contagious...this channel makes me feel better after having a really bad day, great TED talk, just watched it...
Victor Muhia could not agree more! Shes so strong. The googly eye bit made me laugh and cry. Stay strong you!
Her sense of tumor is too
Same!
@@2nd3rd1st bruh lol
Ditto
Just think, if you do need to wear an eyepatch you can put a googly eye on it.
Jim's videos My daughter has some awesome eye patches she would be happy to share. She's a fan.
Best comment
I honestly thought the exact same thing!
1?
Jim's videos that would look so creepy
On the plus side, with the nerve wracking Ted Talk now done, after the surgery you'll really have a huge load off your mind. #TumorHumour (For real, though, good luck!)
Today I Found Out lmao
Well hello there
That's a weird combo of US/UK spelling!
TumorHumor or TumourHumour I could understand, but TumorHumour?
I think you need to take a break from the intarwebz Simon, it's mangling your native (correct) spelling ;-)
To totally add to the confusion, being a Swede, Simone would have a Swedish Tumour, which is spelt Tumör. So TumörHumör (No, not making this up!).
That's some pretty good multilinqual word play she's got going on there!
Get well soon Simone, the world needs more terrible puns!
I love this.
This must be someone else working at TIFO. Simon is nowhere near this witty.
"maybe you're procrastinating by watching me procrastinating."
whoah Simone, where'd you hide the camera.
I love seeing Adam sporting a googlie(sp?) eye! đâđš
Procrastichores: Doing things that *kinda* need to be done to avoid doing something else that *really* needs to be done.
Tony James when I was in college, I was fabulous at procrastibaking, which is similar, because itâs baking first and then you get the added distraction of cleaning up afterwards. Never mind the fact I had a newborn too, that helps.
"Wrap my head around..." Wonderfully bad!
Jim Fortune lol I didn't even get that. Good one Simone! XD
"I only slept 8 hours this night"
For me it is like one of my longest nights
when she said that i was like... that's what i do... i always sleep more than 8h and feel good, 12h is not uncommon but over that is only happening when i'm really tired, i think my record is like 27h or so? i slept 12h and found myself still very tired so i just doubled it, after which it felt weird but good... funnily i can't say that to anyone, as they would complain about me "oversleeping" if it's over 8h... unsure, if never feel bad then why... i also seem to deal with stress such way... i don't know, just nice alone time and such... and i need lot of time for myself... addionally, people should not try to disturb my sleep unless they want to know what this quiet boy can turn into
Sulev-Madis Silber 27h???
@@ketas Holy hell my best was probably somewhere around 18 hours. You sure are sleepy :D
My best is 10 hrs
They have Badge scanners making ted noises! This is so posh.
I head that too. That's such a strange detail.
Really enjoyed the talk. Thanks for that! Now you can focus on yourself. Totally
pulling for you!
I absolutely love your sense of humour in regards to life and everything involved
Ryan True same
You're the high point of CZcams, sister. TED talks WERE made for the like of you.
You represent a disproportionate share of the good and beautiful things humans have to give to the universe and each other.
Seriously, I'd name my daughter after you if Simone wasn't a male name where I live :D
We love you so much, and we're grateful for what you are. Stay strong
wow that's such a nice comment
I put the "pro" in procrastination :)
That googly eye shirt is amazing! Also, your Mom is so elegant-looking. Also-also...CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR TED TALK!
Isn't her mom like a TV presenter or something? Makes sense she'd be elegant.
The TED talk was amazing đ great job đȘ
Im worried that shirt could give you a brain tumor.....
Her mom is a tv presenter for a swedish tv show called "det okÀnda", its about ghosts and mediums helping families lol. Its my guilty pleasure watching it
Also,â you are boring @xingcat.
Saw the TED talk. You did very well. Awesomely in fact. And you say "I dont know what Ive done to deserve all of us" when talking about our full support, the answer to that is you are just a genuinely awesome person, you are authentic, youre passionate about your interest and we love having you around :)
*raises hand* I SECOND THAT MOTION!
@@dustysparks I THIRD IT!
HEY! YOUR SURGERY IS TOMORROW! WE WISH YOU THE VERY VERY BEST AND MAY YOUR DOCTORS HANDS BE NON-SHITTY!
Why are there only 8 likes on this comment from a verified account I am confused
I was so happy to find you through your TED Talk. You have helped me get inspired again to make things.
Simone: "Maybe you're procrastinating something by watching me procrastinate."
Me: "What, like the Advanced Russian exam I have in less than 24 hours that I haven't studied for? Or packing up my dorm room for imminent move-out? Nah, I'm not procrastinating."
Secret Forreddit dude, as a Russian - best of luck to you!!
Hey i can speak Russian too... but they said it was a terrible idea to take it as a university class and i'm doing Spanish instead.
ĐŽĐ°ĐČĐ°Đč!
Secret Forreddit or cleaning me house by tomorrow? Psh......naw
Or packing all my stuff and cleaning out my dorm room to go back to Norway in just a few days? naaahh, I never procastinate!
We all like this person. Good human.
Just finished watching the talk. You were phenomenal. Good luck with the surgery. You will be in my thoughts on the 30th. May the advancements of medical science be with you.
You are so inspiring! As an young woman trying to go into a stem field, your passion, humor, and innovation encourage me to pursue my passion but remind me not to take setbacks or any one project too seriously. I tend to suffer from anxiety and perfectionism so this is a lesson that is really important for me to take in. Thank you so much for being your awesome quirky self and sharing it with us! I hope your surgery goes well. You will be in my thoughts that day.
You're an amazing woman! I know you'll get through the surgery just fine. Sending my best to you!! Thank You
Procrastinators unite......tomorrow.
Today I procrastinated productively, by building a concrete step for my front door, instead of fixing my car. I just wanna stay at home, clearly.
i swear, im on it. we'll be united soon I just have a few things to do before.
i'm wearing a T-shirt right this moment that's saying I'll conquer the world...tomorrow...
nahh, it's still time until next week ...
Can't, I have to avoid studying tomorrow.
Had to watch the talk now, and laughed all the way through. You were a little nervous, but you pushed through it, and even incorporated that nervousness into the talk - it was awesome, and so are you. Thank you!
Saw your TED talk yesterday! Not only surprised you went through with it considering the circumstances, but so happy for!!!đ€
I would buy one of those eye pendants that Adam was wearing so I can support with the surgery
NOW SHE DOES FASHION. I am so baffled. I am in awe
The TED talk was exactly what I needed at this point of my life! I have been feeling so down and useless lately, there are so many goals that I want to achieve and I never really end up spending more than a few hours on them before giving up BECAUSE of performance anxiety. I am definitely going to take your advice and plan for success by planning to succeed in creating something that fails!
Thank you for the TED talk and All the best for the surgery! I look forward to seeing more from you! The world, but mostly me, definitely needs it!
I really do hope eveything gets ok after the surgery. I saw your TED, then started to follow at the social media channels and I think you're amazing. It's very important to have someone like you in the world, so please don't die. And get a quick recovery!
When they put you under anesthesia, you should sing "Daisy" in voices that keep changing pitch. Then do it again when they wake you up.
The young doctors will just think you're weird, but the older ones will laugh themselves into comas. Also, just before you go into surgery, say "What do you think you're doing, Dave?" in a strangely flat voice.
Or maybe not.
Best wishes and prayers for a successful surgery that leaves all your important parts intact.
WhereWhatHuh ion get it
this
This is a reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey, an epic science fiction film from 1968. In it the AI gets a little... well, it gets a little funny, and Spaceman Dave ends up having to do some emergency brain (sort of) surgery on it.
I suddenly found myself reading your comment in Peter Sellers's President Merkin Muffley voice:
"Just a little ... you know ... funny. And, he ... went and did a silly thing.
"He sent our pods to attack your astronaut."
#tumorhumour
You are Amazing! I love all your videos, I send you all the best and look forward to hearing from you post surgery. Congratulations on your Ted Talk Simone, that's an incredible achievement . Thank You!
Thank you so much for the video Simone, I wish you nothing but the best with your surgery and recovery!
Really enjoyed your TED talk and am so glad people like you exist. Really makes the world a more fun place to live. Good luck and I'm sure you know but everyone is rooting for you.
Iâm 60% sure the googley eyes shirt was just you drunk purchased 1000 on amazon and needed to do something with them đ
123 456 You don't know me.
Yay new video! It felt like the whole internet was waiting for this!
loved watching your ted talk vid !!! you're the best !!! best wishes for a speedy recuperation after surgery !!!
congratulations and standing ovations... well merited.... you do a unique kind of things in your unique way and it makes feel good watching you doing it.... thanks for that and be back soon... all the best for the surgery...
Omg this was entertaining hope your feeling better.
imo
What you've done to deserve people caring about you?
Oh...spread a combination of joy and intelligence around in a world where both are rare.
Good luck in the surgery...prayers rise like smoke.
imo
Simone, your Ted talk was excellent! Especially enjoyed the Googlie Eye shirt.
Be strong, be yourself on surgery day. Fall asleep thinking of the most awesome happy place.
The great meds will keep you in your happy place until it's over.
My son had a brain tumor which was considered inoperable but a fine surgeon disagreed
and so glad he was a champion much like yourself. The world is a better place with people
like you! Safe journey....until you're back on CZcams!
Teddy GingerBear Maybe Google should sponsor mass production of this shirt? đ€
Omg I'm so proud of you! I cried (happily) while watching your talk. You did a great job honestly!!
Prayers for your surgery and a speedy, complete recovery!!! đđđđ
Proof you prayed or its meaningless (also proof there is any influence as a result of "praying" )
Power to you Simone!!!đđđ 1.1million positive vibes coming your way now and May30!!!!!
I'm in love with your googley eye shirt, but I am also crying after watching your TED talk. â„ Perfect advice for a perfectionist; I hope your surgery goes well, and will be praying with you on the 30th!
Your talk was really good! You are one of the most genuine and heartfelt persons on the internet. That is why we love you. Keep it up!
Literally watching this at work. Procrastination at it's worst, the struggle is real.
I have never ever seen you look so nervous, but you nailed it! Rad TED talk, SImone! *very proud high five*
You are a gift to our world and we are cheering you on! Thank you Simone for just being you and sharing you with little old us!!
Simone you've given my fav ted talk of all the ted talks i've listened to.
I'm procrastinating studying for my final right now! đ
Simone, you just can't stop making brain tumor jokes, can you? It's like it's always in your head.
Man
Did not hit lol
Damn
You have a great sense of tumor
I just watched your TED talk. I enjoyed it. You made it very light-hearted.
Simone, I will pray for your quick recovery, also you did an awesome job on TED, perfect presentation. Have someone get on after your operation on May 30th and let us know how your doing.
You Returned! đ±
Don't Worry, Your Family & Friends are always with you. Along with your Fans!
Thank You & God Bless You!
Hello my midnight special
Ha
I wonder what poison I would have now..
Rafal Omnom Depends on what you want to see
Hentai Haven your comment and your channel name are directly in contrast and I love it
Yeah, yeah. The TED talk was awesome and amazing and all that and you did a really great job not having shaky hands during it and not forgetting the words and being an inspiration and standing ovation and blah blah blah but can we talk about THAT GOOGLEY EYE SHIRT?!!!! Thoroughly amazing. Just like you!
Your TED talk was awesome. It brought me here. Get well. Best wishes and good thoughts coming your way.
I only just discovered you through your hilarious and inspiring TED talk! I've gotta say thank you, your sense of humour is exceptional and i haven't had such a good laugh in ages watching all of your videos!! And i found how you relate to your performance anxiety super helpful, how you described it resonated with me and i'll take your tips into my own work. Honestly made my day, and how awesome you have Adam Savage supporting you! All the best with the coming months, sending you good vibes and strength. Keep doing you and if worst comes to worst, you'd rock an eyepatch. Wishing you a speedy recovery, the universe needs good humans like you.
Your videos always make my day, best wishes! and congratulations on your ted talk!
Lol when she said "alexa" my alexa turned on and answered the question
really? haha. that's funny. :)
a Andrew? Same here I was so confused
aww robot friends
Just watched your TED talk, good show Simone! All the best of health, wealth and happiness. đ
Simone, your laugh and your smile are both beautiful and contagious, you're being incredibly strong and have a wonderful attitude to life and your situation, I loved your TED talk, hope everything goes well! Will be waiting to hear! đ
Your TED Talk was absolutly incredible I mean the way you said your name was just...I have no words thank you for these incredible 5s đ
I pray that you had nothing to do with building any of the machine they will use in the hospital. We are all sending you love and support for your surgery and (hopefully) full recovery
I usually don't care for TED Talks, but when I saw yours show up on my feed, clicked super fast! I really enjoyed it :) thanks for sharing the message.
Loved your TED talk...it was awesomeđđ
And don't be worried about the tumor.... you'll be fineâșïž
Love you!!
Glad you can keep the humor and hope everything works out ok
"The thing is I'm very productive when I procrastinate... just in areas that are completely irrelevant."
THE description of my life :D
Then you should really read "The Procrastination Matrix" on waitbutwhy.com
Best of luck, Simone! You're an absolute treasure of a person. Congrats on your TED Talk!
The TED Talk was great and very inspiring. I think a lot of us never realize that fear is one of the biggest influences in our lives, causing us to change direction and often not in the right direction...well said Simone....thanks and Best Wishes!!!
I study abroad in Vancouver and I had no idea my school was so close to the TED talk building. Had I known I would have definitely come to your TED talk.
I wish I could give this more than just one thumbs up. And as someone else mentioned, someone needs to make googley eye badges so we can all buy one and then meet random Simone supporters.
Sending as much scientific positive thoughts or vibrations or wishes or random acts of kindness your way Simone.
Youâre in my prayers! It will be ok we will remain positive! Bless you Simone!
You Ted Talk is great! Congratulations! I'll definitely be sharing it today. Great message, Simone.
Love that Adam was there for support! Such a supportive person in general. :)
Yay you are back , how are you doing . Just wanted to let you know Iâm praying for you and your recovery
Loved your TED Talk, best of luck with the surgery!
I just stumbled across the Ted talk, you did a great job!! I laughed, I cried. (ok, just laughed) I think that is the most addictive aspect of your videos-your enthusiasm and "let's just have fun" mentality.
God bless you in this surgery.
1:37 Yes I am! I should be making my next video right now!!
I'll get to it tomorrow...
cool channel dude!!!
Hi Simone!
I watched the ted talk first and then I noticed that I've seen lots of your videos without knowing who did them. Your TED talk is literary amazing!!! It is great to know you have a beautiful youtube channel. My father survived intestine cancer and hart surgery, I wish you survive as well. OR ACTUALLY YOU HAVE TO!! Our planet needs people like you, and I'm excited to see more videos.
Thank you
Karim
I am procrastinating by watching the video, but I came here from watching your ted talk, which was amazing, and one of my favorites. I love all your robots and stuff, thank you for making all your amazing videos!! And I will keep you in mind on the 30th, that's something I won't procrastinate on!
"Maybe you're procrastinating something by watching me procrastine."
How dare you viciously attack me with the truth?
You are the coolest person on the internet I swear
Holy shit the talk was amazing. I also have performance anxiety and I'm amazed how you turned things around. Speaking of turning things around, all the best for your surgery!
stay strong, really great to see the sense of humor is still about. Looking forward seeing you back on youtube. take care.
Simone! You don't understand what ball of joy and happiness you are and bring to the CZcams community! Thank you! Much love
- S1N20Y
Get well soon Simone, we're all cheering for you!
I just watched the ted talk, it was amazing. Great job. You are very talented!

Iâm so happy to see you Simone â€ïž
You're a vlogger now!
Looking forward to seeing more videos after the 30th :)
I just watched your ted talk, and now this video. They were both totally groovy :D
I hope your surgery, and healing go well, and you can get back to doing this nutty stuff soon.
i loved your talk simone! you should make a video with your mom once youâve taken time to heal â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Love you! You will be victorious!
