The editing makes it even better. Such a perfect representation of that point in the evolution of every running joke, where just knowing it's _about to_ be mentioned becomes hilarious.
@@bentrod3405honestly the entirety of witchlight is like this. I'm like 7 episodes in and every 30 seconds of that show is clip worthy, the bits NEVER stop
@@drbjr99 lul headphones woulda made it worse. People would see you doubled over laughing and have no context as to why. At least without headphones they'd hear what you're watching, and maybe laugh along with you.
That's not a nice thing to say about the Welsh! I mean, sure, they have unpronounceable place names and refuse to use vowels, but they're not bad enough to be damned!
Yeah, as a forever DM, I get this. Once I accidentally said sober instead of somber to describe a scene and my friends still reminded me of it. That was twenty years ago!!
As a DM for a party of idiots, assholes, and the best friends I've ever had, I know that look that she has. The " I hate every single one of you " look. I wear it weekly.
They also don't take drinks when they know they're just gonna be idiots, which happens 99% of the time. The other 1% is when they finally get on with the main plotline with slightly less crack.
My dnd party did this to strahd, we called him anything but his actual name and it drove our DM nuts, to the point that he would threaten that he was going to add damage points to his attacks 😂
i haven't commented on these in so long due to my living situation and my depression but this always makes me smile and laugh and now that chuckles is a main line character I'm very happy. So i want all of the people who do this to know how thankful I am for all that you do you all put a smile on my face in the most grim dark of moments and times
Children: *are missing, being eaten by a witch* DnD Party: *making fun of the witches name and laughing uproariously* Do you ever get a flash of just how bad it is to be an NPC in these tabletop games? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This stuff is my favorite part of DnD and dropping real people into a fantasy world “This is very serious-“ “YOUR NAME IS A VERY FUNNY NAME” Demoralize the witch! She’s been taking herself seriously for too long
The way they gradually just smirk at each other after hearing "I hate to tell you this, but Grýla-" and instantly dying after Nikkie realizes the mistake she made cracks me up. 🤣
Their laugh is infectious. To prove this I removed a broken air vent cover in my school and placed a Bluetooth speaker hooked up to a power bank that fed electricity to the speaker so it would not die and replaced the broken vent cover. After that a cult arose and prayed to the vents. this happens at 12:10 am at the 23d second. ( all the vents were interconnected so the sounds would reverberate down the vent,I also replace the battery every 67 days )that was 1 year ago and the cult now has 32 people that meet up at lunch every day at 12:10 ans the teachers haven’t found the source
i heard they took over a kingdom and changed the currencies to be named after them, the heroes have a bounty on their heads now too , One Gryllian gold pieces.
Matt Mercer once said he was going to change all npc names to Steve because every time he introduced a new npc they made fun of it. Players are monsters sometimes
On one hand, this could all have been avoided if Grýla had been pronounced correctly (more like gr-ee-la) On the other hand, we would have missed out on this absolutely masterpiece
@CrudeBuster I am unsure if your comment was supposed to come off as mocking or humorous but will assume the latter x] It is a wonder humans speaking different languages ever figured out how to properly communicate and I bet there were lots of amusing moments along the way xD

@@dukeofwisdom9118 It was like Donkey and Shrek when they first looked at each other and started laughing. Absolutely great!
Torbek laughed himself into the fucking fifth dimension

The slow lean in then explosion of laughter destroyed me. I couldn't breathe for a solid 30 seconds.
Nah, he laughed himself into Dimension20

Good one 😂😂
Not gonna lie you got me dying😂🤣
nice one

10 out of 10 for that
The brace for impact at the end is what gets my gorilla, I mean goose.

It is actually from icelandic folklore

This one shot is great. It’s just three hours of them being as ridiculous as possible. It’s a little long but its worth the watch imo.

That's why I wear headphones.

I hate to tell you this but Grýla...
*Uproarious laughter*
Whats the move called? Hideous laughter?
I think that would certainly be hideous laughter
No it's called gryla tactics
It would’ve been so funny if someone just broke the silence and said “deadass?”

Andy's scream laugh is so good.
Andy laughing into the 5th dimension kills me every time I see this bit
He’s probably tied for the best laughter with Mace. I laugh to the point of gagging whenever I hear them laughing together.
“I hate to tell you this but….Gryla”

Demonic cetaceans are not to be trifled with.
"Yes, and also I think there's gonna be a gorilla"

I literally did. I'm choking! Water!
I've looped this 10 times and that part specifically tears into my stomach 😂

That was twenty years ago!!
Those are good friends.
Our DM had 2, beboulder and drowbridge
@@befuddlingvisage5427 One sounds kind of kinky and the other just sounds funny.

"what a rocky situation! Back to the Honk Legion I go!!'
Hell yeah the good ol Steven king method
As a DM for a party of idiots, assholes, and the best friends I've ever had, I know that look that she has. The " I hate every single one of you " look. I wear it weekly.
How have this bunch not laughed themselves to death!?
I mean, there's a reason Mace isn't at this table, he wouldn't have made it out alive
because from what I've seen, they don't snack at the table lmao
They also don't take drinks when they know they're just gonna be idiots, which happens 99% of the time. The other 1% is when they finally get on with the main plotline with slightly less crack.
@@smolbluegoblinno truer words have been spoken 😂 he would’ve either stopped breathing or just ascend to the astral plane immediately.
God damnit, I swear there has not been a single clip of y'all's that hasn't managed to make me lose it laughing lol. 🤣

"Is it a charcoal gryla or a propane gryla" is an underrated line lmaooo
That final part had me in tears watching the ep
I love the breakdown of the party at the very end.
"I hate to tell you this, but... GORILLA"
(whole party takes 5d12 laughing damage)
“You probably shouldn’t let us in. If children are going missing. We’re just gonna make it worse!” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣
The gryla tactics bit always gets me
My dnd party did this to strahd, we called him anything but his actual name and it drove our DM nuts, to the point that he would threaten that he was going to add damage points to his attacks 😂
This perfectly summarizes the DM experience. You can’t make up any names. All the villains are named Bob.
And the PCs will still find a way to derail everything into ridiculous shenanigans.
It's bobbin time.
Bobbin on my co-
So you're sayin' Bob's yer Uncle?
Andy's scream laughs are the BEST. I need a comp.
The pause after gyrla gets me every time. The looks they give. The looks man. It’s the looks! 😂
I fucking loved that nikkie was this close to throwing hands with mike lmao
To quote one of your colleagues "From now on, all NPCs are named 'David'."
Mike Hunt! Mike Hunt!
Nikkie has patience of thousand people, I swear...
You didn't leave a window of opportunity open, you left the whole roof off.
Torbek laughing like the Mexican laughing man meme made my day.
Because she's using... gryla tactics OH HOOHOOHOOOOHH
bro on god i died.
She almost ended that bugbear player at the end with a power word Gryla.
Hope the crowning event goes smoothly and no one goes bananas during it
"Yes and I also think there's going to be a gorilla"
I need this animated.😂😂😂
Well there you go, you have it

Mace would've passed out at this one hahaha
I absolutely love Andy’s hysterical squawk laughter!! 😂
Torbek unleashed his inner El Risitas (RIP)
The “yes, and I also think there going to be a gorilla 🦍” 😂😂
i haven't commented on these in so long due to my living situation and my depression but this always makes me smile and laugh and now that chuckles is a main line character I'm very happy.

I believe in chuckles supremacy
I js kept screaming "GORRR-RILLLL-AAAAA"
From tarzan LMAO
WILD GO RILL AAA ON THE LOOSE
Half the fun is seeing Nickie get riled up, she's adorable and seeing her break character to growl at the guys is great
Children: *are missing, being eaten by a witch*
DnD Party: *making fun of the witches name and laughing uproariously*
Do you ever get a flash of just how bad it is to be an NPC in these tabletop games? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This stuff is my favorite part of DnD and dropping real people into a fantasy world
“This is very serious-“
“YOUR NAME IS A VERY FUNNY NAME”
Demoralize the witch! She’s been taking herself seriously for too long
@@LucifersfursonaDeploy the bard they’re gonna make it the Grýla Comedy Roast
@@Lucifersfursona Vicious Mockery.
This happens to my DM all the time.
He has a recurring dreadnought NPC called Sir Osserick that I immediately renamed Sir Ostrich.
Much love from Iceland and this is the most fun I have seen with the name Grýla
The falcon shrieks at the end are killing me
I love that in this one shot practically nothing happened plotvise, but still it was pure fun.
“ITS NOT A GORILLA 👿👿”
The sudden tone change was a jump scare 😂
The way they gradually just smirk at each other after hearing "I hate to tell you this, but Grýla-" and instantly dying after Nikkie realizes the mistake she made cracks me up. 🤣
What unholy sound did Andy make in this
I love this. This is the exact DnD experience. Especially the "We're just gonna make it worse."
I know have the image of chuckles riding a gorilla. Most excellent.
This aged well considering Walking in a Witchlight Wonderland.
Dude Andy's laugh makes my knees weak EVERYTIME I hear it
This is why you say these names out loud before the session starts. That’s how you end up with an elf named Faless.
Son of Bellendir and Vulvanna
Why does his laugh remind me of Archimedes from Sword in the Stone laughing at Merlin when the plane dive bombs?
I’m sorry the PLANE?
OH MY GOD YOURE RIGHT
@@Lucifersfursona "flying machine"?
That dude has a very interesting scream-laugh. 🤣
It's the gm shaking her head and holding it knowing it's gonna be a long night that does it for me.

god bless whoever edits these shorts. the snappy zooms are perfectly timed and bring so much to the comedic timing.

I mean, if I was the DM... its Gryla Gorilla time.
The sheer antics these people get into the contagious laughter they bring, I love every drop of it
This gives off big "Clayton teaching Tarzan" vibes 🤣🤣🤣
Gryla joins the honored halls of “NPCs with names your players can’t take seriously” along side Purvon Sol and Boyland.
i heard they took over a kingdom and changed the currencies to be named after them, the heroes have a bounty on their heads now too , One Gryllian gold pieces.
They find gryla and its just an actual gorilla
I cracked up laughing at the antics of you guys! XD
Good God yall are too damn funny 😭😭
God i love these moments.
That laugh at the end sounds so much like El Resitas omfg I was DYING
It's moments like these that I live for in TTRPGs
The animation makes this so much better
The way Mikey laughs from the Grýla tactics joke is what does it for me
As soon as they was going to say gryla everyone locked in ready fr
Torbek is having heart palpitations, someone get this man some help
Whatever’s on the loose those kids aught to be scared
This looks so fun! I wish I had I group of friends to play dnd with :(
There’s something I love about Torbek losing his fucking mind at the end. He’s summoning the inner Mace.😂
As a DM, I feel this pain.
THERES A WILD GORILLA ON THE LOOSE?
I love watching these when they pop up, always makes me smile and chuckle
I've watched this so many times, I have both the words and mannerisms memorized.
I love this campaign so much
The devil my necromancer has summoned and is gonna romance is called Aluza...pronounced a-loser lmao
