Black Light Standup Shtick on Grave Mood Rings

- A surrealist, dadaistic, even post-contemplationist spoof of slow-moving Gothic soap operas of the 1970s: it's Grave Mood Rings, a weird intersection in the universe of Prof. Oddfellow's Penetralia.

As Barry waxed lyrical. ' Don't go to near, but look at it from my angle ', sound advice indeed
Whether Barry waxed lyrical or waned lyrical (nyuk nyuk), you pulled out a good phrase from a song that otherwise leaves me lost for words. 🤪 I wonder how many listeners would consider that one a "desert island disc." 😜
Funny...love the black light on the vampire teeth! Janie and I were laughing the entire time
Yay! Thank you so much -- we're honored!
They put the light in black light!!!❤
Haha -- thank you!
Lol these jokes are great. They didn't all end up in the Bermuda Triangle at least 😂
Thank you so much, Ylecas! Really happy you liked my jokes!
@@ProfessorOddfellow They were really well thought out. Thank you for the laugh!
Uplifting each other, levitating with levity ... I know this is your mission, too. 😻
@@ProfessorOddfellow We're definitely on similar wavelengths! Also, we forgot to mention the cut to the vampire's reaction in the middle of the video was priceless. 🤣
Thank you! I personally think those reaction moments really make the whole video. 👻 So glad that you appreciated them!
The Bermuda Triangle! One of the horrors of my childhood. Hahahahaha!
▲ Same! ▼
That and quick sand. I was convinced it was an everyday concern!
Yes, quicksand! Same!
Also, Wincia Mae probably doesn’t mind cleaning up her own donut crumbs, but does she mind if the Count or the Doctor just rub donut crumbs from their hands, letting them fall on furniture or the floor?
I understand that what distresses Wincia Mae more than the mere presence of haunted donut crumbs is what they do to the surfaces.
The doughnut crumbs and powdered sugars turn every surface into a glorified mood ring, and Wincia Mae feels anxious when, for example, she needs to fluff a throw pillow whose new coloration suggests it might throw itself at her.
This was too short! I wanted more! And what is the mystery as to why nobody has disappeared into the Bermuda Triangle in years!
Thanks, Betsy! As to why the Bermuda Triangle has been so quiet, perhaps it moved to Mexico (as we see here): www.oneletterwords.com/weblog/?id=51267
You're going to make me buy a Grave Mood Ring t-shirt, aren't you?
Haha -- thank you! What exactly would you like to see on one? I haven't designed one, but I'd give it a go. Tell me your ideal design, if you would.
@@ProfessorOddfellow I trust your creativity more than mine, but I do like the "does no one get lost in the Bermuda Triangle anymore" like compelling. But then, I grew up watching In Search Of. Not sure what the kids will think.
Check the Threadless link in the video description. And try the BONUS15 discount. And thank you!
I also got it onto the Zazzle collection (which is a bit different from the Threadless stuff).
@@ProfessorOddfellow Obtained. Keep fighting the weird fight, Prof.
I'm green with envy over your black light, but feeling blue about it, not seeing red.
Now that you're living like bats, do you hang from the rafters, the belfry with your Ouija Bat, a shower curtain rod, a railing, a valet rail in the cloakroom, carpenter Gothic gingerbread, a windowsill, a verandah, or a bookshelf?
I'll bet drachmas to doughnuts it's a bookshelf. It's a bookshelf, isn't it? Of *course* you'd hang from a bookshelf.
If I answered Gothic gingerbread, I'd be telling a beautiful lie. It's a bookshelf for sure!
@@ProfessorOddfellow Two sets of carpenter Gothic bookcases comin' right up!
{One for each of us, natch.}
Yay! Thank you! 🧛🏻♂️
Wait! Two things in one?
Haha -- yes! I was like, "Why can't it be both?" 🤪
I’m pleased to learn that there are stores in the Bermuda Triangle. Or does Professor Oddfellow go shopping nearby in Florida and/or The Bahamas?
Great guesses, Ken! But the eerie truth is that shopping within the Bermuda Triangle operates according to surprise deals courtesy of lost cargo planes.
It's just you! NOT!!!!!
Yeah, so many of us seem lost in the Bermuda Triangle, eh?
I like your editing style, nice one... do you do it by yourself? For me it's hard to do this kind of things, it's nearly 23 years ago I done this stuff... with different technology.... ^^
😃
We do all aspects of the production ourselves (just two of us). It sure isn't easy ... we spend 3 to 4 hours per one minute of completed video.
@@ProfessorOddfellow yeah... thats also my experience.... when you want to do it good :) ... nice that you take so much care of this....
Metric-conversion question: How much is that in vherevithals? [NOTE: This is a callforward to a future episode.]
Hahaha -- and we can't wait for that episode to debut!
Does the Count enjoy anything?
That's a good point: we need to see him enjoy himself. Meanwhile, he does get a laugh out of flubbing his lines: czcams.com/video/-KP98w-SRY0/video.html
And he seems to be in a very Un-Grave Mood here! czcams.com/video/EEyQsTvjx1g/video.html
Jonathan, that's a great example of Vike letting his hair down, so to speak. 🧛🏻♂️
The Viscount looks like he needs a sense of humor transplant, but as a vampire, I suppose he does not care for ba*t* jokes.
*d/t*
Just kiddin', the bat jokes aren't bad jokes. They are, however, very shticky, like the crumbs from the haunted don't-nots.
I suppose one day I will punt a pun over the line, but what a way to go.
You're the n+1nd (or is it n+1rd?) person to note the Viscount being humor-challenged. I think the only time we've seen him laugh is at a line of dialogue he knows is coming up, or at flubbing a line. Could it be that we've simply not seen him encounter anything else he finds funny? It seems clear that he doesn't care for Dr. Macaulovich's wordplays, and he acts as though Prof. Oddfellow were from a different universe. I'd like to see the Viscount really let his pony tail down and go into fits of uncontrollable laughter over something.
@@ProfessorOddfellow Well, write on, dear fellow, right one. You are, after all, the lead writer and the showrunner (I think?). You do what you do so well, One-Word shipper of the semi-mighty Octothorpe.
On the mountaintop of things, we produce, direct, act in, edit, and write some of the scripts, and closer to sea-level, Jonathan Caws-Elwitt (the lead writer) has so far written 19 additional scripts that are yet-to-be filmed. Here's the paradox: it would reasonably seem as though I could choose to write a script in which the Viscount doubles over in laughter ... and maybe I can, yet maybe I can't, because these characters have taken on lives of their own, and then there's the whole issue of working with one's Muse. Even as a script writer, I mostly feel somehow along for the ride and not at the wheel. Semi-mighty Octothorpe, empower me!
@@ProfessorOddfellow Did not know these things about Grave Mood Rings. Must need add them to the Wiki. The one undead in my head.
Okay, Jonathan Caws-Elwitt's Meandering Moustache would be fun to see in some variation, like wandering vampire fangs, on Grave Mood Rings. Or one of the other Oddfellow shows. P.S. I notice you didn't deny being the show runner. Just, please, don't run it over a cliff, we don't want these delightful bits of comedy, music, parody, and other oddities to go away.
The Grave Mood Rings wiki at Fandom vanished on us, but we appealed and it was somehow reinstated. It's difficult to keep it updated (for want of being organized, and for want of their interface to be intuitive).
