The Fuplers: Thcrabble

The Fuplers play a game of Scrabble.
My Mom came up with the Scrabble idea (thanks Mom). I jumped right on it, especially since it meant I didn’t have to deal with food continuity. Of course, the game had its own challenges. I wanted “supine” to be in a specific place, along with the other word. But working backwards to create the entire board was surprisingly difficult. Who knew it was so hard to reverse-engineer a frickin’ Scrabble board?!
This one got featured on the front page of YouTube and reached 1 million views a couple months later.
Did you find “tressla”?

Matt, adding background music to the Fuplers would give it that professional edge, just a suggestion. well done

Matt…
Great videos. I have watched them all and Fuplers aside I think my favorite is the catch phrase one. “rat farts” was the phrase I tried to get to catch on. Needless to say it didn’t.

Hi Matt!
Just a quick word to tell you that your videos are VERY funny (and trust me, I’m quite picky when it comes to humour). The small things that you don’t neglect and that you emphacize are awesome. For example : in “I love Klondikes”, when Kevin says to his sister “you’re boring” and she replies very quickly in a “baby” manner “you’re boring”. That’s super Tressla!
Besides, I’m an English teacher in my smelly country (yes, I’m French, but please, don’t hold it against me…) and I think your videos would provide an excellent school material (you don’t talk to fast for my poor learners… the humour is GREAT without being vulgar or rude and there’s a real depth to the characters). If you don’t see any problem with me studying in class some of the things you do on video, I’ll send you (if you give me your email address) the lessonsheets.
Once again, Bravo ! And thank you for the great abs workout !
Have a nice day.
Julien.

Hey Matt,
I instantly became a huge fan of your Fuplers videos. Like Julien (who commented above me) I agree that it is so refreshing to find such a great dose of humor in a format that isn’t crude or vulgar. I always took the opinion that if someone has to be vulgar to get laughs then they aren’t really funny. You, my friend, are genuinely GENUINELY funny.
You have that type of delivery that no matter what you do, it’s great!
Keep up the great work!

This has got to be your best video yet. Your portrayal of the little girl, Linsay is hillarious, not to mention the innocent responses by Mom. Keep’m coming.

Your editing is terrific. I really love this one. You are a very funny boy. Also uncanny resemblence to my family. :-/ I crack up at Lindsey’s face every time the dad swipes the dictionary, and it just doesn’t get old watching the entire family’s reaction to her special word. Moments like this are all too real for all of us.
When I was a kid, my mom had to chase my sister up and down drugstore aisles trying to clamp her hand over her mouth because she was running shouting out “T” “R” “O” “J” “A” “N” “S” and doing jumps while waving boxes of condoms over her head. The local football team was the Trojans and she really really wanted to be on the cheerleading squad.
You truly captured a piece a piece of this fond memory in your Thcrabble video.
I LOVE IT!!!

And Gretchen brought up my own fond memory of moving the boxes of Anusol around. I remember it like yesterday.
Actually, it was yesterday. (It’s their fault for naming it like that. I used to do the same with Vagistat. I probably killed their sales so much that they dropped the product. Sorry, ladies.)

Good jod man, comdey isn’t easy its a gift, like how i keep trying to tell the rents.:) Any way about old and new Catch Phrases, I remember when my unckel was like 18 which i think was like 1999 after he would eat anything, he’d turn to his mum and say “thanks mum, that was POO” as too say, that was the shit. but i guess without the swearing. :)Sic if i even now how it spell it is like ‘NOT’ used alot today. like “Dude your mums hot………. NOT. No but seriously is your mum seeing anyone. oh right ya dad cool” And this old guy i ran into once in a old record store was talking about Miles Davis and pretty much said, “Ace” to like everything i;d say. lol anyway keep up the good work…..

This one and “Graythe” are tied as my favorite Fuplers. :) :) :) :)
(Any other Scrabble nerds out there who deduced that Lindsey could actually get a Bingo by playing “SHEPHERD” instead of “HERPES”? LoL.)
Love your work, Matt.
Brilliant brilliant brilliant!
