Answering google's most searched questions of 2019..

So the Internet is a big place. There's a lot of people on it, a lot of curious people, things they want to do, stuff they want to learn, and that's great. And all, you know, it's always good to learn things. You should never stop learning. Search engines are great for figuring things out.

Some people ask really deep and thought-provoking questions, like, "What is the meaning of life?" And you know, I answered that. Kind of. That's good. But there's some other questions that are, well, not so well. You know, there's no such thing as a bad question. So I'm gonna answer some of the most Google searches of 2019.

"What is a Fiske?" Overall, right? Baggy t-shirt, ripped shorts, this exact belt, Hydro Flask, Birkenstocks, or the chunky Fila socks. Saturated Instagram picture. There you go.

"What is in the EBU?" Just open up TikTok and scroll literally once, and you'll find it.

"What is Disney Plus?" It's pretty much Netflix but for all the old Disney movies and even new shows. You want to watch Finding Nemo? They got it. You want to watch Toy Story? They got it. This isn't sponsored at all, but Disney, please sponsor me. You have so much money; it's disgust.

"What is a Mandalorian?" This dude with baby Yoda.

"What is keto?" Just watch Critical's video on the keto diet. It's basically keeping your carbs low, so no bread or pasta, pizza or anything like that—keeping your protein intake moderate, not too much, not too little, and keeping your fats high. They're gonna be your main food source. A diet like this essentially converts your body from using glucose or carbs as your body's main energy source and swaps it over to using fat instead. People mainly do this to lose weight.

"What is intermittent fasting?" Basically starving yourself for the majority of the day and fitting all of your calories within a very small time period. Sometimes people even go without eating for multiple days in a week by choice to save money and not spend it. I would tell you to start making coffee at home instead of eating out or to start cooking your meals instead of buying McDonald's six days a week. But everyone is different and some people can't live without their daily Big Mac.

First, start with things the least important to you but are still costing you money and try to slowly phase them out. I would recommend just tracking your money for a month and seeing where it's all going.

"How to make money online?" Whatever you do, do not start a YouTube channel. Things are fine and dandy and wonderful, and you upload a video that you think is going to do really well, and then you get hit with the big yellow [Music]. No, but really, please keep watching my videos; you're literally paying my rent. Build a brand around something you enjoy, and the money will come to you. Just know how to use social media, and you should be set.

"What is a Boomer?" Only a Boomer would be googling this one.

"Will I die?" A Boomer probably googled this one anyway. You get about 79 years on this planet called Earth, so do the math yourself.

Did you know sharks kill about 40 people a year? It's kind of shocking, but then you realize that humans kill about 110 million sharks a year, and then everything seems normal again.

"Who is Keanu Reeves?" Do yo, are they serious? Do I have to answer this? A Matrix 4 and John Wick 4 released on the same day, May 21st, 2020.

Speaking of movies, "What does Avengers endgame?" Okay, this movie was sick. Avengers Endgame is now the highest-grossing film of all time! In just five days after releasing, the film had already brought in over 1 billion dollars in revenue. In three weeks, it had made over two and a half billion.

"How do you get rid of hiccups?" A lot of times, hiccups seem to start and stop for no reason at all. Usually, it's because you're eating too fast or taking a certain medicine. They usually go away pretty fast, but sometimes they don't. An American man named Charles Osbourne had hiccups for over 68 years. He was estimated to have hiccups over 430 million times in a row. I lose my mind after having them for like 20 minutes, so living an entire life with them is personally a life not worth living.

Hiccups are pretty much just your diaphragm spazzing out. If you don't know what your diaphragm is, it's pretty much necessary if you want to, like, breathe or live, and so on. Increasing the CO2 in your body is enough to usually trick your nervous system into ensuring that your body is doing its job. Holding your breath is usually your best bet; less breathing equals less oxygen, which equals more CO2. This is most of the time will get your diaphragm to chill out, and you can continue on with your day.

"Where is Area 51?" Area 51 is a top-secret government base in the middle of Nevada. I was gonna make a video about it a while back. It's top secret, and as with top-secret things, there's not much about it that isn't either completely fake or extremely hard to believe. So I kind of scrapped that.

In September, over 2 million people planned to storm the base and find them aliens. In the end, though, like 200 people showed up. Maybe we'll try again next year.

Alright, speed round. Musicians are always one of the most searched things every year.

"Where's R. Kelly?" In jail.

"Where's 6ix9ine?" Also in jail.

"Where's 21 Savage from?" Boom.

"Where is A$AP Rocky?" Now he's back home.

"Now who's Billy?" I wish I don't know, but they sound like a bad guy.

"Who are the Washington Nationals?" They're a Major League Baseball team based in Washington, D.C., which also happens to be where I live, and they're pretty much one of the few cool things we have. Other things in D.C. kind of give us a bad rep.

"What is the weather outside today?" Well, in D.C. it's rainy, dark, and miserable.

"Wait, actually, what time is sunset?" 4:53 p.m. Where I'm at, I barely see the sun at this point.

"What is impeachment?" Impeachment is essentially removing someone from a position of power. In almost every case that gets attention, it's the president of the United States. Only three times in history have presidents been impeached: Nixon doesn't completely count, Andrew Johnson in 1868, Bill Clinton in 1998, and Donald Trump just a week ago. Now, no one has ever been completely removed from office due to impeachment, at least without resigning on their own. What's pretty cool and also sucks that we're living in a time where this is happening again.

"What is Brexit?" In June 2016, there was a vote for the United Kingdom to leave the European Union. In the end, 52 percent voted to leave. Here we are, three years later, and as of right now, it's scheduled to officially happen on January 31st, 2020. I guess we'll have to wait to see what happens. There's a lot of issues coming from people not voting on things they stand for.

"How to register to vote?" A very good question if you're in the U.S., which I'm just going to assume that most people googling this are. The easiest of which is to go to usa.gov, click this blue button, and you'll get instructions from there. If you're in the UK, head to gov.uk and you'll find it on the front page.

"Should I cut my hair?" Only if you won't regret it. If nobody else will tell you, I will. Bangs aren't for everyone, but I'm wishing you good luck.

"Should I shave my head?" No, you'll look like an egg.

"Actually, how to make scrambled eggs?" Luckily, I make these every morning, so I got you. Take a couple eggs; any less than four is pathetic. Crack all of them into a bowl, whisk them. I'm gonna use a fork because, well, I've always done that. Put them in a pan, play with them a little bit, and there you go.

Now, to boil eggs: boil water, put eggs in the water, and wait 12 minutes.

"Why is the sky blue?" When the weather isn't terrible, the sky is an ocean blue that seems unending. You can thank Rayleigh scattering for that. Humans only see a small range of colors we refer to as ROYGBIV. The sun is flying through the universe and consistently emitting light. As light enters our atmosphere, it bounces off tiny particles that surround the entire planet, mostly oxygen and nitrogen.

The color blue has a shorter wavelength than the color red, and considering these particles are, well, tiny, it's much easier for blue, the shorter wavelength of light, to reflect and bounce off of these particles, which is why the sky is blue.

"How to solve a Rubik's Cube?" Like this [Music].

"I'll hack a Facebook account." Dark web.

"How do you pineapple?" Just do it.

"How many calories a day should I eat?" Well, that depends. Do you want to gain or lose weight?

"How to gain weight?" Consistently eat more than your caloric maintenance.

"How to lose weight?" Essentially eat less than your caloric maintenance. It's obviously not that simple for everyone, myself included. I'd recommend finding a nutritionist. It works pretty well depending on your activity levels throughout the day, depending on your job or other activities you partake in, depending on whether you're biologically male or female. It just depends a lot.

"Where is the hurricane?" You just had Ivan.

"How many countries are there?" According to the United Nations, it's 195 officially, but some countries recognize certain countries while other countries don't.

"What song is this?" Shazam. If it doesn't work, Google the lyrics. If it's not on there, chances are it's in the depth of SoundCloud. Good luck finding it.

"How many days until Christmas?" 363.

"Now, how to love yourself?" I could be generic and say try things or hang out with friends or put yourself out there or whatever, but you've already heard that a million times before. It's hard to hang out with friends if you don't have any. It's equally just as hard to try new things when you struggle to leave your own home.

Just try to find small things you enjoy doing, even though there might not be any right now. Even if it's a small thing like cleaning or playing with a dog or not throwing all my ranked games, taking these baby steps will help start you in the right direction.

Are you going to wake up the next morning loving every single fiber of your being? Definitely not. Will it be better than the day before? Hopefully.

Take all of these small things and put them together, and you will have your own unique persona, one that hopefully you can love.

But what even is love? Love is typically portrayed with hearts and chocolates and crazy acts that you wouldn't do for anyone in the world unless you were in love with them. But love is all in your brain.

Love gives off the same effects as a brain on cocaine, by the way, if you were wondering.

"How long does cocaine stay in your system?" It's about two to four days or months if you work on Wall Street or making YouTube videos.

I just said to look up the effects of cocaine and then compare them against the feelings of love; they're pretty much the same. When you're in love with someone, whether it's the cute Starbucks cashier you saw this morning or the girl that you thought was waving at you so you wave back when in reality she was waving at someone behind you, so you just continue on with your day like nothing happened, even though you're a little bit sad.

Okay, anyway, adrenaline, norepinephrine, and dopamine flood your brain when you see or interact with someone you're in love with, and this is what makes you all happy and giddy at the scientific level, and that's about it.

But your personal affairs with love are going to be very, very different and very unique in their own ways. In the same way, everyone's life is really different but very much the same. We all lead different lives with different friends, family, jobs, hobbies, and we all have different goals in mind. Some of us will be billionaires, some of us are gonna die tomorrow, and some of us will change the world and venture to live on other planets.

Despite how crazy life might be and can get, despite the fact that almost any answer you could ever want is on Google right now, at the end of the day, millions of people every year would rather Google "Why is my poop green?" And I really can't answer that one.
