I met a most peculiar man today

Well, it looks like it's time to eat skittles and watch Thor: The Dark World

I meet a peculiar man the other day. He just stood by the sidewalk so I approached him calmly and mugged him. I used his money and bought tickets to see Thor the dark world. 10/10 would do again

This feels like it was written by an AI in all the right ways.

"He will never be as good as Thor: the dark world" is the burn of the century.

Fun fact: drax was in thor: the dark world. But he was standing so still, we couldnt spot him

This is exactly how a vampire would behave in the modern era

Honestly calling someone Thor: The Dark World is possibly the harshest roast you can deliver.
"Hey, watch your step, pal. You don't wanna cross me."
"Or what, Thor: The Dark World?"
He collapses, clutching his heart. Such a roast should not be delivered lightly. An ambulance arrives, but it's too late. His eyes roll into the back of him head, as you put your hood on and walk away. Someone tries to stop you, but you mutter *"Thor: The Dark World"* under your breath. They fall to the ground behind you, dead almost instantly. You get on a bus, and head for the white house. The world shall know your name.

Either the student is a MASTER in the mystic arts, or the “teacher” is insane
Seeing as how his teacher enjoys Thor: The Dark world so much, I’m willing to bet it’s the second option

ngl sitting on a rock doing nothing seems really good rn

The best part is that before Thor: The Dark World was cited, I didn't remember its existence.

I was trying to figure out what animal the narrator was, went from cat to various flying insects, personifying an animal that acted around someone
Since there’s no image to go with it, I guess it’s as valid an interpretation as any and I’ll keep it

I got the notification for this video while watching Thor: The Dark World and now I’m feeling paranoid. Like no joke, I feel terrified now. Thank you.

Did he just try to teach a lizard person the ways of Thor: The Dark World?

The fact that they met this man 'today' implies that all this happened in just one day. Or maybe its just that space-time continuum still remains a mistery to me.

I meet a peculiar man that other day. I approach him with outmost curiosity and said “ why are you carrying a tungsten cube?” , he gladly replied “it cured my motality and bring happiness to my life”, after hearing that I quickly walk away and leave so as the peculiar guy will have a quality time with his peculiar tungsten cube.

I too wish to be taught by the Harbinger of the Ferns and Vanquisher of the evil Not-Ferns.

Feckin' love Joel Haver's stuff

Thank you. I’ve never had a comment of mine read by such a fancy voice.

i'm a bit sad that nobody's getting that this is a reference to Joel Haver

Me too he had like some kind of mask with a smile and started singing a song about it

After watching this spectacular video, as well as the original video by Joel Haver, I realize that they both show the same story, but two different perspectives, providing a unique and satisfying experience for the watcher. Not unlike the movie Thor: the dark world

Do not ask me to elaborate but I thought that the "peculiar man" was a frog

Yoo I have one of those students too! She follows me everywhere and faces the opposite way of the sun, like a vampire. Maybe 2d shapes don’t like sunlight? She also kinda fades at night, as if she was blending into the background. I have taught my student well, and she has mastered the art of hide and seek. Although it is quite unfair playing hide and seek with your shadow.

The crossover we didn't know we needed

oh no this sounds like a villain origin story.

To anyone that's really confused, this is the other perspective of Joel Haver's "I met a peculiar man today". It is recommended to watch Joel's video before or after to get the image of the man's perspective.

Wait, is this an opposite perspectives of that Joel Harver video? This video was made to be enjoyed by a very small pool of people and i have to say, I am glad that I am on it

God, this is so good. One of my favorite Joel Haver sketches

I've seen Thor: The Dark World, but I can't remember anything from it. It has become a dark void in my mind, teasing me with profound wisdom that is just barely out of reach.

I’ve been so traumatized playing Curse of Strahd. My dm uses Moonlight Sonata as Strahd’s theme so he plays it whenever he appears. I had such a violent and traumatic reaction to starting this video and hearing it that I haven’t actually continued watching and I don’t think I have it in me to do so.

“Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...”

I've been putting off watching Thor: Dark World for 2 days now, I've seen the intro, everything is ready to go, i've simply been procrastinating
I feel personaly attached.

Fun fact: In Germany (and probably other German speaking countries) "Thor: The Dark World" was called "Thor - The Dark Kingdom"

My audio broke during this. Really added to the feeling of revealing secrets no mortal man should hear

Sometimes I lay awake at night, mind wracked with conflict, not unlike the character Thor from the movie Thor: the dark world

I love how this implies the entirety of the Thor: The Dark World movie is not only integral to achieving enlightenment, but also a student of the OP

lmfao i love both perspectives.
Both Master and Student are as good as Thor: the dark world

If you had worn the right cape, you could've taken him to see Thor: The Dark World and maybe he could've grasped your teachings.
Honestly, as the teacher, this failure is on you.

If y’all don’t get the reference, this is an alternate perspective of “I met a most peculiar man today” by Joel Haver

This is like someone writing a story , forgetting what he was writing about , and writing what was on his mind

After spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on a Film History PhD, it can be a little difficult finding students or even a use for the degree.

At first i was like "wow, this sounds really familiar" then i realized that this is a script from a Joel Haver's video

I wish that one day, I too, can be as good as Thor: The Dark World

The crossover I never knew I wanted.

Came here for laughs
Got enlightenment instead

Thor: The Dark World was the first time I didn't see a marvel movie

I thought it was s statue at first, the "student"

Feels like a Joel Haver film. The thumbnail looked like it
Edit: It is! It's the POV of the peculiar man in the Joel Haver video of the same name. Brilliant

Damn, that was deep. With a review like that I guess I now absolutely have to watch Thor: The Dark World

There was a tall man standing in the park the other day. I started a lively conversation with him, and he even lasted through it all without as much as a smirk or a laugh. What a nice guy, I told him to meet up at the same spot next week.
Now, everybody keeps telling me that he's just a statue, but I keep telling people that not taking my schizophrenia pills makes me a happier person, and whether they refuse to believe so is not my concern.

the student wanted to be better than Thor: The Dark World, hence he followed the teacher _everywhere_ , and _followed every move the teacher made_ .
*_just like how the teacher observed and examined his "not so best" student_*

Hey Joel Haver reference
This is beautiful btw

Wait till Joel Haver sees this

just realize that that was his shaow

These longer format videos are amazing.

the only thing i remember is the spinning truck and how it was actually held up by wires

Every druid have to watch Thor:The dark world
That's a tradition

that's deep, man. almost as deep as the story of Thor: The Dark World

This isn't just a shitpost. This is an alternate perspective of a masterpiece by the almighty Haver of Joels

This is just the script to the Joel Haver Video with exactly the same title. I love it.

Don't mind me just boosting the algorithm.

I once met a man in the Dark World. His name was Thor.

I was thinking "wow this is exactly like that Joel Haver video" and then you mentioned Thor: The Dark World and that confirmed it haha
Worlds collide!

I met a most peculiar man today. I was sitting on a rock, minding my own business when he approached me. He asked me if I had ever eaten skittles. I said yes. He then flapped really hard, but couldn't fly; his mom refused to buy him the cape with the right fibers. He insisted if you have titanium alloy fibers, you can fly like they did in the movie Thor: The Dark World.
He perched on a rock. This is what he said: "If you perch long enough, strong enough, hard enough, you will meld into the shadows." For over an hour, we played a game. He'd run, he'd hide, I'd spot him, he'd get upset. Run, hide, spot upset. Run. Hide. Spot. Upset.
Certain trees are his God. Certain plants are ferns. Others are not. This was a bad thing. It was at this point I called my family. I'd be missing dinner tonight; whatever this was, I was going to see it through. He led me into the woods. This was his sanctum. In his sanctum, the space-time continuum breaks down and doesn't solve, just like in the movie Thor: The Dark World. He then yelled at a tree. I had a feeling I wasn't supposed to see this.
Then, without explanation, I was dismissed. Did I scare him? Did he scare me? Did I scare myself?
In bed, I am haunted by visions. He seems alone. Terribly alone. Idling in my car, I stare at him, my foot hovering just above the gas. Always hovering, with such potential. I can't sleep. I am wrought with conflict. Not unlike the character of Thor in the movie Thor: The Dark World.

The piano music is perfect for this tale of disappointment and betrayal but it's score will never match Thor: The Dark World's so I'm not sure why the composer even bothered.

As every teacher knows, and many student forget after being released from their Entrallment
‘A man’s gotta know his limitations, especially when it comes to Thor: A Dark World’

I can only see the Narrator as some Raven's inner monologue, and the implications it has watched 'Thor; the Dark world'

I imagine it's just a cricket following a dude on a hike.

I just got that this is a play on a Joe Haver sketch

I have no clue what the fuck is going on in this short story but I love it. 10/10

Can't wait to binge every video on this channel now

Finally… we’ve seen the other side of Joel Haver video and now I know who the real villain is

This video evoked such specific emotions within me. I feel a great urge to make up a story based on this

I’ve watched your videos for a bit now but this one made me subscribe

I expected an image to show up at the end to make this all make sense but it never came

I was totally expecting it to twist into him being a lizard so, predicting it, all I could imagine him as was a lizard.
And I think that made it better.

I kept waiting for the twist that would make it all make sense.

This is the perfect pairing to the Joel Haver video.

I once tried to teach the squirrels about the Quantum Dimension of the Breads and the Devastating Foods of Not-Breads, yet alas they did not seem to even want to learn at all as they fled from me and watched from afar. Therefore I trapped one in between my hands, clenching as we went to the cinema to watch Thor: The Dark Lord. Finally then, it would learn something good.

Some poor Sleeper got found by a Thyrsus, poor thing.

Thought it was a dog until he mentioned the car, didn’t stop me from imagining a dog driving a car.

Joel Haver truly has one of the greatest minds of our time

This is such a specific reference that it took me a while to realise what this video is about

this is the best way to promote a movie

Such a story in such a short amount of time. Bravo.

Nice that the story from Joel Haver is getting told from the other POV.

This was the best video I've seen today.

*hits my knee*
the brain:

I’ve always loved Moonlight Sonata, it’s one of the few classical songs I know by name, it always makes me happy when people use it :)

This is literally the other perspective of that Joel Harver video lol

I was waiting for the joke reveal and for everything to make sense but it didn't happen and now I am left confused

Genuinely engaging short story

I love your voice, your tone, your accent. I could sleep like a baby from listening to you.😊

I genuinely thought this was one of those inspirational videos that had a poem and good cinematography to it. Was pleasantly surprised to see how wrong I was

I was tryna think where I’d heard this before. It’s the other perspective from the Joel Haver video of the same name. I highly recommend it

I knew where this was going immediately and I love it

This whole time I just kept wondering if the student was really the person's shadow

"Those evil not ferns"

At first I thought the peculiar man would turn out to be the statue of the thinker and now I'm mildly disappointed.
