You never know how you’re going to get a sign from a loved one who has passed, my son had a business called a little bit of everything

3:22 I recently read that this is kind of a common thing among neurodivergent folks. We don't do it as a "it's all about me" thing but because we're trying to relate to people. Like "oh that thing happened to you? Well this similar thing happened to me. I understand and can relate to you about this"

My husband and I were engaged for nine days. We had a non-denominational chapel near our house, with flowers, a cake and a reception. He took half a day off of work. We renewed our vows after we were married for ten years. It was ridiculously fun.

I frickin love you talking to yourself as the cameraman. It is hilarious!

I love how chaotic this video is because it is so reminiscent of my continuous thoughts. 😂😂😂

Three things: 1. I’m glad you’re using your journal 2. Your curly hair looks fab! 3. I love how easily you went into that grocery store. I know maybe it wasn’t easy on the inside but you seemed really relaxed and that’s awesome

Holy crap, I have ALWAYS wondered if we see colors the same as others! Not everyone tastes things the same, or have the same sense of smell. I love that I'm not the only person who wonders about this!

Oh my heck, the best part of this whole video is the "not a pocket" segment - your facial expressions are hysterical!! (I'm still laughing about "good luck getting those to lay flat after you wash it!" *whap, whap* 🤣🤣🤣)

8:03 I cannot begin to express how let down I am by Final Cut Pro for fading half of those subtitles out too early. It’s bothering me so much. 💀😂

This format makes my eyes and earballs very happy.

THEY CAN I SWEAR PLANTS CAN HEAR

0:54 I'm the kid that took my glasses off, handed them to other kids and said "Look how blind I am!", and reveled in the "Woah!" reactions. In fact, I'm not sure even in my late 30s that I've entirely stopped.

I used to think that flowers screamed when you picked them, so my boyfriend at the time bought me a potted rose bush for Valentine's Day. (It was very sweet. He was... not. The plant lasted longer than the relationship.)

10:32 so accurate! Found my father’s diary from when he was a teen and wow did he have some dark days. Random suggestion from a meme I once saw: Always designate someone you trust to delete your browsing history when you die.

I’ve been following you since the taco guy story and I have to say, I really love your long form videos. You’re a great story teller regardless, but I just feel like we’re hanging out and spending the day together with these videos. Also, lately I’ve been rolling my sleeves back and every time I think to myself “it’s the Elyse Myers double roll” and immediately feel cool 😂

I wholeheartedly love that you wrote down all the thoughts that bothered you and then got them off your chest like this, that feels like it would absolutely scratch a good itch in my brain 👍👍

Yes, THE POCKETS! Thanks for bringing it up to public knowledge

Elyse I truly loved this video. It just feels so good. The pacing, the blend of vlog and sketch content, the grounding of the random notebook thoughts… seriously *chef’s kiss* Also don’t think we didn’t notice that you went to the store and let the vibes guide you. We did. So proud. (Yes we’re going to celebrate the win and not fixate on the flashing situation because we need wins.)

Hahaha hilarious and my fave is you ending it with “have a good day!” Bc that’s what our toddler says to us…especially when she’s having a tantrum. “I’m mad, I’m walking away, have a good day!!” 😂😂😂

The pocket bit 🤣🤣 when you act opposite yourself, it's always so good, it's the best :) The foil 'glasses' !! I love your videos so much, thank you :)

Why is no one talking about the incredible humor in the pocket bit 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

BRO how did you just moved on from that incident in the parking lot and barely none of the comments said anything! That’s so traumatizing I saw in another comment you said this wasn’t the first time that’s happened in a parking lot?! This is why I don’t like to go out people are absolutely crazy and creepy 🤮 I’m so sorry that happened to you but I don’t know how you kept the video going! Also love this style of video it was very entertaining with the little clips describing your ideas or way of doing things bravo!

i've been living alone in the mountains for over 4 years now and haven't had friends close in so long .. you just feel like a best friend

I've always thought the same thing about colours and vision. Same with sound: Do you hear what I hear? Do you see what I see? Great lyrics for a song. Oh, wait, it's already been done.🙃

Absolutely love the pocket presentation!

I agree. Plants absolutely can hear us because when a random gust of wind comes and makes their leaves shake..It’s not wind it’s them hearing us talk and their signal for us to shutup

I recently attempted to consume all of your content on here and I have to tell you how comforting it has been. Especially when you talked about wanting your mental health to be at a place where you can show up for your child. As a chronically ill person, i carry a lot of shame that i have to miss out on things. But my kiddo is a teen now and really has so much empathy and reminds me to take care of myself. They feel love from us in so many ways that it's ok that we have limitations. Anyway, you make me feel less alone in the world. And you make me laugh. So thank you. ❤

OhmyGOD- why are you seriously the most relatable human being on the planet😂 (No pressure btw…) The pocket bit made me CRY🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 God, I needed that. Thank you for your service, ma’am🤝😂

Old men: We're not always sending our best. Apologies, ma'am.

A little bit of everything is such a fun title.

watching your videos gives me the coziest vibes like i'm hanging out with a good friend whom i feel comfortable with (not in a parasocial way just a nice vibes way)

The falling in love segment…😭 I’ve been feeling this and it didn’t register until I heard you say it. I’ve been married 10 years and 4 babies later and I was so consumed with knowing if we’d ever get here, that I missed the falling in love part. 😢

Thanks for a funny, insightful episode! Property taxes support schools and town services; sales taxes often support major highway maintenance/repair. Just remind yourself when you think about it that we want good schools & fire & police and roads in good repair.

That “relating stories back to yourself” thing is called anecdotal storytelling, and it is an autism and adhd symptom, along with being present in other neurodivergencies! It’s a sort of unique way of showing empathy. It’s not selfish, don’t worry. For some of us, it is just easier to hear something, relate it back to a personal experience as a way to explain that someone isn’t alone or to match your experience with others!

You are amazing. Truly. I find such comfort, humor and relatability in your long form content. I am either saying (out loud) “Same. Right! I know!” Or laughing. (Or tearing up.) You are such an incredible person. This makes me realize that there MUST be more people out there in the world just as quirky, curious, confused and unsure about life as I feel on the reg. And others that also notice the little things in life. ❤ Thank you for being you and for sharing yourself with us.

The color thing!!!!! I think about that all the time. It's so true... Like is the blue I see the same blue you see?? Does this really specific magenta color look exactly the same to you as it does to me??? How would we even find out??? Words wouldn't be sufficient enough because those are limited, and that would be hard to use words even, because if you try to describe it using another item/color, what if they don't see THAT color the same either??? I'm so glad I'm not the only one that thinks about this 😂

The pockets bit had me DYING. Gah your timing is *chefs kiss*

Zombie Apocalypse is not (supposed to be) an actual fear of zombies (I mean I guess for some?) but it's a way of saying "Are you prepared for a disaster" and the idea being if you were prepared to survive a zombie apocalypse you'd be prepared for things like actual likely disasters because you're prepared to live without power, without grocery stores, without city water, etc. But it's hard to get people to care about those actual things because they weirdly feel less likely. But if you make it a "fun" exercise, like zombies, then people are actually more likely to prepare actual emergency supplies.

Hello from IRELAND!!!! AND YES PLANTS CAN HEAR US!!!! 🇮🇪☘️

The jump from "I wish I had known when I was falling in love for the last time" to "I'm over my hair today" !!! WOMANHOOD!!

The pocket segment was the best!!! Loved the format. I definitely lol😊

I adore your videos, especially in this random form. It’s like having a convo with a totally likeminded, good friend without the awkward planning and actual social conventions. From pockets to crochet to taxes, you’re absolutely 100% “my people”…who I can wholeheartedly enjoy without having to “people”. In fact, your love of crochet is what plunged me hard back into the craft my great grandmother taught me years ago. Thank you! May you and your beautiful family be blessed with ever better things to come.

A lot of times, you/they aren't making every story about themselves, they are trying to say that they too have experienced that thing before and relate to what your saying. I do this too and didn't know it at first. I'm also on the spectrum.

Okay but you are THE funniest, most relatable person. And kudos to you for making me chuckle when nothing else has quite satisfied today. Thank you for your contributions!

I actually was nervous to get glasses for my astigmatism as an adult, and the ones I had for four years were hexagonal gold frames (not real gold, obviously). I was super nervous because they were so different, and kids got bullied with glasses also, but everywhere I went people loved them. Nobody asked to try them! So maybe that's the key, pick something super unique that they're too distracted to ask about trying them on bahaha

"Jean on jean is okay right?" Me *nods in canadian*

The pockets clip is like a SuperBowl commercial for pockets 😂😂

People do see colours differently 🙂 Cone cells or cones are photoreceptor cells in the retinas of vertebrates' eyes. They respond differently to light of different wavelengths, and the combination of their responses is responsible for color vision. Depending how many you have will vary what different shades you can see! 😃❤

I did that weird laugh cry thing throughout this whole video lol, thank you, I needed that. ❤

@7:44 SAME. I have embarrassed myself multiple times by accidentally reading aloud lines from the book because I forgot that I am IN A PUBLIC PLACE.

That fact about Taylor Swift putting random words in her lyrics, omg im so happy someone else feels like it😂❤ since English is not my mother language I used to think of it as a me kind of problem 😅 I feel relieved 😊

The breaking news pocket part made me laugh soooo much! Thank you ❤😂

Omg the love one hit so very very hard. At the time me and my husband got together we were both working two jobs and our lives were so rushed. I wish I took time to remember everything more. ❤

I absolutely have had adults pull the, "let me see how blind u r" and grab my glasses just to be like, "dayummm, u really are blind AF" like, no shit. Give em back. That shit happened when I was a kid and sadly, it still happens occasionally from "adults" 🙄 30 yr olds with the maturity of 3 yr olds.

This is the most relatable series of thoughts I’ve ever heard

I found this video so soothing. All of the statements you shared were amazing and for you to be so open is a gift to others, thank you for sharing!

I LOVE HARBOR HOUSE!! So many memories. I used to work up the street at Cannons. I feel like we maybe played viola together somewhere lol

Holy crap!!! I can't imagine living in your headspace for more than 5 minutes. That craziness that runs through your mind would exhaust me!! BUT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WATCHING YOU DO IT!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Hey Elyse! Just want to thank you for being so real. It is so refreshing and inspires me to be more authentically myself!

I had a friend find out he needed glasses by trying on mine in class, so that's a cool spin on it

As a plant, I CAN hear you!

This entire video made me incredibly happy. Thank you!

The part where you were acting out a book and then laughed at yourself was so real. I so often do something so completely genuinely and then I think about it and can't help but laugh at the goof that is me. But I find it so endearing when you did it. So even if I still laugh at myself, I hope I can do it with more confidence and understanding that I'm not alone in the weirdness

I think the pith usage is just onomatopoeia. When James Joyce needed a word to convey the sound of someone knocking on a door, he invented “tattarrattat.” Today, almost a hundred years after he coined it in his novel Ulysses, “tattarrattat” has become a legit word

I've had so many of these same thoughts and have not expressed them out loud...I have very recently thought that I would like to renew my vows just so I can redo all the things I didn't like about my wedding because I let other people talk me into things I didn't want.

Your videos feel like a manifestation of how having an adhd hyperfixation can feel, but in the best way possible. Or pleasant like when you see a penny on the sidewalk or are outside in nature. I enjoy your videos is what I’m trying to say.

I am so grateful for these vudeos, it feels like I am hanging out with someone who you are so comfortable with you just get to say whatever pops into your head and its so relaxing and comforting, so thank you!

That last blooper has me in tears!!! Oh my gosh, love you so much and miss you on the stupid social medias. Glad you're still sharing life with us here!

I love this. Also, thanks for the comment about falling in love, it's something I don't think most people think about. I also appreciate this yellow notebooked list cause I've got a whole list like this of Liz quips that sometimes turn into Facebook or what have you statuses. Some people therefore have called me quirky, it's all good. And I hope no one ever steals your glasses. - an adult, I think

I don't understand property taxes either! I live in Oklahoma and every year I have to pay property taxes on my appliances. Like my microwave, my washer and dryer, my refrigerator etc! Why!! I already bought them, I paid taxes on them when I bought them, so why do I still have to pay taxes on them!? Truthfully, I don't own a washer and dryer, nor a cook stove just so I don't have to pay taxes on them every year! Instead, I take what the taxes would've been and put that money into savings & some day I'm going to buy the oldest/cheapest washer and dryer from the 80's-90's so the taxes will be unbelievably cheap! But I'll forever just use a hot plate and my wood stove in the winter to cook! I probably won't buy a dryer bec in the summer I use my clothesline & in the winter I hang them inside to dry

The falling in love segment... speechless. I've pondered the majority of the thoughts you shared here, but this... it never occurred to me. I need to slow down and be in the moments I'll cherish while I'm living them. Not just falling in love, but bonding deeply with those I already love.

I talk to my plant every day and she is so happy. She’s survived 2 moves and I’m thrilled

It's like not knowing you're in the good ole days until they're over and you're thinking back to what you felt were the good ole days.

I love seeing clearly. I was without any glasses for over 5 years and getting them back, I just can't believe I was walking around without seeing every detail. Also I think you look great with glasses!

The label thing had always confounded me

The entire "Not a pocket" sequence was absolute GOLD.

I missed you so much!! I’m soo glad I came in search of your KZfaq from insta. Here I go creepin on your channelllll :) finding this made my day. Hope you and Jonas and bbs are great!

I laughed I cringed I laughed I cried. I loved EVERY MOMENT! This is exactly what I needed to put a smile on my masked RBF face. 😂 Thank you dear lady for sharing your life with us! 🐝

ABSOLUTELY DIED when you gave your pocket 101 lecture!!

The pockets part was hilarious!! And I dress like you but my name brand super fashionista sister says you CAN wear jean with jean (not that we really care - it’s all about the pockets baby!)

It's so good to see u, I'm glad I read some comments on something over on TT, SO HAPPY YOU ARE BACK AT THIS, YOU ARE A WONDERFUL VOICE AND TALENT IN THIS WORLD!

Elyse, I’m the same way, I just have random thoughts that I write down often as well.

My 21 year old kid and I talk about the color thing often. If everyone is seeing something different how would we ever know.

Had to pause the video to inform you. As far as my own fascination with zombie apocalypse, I figured out this has to do with my living with severe mental illnesses my entire life while everyone around me invalidated me and told me I was fine. Every single day since childhood was torture for this reason, and the idea that a zombie could be around every corner fit my internal emotional experience and validated me more than my real life. This theory was validated by progressing in my trauma work, and now that I have a supportive home, mental health treatment, and almost no more suicidality, my fascination with zombie apocalypse has dwindled.

The talking and making the conversation about you is really common in autistic and adhd individuals. It’s anecdotal. Showing that we relate to how they are feeling. But it is often taken by allistic/ neurotypical people as being rude and only making the conversation about you. It’s just a different form of communication. 😊

I have questioned the color thing since my teens! (I’m in my 40’s now.) My red might be your blue, but we have always been told it’s red. 🤯 I enjoyed this very much! Thank you for an insight into your random thoughts. ☺️

DYING at the pocket bit 😂 And loving the INCREDIBLE random thoughts ❤ Some of those blew my mind.

i was sitting on my front porch the other day with my husband and i was looking at our red car and i literally had the SAME thought about color. i was like, how do i know the red i see is the red he sees? HOWWW?!? i didn’t say it out loud to him because i thought it sounded nonsensical!! 😂😂😂 glad i am not the only one that thinks these things! also, your naturally curly hair without the products and styling is GORG!!

I just adore this woman

This is an prime example of why long form content has always been superior 😊

I spent all day, literally since 7AM, doing nothing but watching your vlogs on repeat because they are so comforting. Then surprise! A new video! Thank you, Elyse! ❤

Yes. The way I've been ignoring my salad for ten minutes while I search for something to watch AND FINALLY this pops up! Saved my lunch 🙌

Plants can hear us, for sure. I agree with you on a few of these. Most are things I have never thought of, but now I am!

Absolutely agree about the coloo! I have said those exact words: "how do we know we see the same colors?" I theorize that favorite colors exist because we see them differently

Cue Creed, “If that’s flashing lock me up.” 😂

The part at 7:45 about reading a book as though it were a script... sometimes reading over a book I love, I find myself reading the lines of one character out loud, like I am the character. Not prepping for a movie role, just like I am inhabiting the character for a minute.

Ahhh I have missed you on the clock app! So nice to see you and hear all of your insights no matter how random. There’s just something about it that’s good for my soul. I hope you’re well

I LOVE YOUR VOICE ELYSE! ❤️❤️❤️ The silence at the kangaroo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’m so glad people taking other people’s glasses to see how blind they are is a universal experience.

The "Breaking News" bit was brilliant I need MUCH MORE of that😂 You conversing with your "assistant" was comedic gold I watched it 4 times🤣
