"i use my hair to express myself" "that sounds really boring" *"did i stutter"*

This video is the definition of They had us in the first half

Bro why is the notebook just bullying the yellow guy😭😭

I overheard the term “get creative” today and suddenly remembered all of my forgotten trauma💀

Imagine a kid clicking on this thinking it’s Elmo but then this happens

The 41k dislikes are parents who showed this to their children

I come back and rewatch the entire series every once and a while bc I genuinely just love the songs for some reason

I hate how much I hesitated to watch this masterpiece because i thought it would be too scary, and honestly I’m glad I just kinda said “just watch it already” cause holy crap I love this series so much

I see they got Squidward to play the outro.

A moment of silence for the 5 year old kids who thought this was just going to be an innocent children’s video.

this is amazing. i remember being a child coming across this video, being traumatised but obsessed with it and rewatching it many times. i couldn’t comprehend at the time what this film was about. as an adult, i had entirely forgotten about this film and the possibility of its meaning. it’s incredible to be able to rewatch this across these two points of time in my lifespan and reconcile with my child self and collective childhoods with a newfound understanding and resonance. this is a fucking masterpiece and i’m so glad that it blew up in the way it did because of its absurdity to hopefully resonate with more people.

This is my comfort series 😭

"What did I just watch?" - Me, a few years ago. "What did I just watch?" - Me, now. "What did I just watch?" - Me, in 2055.

“Green is not a creative colour” Yellow guy: *depression noises*

I love how due to the fact that red guy is already live action the others look creepy but red guy hasn't changed

It honestly infuriates me just how catchy this tune is.

"9 years ago" Jesus Christ I'm so old.

I am today years old when I found this and now it is living rent free in my mind.

Ah yes the start to my favorite series do not wrap your arms around me I’m quite frightened

“Green!” *GREEN IS NOT A CREATIVE COLOR*

“I use my hair to express myself-“ “That sounds boring.” “I U S E M Y H A I R T O E X P R E S S M Y S E L F”

I remember watching this for the first time in the limo after senior prom 2013 😭

The evelution from this to yellow guy climbing the stairs and finding lesley is wild to me

I just realized something: she says being creative is her favorite IDEA. She likes the idea of creativity, but not actual creativity.

“Green is not a creative color” My plants: *sad plant noises*

"Childhood ruined" yeah right. This WAS my childhood!

Never seen this series before, and honestly I wish I found it sooner. It's excellent.

2012 comments: Green is not a creative color 2020 comments : Green is not a creative color 2024 comments : Green is not a creative color

You know how most parents just put on something random for their children and then leave them be? There had to be at least one parent who put this on for their child...

This comment is either “my first time watching DHMIS” or “coming back for nostalgia” and I love it

this is the start of a masterpiece

What's your favorite idea? Mine is being--- ✨C R E A T I V E✨ How do you get that idea? I just try to think--- ✨C R E A T I V E L Y✨ Now when you look at this orange... Tell me please, What do you see? "It's just a boring old orange!" Maybe to you, But not to me! ~I see a silly face~ Looking along And smiling at me! ......the start of a nightmare.

"Green is not a creative colour" *_Laughs in green screen_*

I love how recent the comments are. We all just randomly remembered this video and came back to it

My sister showed me this when I was 6 and I started crying 3 years later it’s my favorite horror show ever

Me in the first half: Oh! Just a cute little children’s video☺️ Me in the second half:wtf did I just see💀

“I use my hair to express myself” “That sounds really boring” “...” “I use my hair to express myself”

moral of the story: *don't be creative.* *ever.*

I remember watching this when I was pretty young and I gotta say it fucked me up, like it really left a residual fear within me that still makes me feel spooked even if I wouldn’t be. It’s hard to explain but just know I’m glad I watched this and was scared

I watch this religiously like EVERYDAY

Get creative they said Nothing bad will happen they said

So this would be the horror equivalent of society saying "be yourself but not this way". I also can't help but notice that we happen to live, in fact, in a society.

Such nostalgia

2:54 is the sound of a clarinet :3

My mom is an art teacher and she thought this was actually about creativity and how to be creative. She is a 5th - 6th grade teacher

Her: He's probably thinking about other women His brain:

I remember seeing this when I was really young and the second one. Made me terrified. 😭👍 Great job.

Imagine this playing in your school.

red guy: that sounds really boring notebook: *so you have chosen death*

Who else is coming back to revisit old memories?

I don’t how I’m watching this years later and relating on a whole other level

So glad I lived long enough to see this turn in to a full fledged series.

“Green is not a creative color” Kermit the Frog: Sheesh.

2011: Ahhh my childhood is ruined! 2024: *Nostalgia...*

I love this series, 10/10!

the comment section is still thriving after 10 years. that’s dedication

"Green is not a creative color" The duck: guess I'll die

Mums - “Hey this looks like a good show for my kid!”: top 10 words before disaster

We can all agree that each episodes songks a banger

Remember kids... *green is not a creative color*

This video is the equivalent of “they had us in the first half ngl”

I think I found this when I was in 5th grade, looking up “Creative Writing Ideas” for a school assignment…

Dhmis is my favorite series, is amazing, thank you Joseph & Rebecca🎉❤

"I use my hair to express myself" "That sounds really boring" *_I use my hair to express myself_*

"Green is not a creative color" *cries in shrek*

This is what inspired that gumball episode that scared me as a kid

time to watch this again like i do every week

Me remembering this existed 9 years later: 🏃🏽‍♀️

“ _what’s ur favourite colour ?_ “ “ *purp-* “ “ _GREEN IS NOT A CREATIVE COLOUR._ “

i come back to this so very frequently and then i fall down a rabbit hole of creativity, colour, magic and pain

Season 2 has been out for a while now, yet season 1 feels still so fresh.

“Listen to your heart. Listen to the rain. Listen to the voices in your brain.” Truly a lyrical masterpiece

8 years later still screaming, "GREEN IS NOT A CREATIVE COLOUR"

I used to watch all these videos when I was like 8 or 10 I’m currently 17 and I’m still scared

DHMIS

"I use my hair to express myself!" "Thats pretty boring." " *I USE MY HAIR TO EXPRESS MYSELF-* "

_green is not a creative color_ Duck: *Offended*

um classico,amo

The sax at the end goes hard

"I use my hair to express myself" "That sounds pretty boring" 🙂 *"I U S E M Y H A I R T O E X P R E S S M Y S E L F"*

“Hey mom can we get Sesame Street?” Mom:we have Sesame Street at home Sesame Street at home:

finally was able to watch season two so im rewatching it cause why not

I really like what this says about creativity, simply put, creativity is a tool that serves a purpose and at such can be of danger, initialy in the video its purpose its to simply lighten the mood and have a little fun, then, as this lighthearted notebook teaches them about creativity, and explicitly tells them that one way to be creative its to listen to the voices in their heads, thats when it starts to get weird and grotesc, because then creativity becomes then becomes to serve those ideas in the brain that are not usually spoken, because they happen to appear in the mind of the individual with them disregarding them as of, incorrect, ugly, forbiden, but since the only point its to be creative, to express, they get and out, i feel like this perfectly describes the internet of the times, since, with all the newfound possibilities of the internet, so came the expression of those that are not so well looked upon in our societies

Teacher: why didn’t you go to the bathroom during lunch? Bathroom during lunch: 2:31

Who’s still coming back to this masterpiece every once in a while

Lore: DHMIS 1-6 actually is 1 singular day this one being breakfast the last one being bed time. When you really listen and think about the song, the people are “not creative” thus meaning they are depressed. The notepad sings “LISTEN TO RAIN, LISTEN TO THE VOICES IN YOUR BRAIN” meaning they have suicidal or dark thoughts, then you see the bird which dies later in the series in DHMIS 5, writes death and when the yellow guy says green( the bird is green), the notepad says green is not a creative color while holding what you think is an x but is really a a cross meaning death. When the camera starts spazzing you see cameras almost like a film, which is confirmed that they’re life is like a film in DHMIS 6, right before the day changes Btw the dark goo represents the depression taking over their attempts maybe

12 Year’s Ago is MAD ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🔥🐐

imagine a teacher showing this to some kindergarten kids thinking it's a nice little song about creativity...

I love the last line: "Lets all agree to never be creative again"

Dude I used to watch this as a kid 😭

remind me to come back next year

“When you stare at the clouds in the sky, don’t you find it exciting?” ✨ *NO* ✨

“i use my hair to express myself” “that sounds boring” “I👏🏻USE👏🏻MY👏🏻HAIR👏🏻TO👏🏻EXPRESS👏🏻MYSELF👏🏻”

I love this series sm

I cant believe this is 12 years old 💔

I can’t believe I watched this when I was younger and still slept at night

*We're seven years in and people are still liking comments that are just lyrics from the video.*

So glad I watched it, will be back.

my friends: i had a dream i got married to my crush my fucking dreams:
