Loved having you there and you looked great. (non-ironic) -John

I’m amazed at how Ludwig gets in these situations, it’s like leaving your Sim unattended for too long

whenever i feel embarrassed in a social situation from now on im gonna think of this video and realize it could be worse

What could you possibly have thought a movie called “the virgin suicides” was about Ludwig

It would have been 100 times less awkward if Lud stuck to referencing Spiderman instead of Virgin Suicides xD

The best part was when he said "every year," and Squeex nodded emphatically, grinning. "YEP!" I can just imagine how excited Squeex always is. 🤣

editing out squeex in the thumbnail for george clooney is wild 😭

Kirsten Dunst is definitely going to use this for an anecdote on a talk show someday lol

bro really made this whole story to cover up the fact he watches 'the virgin suicides' every year

11:00 Love how Linus fighting for his wife's purse inside the studio is the least of his worries in that moment

As someone with severe social anxiety this entire video is giving me traumatic flashbacks to every event I have been to for the last decade.

"Hey Kirsten, my name is Ludwig and this is my friend Squeekz, were really big fans of your work, is it okay if we grab a picture with you?" ITS THAT EASY MANN

This is SO weird, I JUST heard a conversation somewhere about how it would be very weird if you were to watch a film like idk... Virgin Suicides more than ONCE. And here are Lud and Squeex telling THE Kirsten Dunst that they watch it EVERY YEAR together...

As soon as he said they told Kirsten Dunst they watched Virgin Su1c1des every year it was over 🤣🤣

ludwigs outfit looks like he is a drunk divorced dad coming back from vegas

NOT THE JOHN GREEN TUMBLR SLANDER LMAO I THOUGHT WE WERE PAST THAT

i can't even say, "it could be worse" for this one

the virgin suicides move was definitely the worst thing of that day

this might’ve been the most secondhand embarrassment i’ve ever experienced watching a youtube video, thank you ludwig

IT KEPT GETTING WORSE AND WORSE OH MY GOD MAN I FELT THAT IN MY SOUL What a story man

Outta touch Ludwig, rich little Ludwig off to his movie premiers, gonna regales with tales of celebrities he mingled with

ludwig really does laugh like that; if y'all remember when sweet anita announced an award at the steamer awards you can hear Ludwig's "HA" after Anita said "I'm here to F*ck!"

*Gets invited to a movie premiere by the director* Title:i SNUCK into a movie premiere

This has gotta be my favorite story time. 😂

This deserves to be an animated storytime vid and you're doing a disservice to this story by not upping the production value just this one time

This is Murphys law at work, everything that could go wrong, went wrong in the most horrible, horrible way possible

Ludwig and Fuslie have to be two of the best storytellers on the internet.

When he said he and Squeex watch 'The Virgin Suicides' every year I wanted to die for him.

The funniest part of this is that in the Virgin Suicides, the sisters take a photo which each overshadows the way they're going to die. Then Ludwig just puts out there that they watch it every year and now want a photo 😂😂

24:49 BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOU LITERALLY COULD HAVE SAID YOU LOVED CIVIL WAR! IT JUST FUCKING CAME OUT!

Comin' at you with yet another classic installment of the Misadventures of Pookie and Dubbin

The fucking laughter from this situation makes it alll worth it

First 10 minutes: slightly awkward but completely normal. Last 10 minutes: Holy shit

The funniest part is that every bad interaction would have not happened with just 2 seconds of extra thought 😭😭

The ending was hilarious, haven't had that good of a laugh in a long time

Ludwig is such a fucking good story teller. How I tell stories makes the souls of my listeners leave their bodies

Man, these are the kinda stories that just feel like a sitcom episode. Incredible

This feels like the nightmare my social anxiety tells me will happen every time I go out.

I'm so grateful for Ludwig. For every time single time I've put my foot in my mouth, I know there's 6 occasions where Lud has nawed off his whole leg.

No way. LMAO The front 2 seats. Seeing the image of the 2 seats front and center had me crying. I would love to imagine this was done intentionally because whoever assigned the seats knows ludwig and knows he'd be late.

don't worry, ludwig, kirsten dunst is only going to remember that interaction for the rest of her days

This is the hardest i've ever laughed in my life😂 That kirsten dunst story was😭😭😭

Blocking Kids from Saying Ludwig Fell off.

Gotta give Kirsten credit for letting y'all get the picture, she probably felt so creeped out

Bro coulda just said “hey my mom loves you! Can we take a pic?”

I'll be honest and say I'm not in your demo and haven't seen a whole lot of your streams, but this was fucking epic storytelling. I usually skip around in videos to find the interesting parts, but I watched this whole fucking tragedy from start to finish. Embarrassing or not, this was a night I doubt you'll ever forget. Thanks for bringing us along!

Someone should tell Ludwig you don't actually need to come up with a story to ask a celebrity for a photo at a movie premier. You just go up and say "Hey Kirsten, my friend here is a big fan, could we maybe get a quick photo?" You ever notice that Ludwig's encounters with people are always awkward specifically because Ludwig makes them awkward? It's like he's playing a Bethesda game and just keeps picking the dumbest dialog options possible just to see if it'll make the game unfinishable.

not looking up the plot beforehand is fucking insane LMAO

This is a masterpiece of a story. I don’t think a single thing could’ve gone worse, socially.

I'm autistic and I don't think I've had interactions that strange in my adult life.

The fact that neither of you knew that an event with a red carpet is an event where you dress up is INSANE

What a masterclass in storytelling kept me interested the whole way

I love lud's storytelling so so much

I like old ludwig, new ludwig, and new new rich Hollywood Ludwig. His* attitude on any situation is refreshing. Thanks to lud I got to see a new side to Linus. And I've been watching Linus for like 10 years or something.

dude if it wasn't ludwig nobody would believe this story

I think this cured my social anxiety, nothing I could do would be worse than this

laughing like crazy at the end wtf was the end, laughed after so long

These conversations would've had me questioning my existence

watching spiderman every year together would’ve been so much better 💀

Bro this whole story sounded like a seth rogan movie with the linus side plot and everything. only thing making it not a seth rogan movie was that they weren't high enough. but oh man that was hilarious

The Virgin Suicides is definitely one of those "watch once and never again" kind of movies. Like Requiem for a Dream or Room

This story belongs in a museum.

Ludwig talking about his embarrassing laugh Ludwig: I promise its real Chat: We know

Ludwig's stories are so fucking funny. He's so good

9:00 i am litrally the same something funny happens "HA" something awkward happens "HA" ludwig talking about how the way he laughs with just a "HA" i also laughed at that with a "HA" unironically

I have never laughed so much to a Ludwig video. Quality content

I love these stories, Ludwig you need to go out more and get us more of them

Well at least you gave Kirsten Dunst a pretty memorable fan interaction. Doubt she'll forget the 2 dudes who walked up to her at a John Green movie premiere and admitted to liking *The Virgin Suicides* so much that they *both* watch it every year lmao

Bro this is a stand up bit, it's golden

Bro just went through every introvert's fear in one day

This video is so good, I watch it every year with my friends!

This entire video, all I thought was "Ludwig NOOO"

9:08 that made me laugh, and then i realized i laugh the exact same fucking way

this is one of the most entertaining thing ive seen in a while

watching a ludwig video during my break at my minimum wage job is the only joy i have left in this world. banger video

Lud had that interaction with Isabella and then immediately booked voice lessons for his laugh

These stories... Dear god... I died of second hand embarrassment just listening to them. 😂

I was like “oh shit, it’s literally a John Green movie premiere. How can you fuck up what is basically a nerfighteria event…” Oh boy did I not know…

Man...long time viewer who hasnt kept up in the last year or so. It was nice to pop back in for an classic Lud story time. Although the subject matter is wildly different in recent years, I dont think its a net negative. Keep crushin it man!

This is actually one of the funniest stories I have ever heard. Legitimately comedy gold. Still reeling from the fact that Lud wore crocs to a movie premiere 😭😭

the bald guy on the yard is right to never let ludwig schedule or invite him to anything

13 squibbles in 5 lipoos, guy tootied off

25:29 😂 💀 it amazes me how Ludwig can dig himself further into the rabbit hole. 😂

What a rollercoaster of emotions this video was

Ludwag finally coming out, so proud of you ❤

Rich Ludwig at it again mansplaining his experiences

Chat roasting the laugh makes it even funnier

This was one of the better videos so far in 2024 and by the end I was literally laughing out loud, thank you for this upload lmao

Really embodied the youtuber spirit. Good on u lud

oh god that kirsten dunst story

I just love all these stories man... I couldn't stop my laugh

Ludwig's public interactions never fail to make me feel better about myself

Only true fans know that this was called the most embarrassing day of my life first

So this is what Mr. Mogul was talking about in the Drake vs Kendrick video

This has got to be one of the funniest stories Ludwig has ever told. I was laughing so hard

ludwig saying the laugh talk with isabella is his worst nightmare--imagine her pov omgggg

I laughed way too hard at the +1

i love when Ludwig posts

Absolutely love your stories of experiences

ludwig story time is just pure gem
