  1. Weeeeeeeeeeeeee…
    It is nice to see you found threebrain… they rock!… oh, and it seems you’ve picked up even more fans… now i have to dig further through the comments to get to the bottom and post my own… oh well…

  2. I loved that article! I’m kinda a newbie around here. I found you through whowouldbuythat.com when you bought that guy’s autograph. I’m a die hard Trekie, but was shocked at a convention when ppl started bashing you in a very untrekie-like manner. I’ve always loved your work. And I love your site even more. Great job! Keep up the great work.

  3. “Yes, he really is a big geek – not one of those faux late-1990s geek-chic posers, but a real, honest-to-goodness, video game-obsessed, computer-lovin’ nerd.” *giggle* geek! yay!
    and weeeeeeeeee!!! a few days ago i was trying to remember the address to ‘the weee! thingy, ya know, with the squirrel,’ and couldn’t, and nobody else knew what the hell i was talking about. thank you!

  6. Hello! This si my first time here! Sorry, if my English is sometimes a bit bad, it is not my first language! ^_^
    I like the interview. Congratulations! I hope you have mucj more fun like this to come! I like your site, also! ^_^
    Liebe Alles!

  8. Woah! Mad props for the link to thebrain! I’d totally forgotten about it. There’s a girl in my house at school who is a muppet, and she can emulate that song so well it’s eerie.
    And here’re 7, since it’s so easy to think of 7 things that I’m tankful for right now, thanks to Wil.
    1. Gonads and Strife
    2. WWDN
    3. Canadians
    4. That sanity test posted above
    5. my radio show (lyrical phrases and ominous warnings)
    6. the new Joey Ramone album
    7. Buster Keaton

  9. 888,000 visits to the site in February–I find that hard to believe!!! Do you mean “hits”–there’s a BIG difference you know.

  11. Re: the Hits/Visitors thing.
    That was a quote in the paper, and non-tech journalists (like the one doing Wil’s piece) often don’t quite catch the hits/visitors issue. 880,000’s a pretty respectable number, though, whatever scale it happens to be on.

  16. Alright, now that you’re famous in Montreal, I got to invite you over. You have no idea how frustrating it is to us non-californians when you talk about one of your comedy shows and we can’t see it!
    Here’s my idea: We have this great party here every summer in Montreal. It’s called the Just for laughs Festival. It’s 2 weeks of comedy shows from around the world, all out in the streets. So what about you come over here to present your show? Alright, I admit it’s a bit farfetched, but you can’t blame me for hoping right?

  17. Hey Wil,
    Great Article, and Awsome Website!!!
    I stumbled across your site through the lockergnome. I was and still am a fan of star trek. All of them. Sometimes I wonder what the show would have been like if you stayed on. No matter where you go there is always going to be some sort of politics.
    I read a while back that you are thinking of getting a new computer because your other one is going bad. I could build you one better than you can buy at a store, I have built 3 computers so far and they are going on strong. My main computer is has a AMD 800mhz processor, the motherboard can handle up to a 1.4ghz which i’m getting next month. it has dual 20 gig hard drives, one for storage and one for programs, 768mb of sdram. 56x cdrom and a 16x10x40 burner. Excellent system. I’m running xp professional on it. Got rid of that crappy ME. Ofcourse, the only problem I had with ME was the defrag. I’m a total geek as well. Let me know what you think. Money is tight for everybody. I can “assimilate” stuff from your old computer into the new one, or you could build the new one for yourself and then Let the boys use the old one.
    Good luck on your home improvement. I’m looking forward to buying a house in the near future also. I used to goto home depot alot and all the ideas that would go through my head of designing the interior of the house. Can’t forget all the Nifty toys in there either. The “A-Team” heaven.
    Good to see your married. Now if I could find a woman who would love me as much as your wife loves you. I’m divorced but have a beautiful 4 year old daugher.
    After the Next Generation, I always wondered what happened to you. We all sort of know what happened to the rest of the crew. From the very first Next Gen movie, do you or did you regret not staying on and getting into the Movies as well?
    Stay strong and keep blogging away.

  21. Awesome article!
    Gonads and strife? What a great way to start the day!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
    Vickieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  22. I love coming here. You know why? Because at least once a week I see something that makes me laugh so hard I cry and weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee my pants…

  23. It’s called the Just for laughs Festival.
    So what about you come over here to present your show? Alright, I admit it’s a bit farfetched, but you can’t blame me for hoping right?
    Farfetched?? Hey, a couple of years ago William F Shatner appeared at the JFL festival and did his own version of ‘The Canadian Rant’ : http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=669771
    “My name is Wil Wheaton
    AND I AM NOT WESLEY CRUSHER!!!”

  25. Great interview, Wil – congrats (now can we ask the writer to sell her article to the Toronto Star or the Globe and Mail to give you an even wider audience?). Your site rocks (yikes I think I am too old too use that expression!) and yes, I can indeed stand your politics – those rock too.

  27. Sorry not only did I post twice by mistake, I spelled “to” wrong. And have university education. oh dear

  28. I agree with MrSpock. Wil & Company should
    consider Just For Laughs or just about anything
    that gets TV exposure. That way everyone will
    know how funny he is and not just the people
    that come to WWDN. That is my humble opinion
    anyway 🙂

  29. Yeah I read that article. That’s why I’m here!
    Cool site.
    I have to admit, I never liked Wesley. But it wasn’t personal. And you seem pretty cool, Wil.

  30. I WENT TO WWDN TODAY AND CLICKED ON THIS ONE LINK TO THIS SONG AND I LISTENED TO IT THEN LISTENED TO IT AGAIN AND WENT “WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!”

  32. Wil, yer so cool! Great article! I found your site about 2 weeks ago and I’ve been addicted ever since. But…. being so newly exposed, I don’t get the weeeeee thing. Is the link posted somewhere on the site?

  33. This is crazy!!! WEEEEEEEE. Now I have to go and change my shorts caused I laughed so hard I peed in my pants.

  37. Glad you found the article online — it didn’t occur to me you might find it that way, rather than me snailing it to you as i suggested. Weee!

  38. Wow. I must say that was a pretty good interview.
    888,000 visits in February? All I can say is, WOW.
    YYYYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH.

  39. I know, when I saw the 888,000 visits, I almost shat my drawers. That’s a lot of freakin hits – are ya black and blue yet?
    That’s so awesome. I guess Wil Wheaton really does have a posse!!!!
    Vickie

  40. 111,000 of those visits was Roughy reloading the page to see if any cheese would appear.
    Nice website, “noworriesmon”, welcome online.
    And if one more person wets their pants, I suspect Wil will have to add Depends to the store, imprinted with “Wil Wheaton has a pissy posse, and you’re it!”
    –NT

  42. hms. this is my first time commenting, Wil, and i have to say that i’m very impressed with your site. i’ve actually been reading it for a month now and i have to say that i’m hooked! um, i originally came to your site after i got a link from another site that gave out blog awards and urs was one of them. and then i realized that you were actually that cute kid from “stand by me” (which is one of my cousin’s fave movies.) so now i am here writing to u and i want to ask u one question: it’s obvious that u know what ur talking about and that u know how to write so do u think u will write a book one day? i hope so.

  44. wow.
    at one point i thought the world was divided up into those online and those offline.
    then i thought it was those who liked “I like monkeys” (fine a copy at: http://www.monkeypoem.com/ ) and those who didn’t. that universe coud be further subdivided by those who found the analysis (http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/users/00/ceg/monkeys.html ) funny and those who didn’t.
    that was replaced by the twisted humour of the squirrel.
    but today i clearly see that it all boils down to those of us who first saw the squirrel at stileproject.com (complete with pr0n ads http://stileproject.com/weeee.html for an environment) and those of you who found it at thebrain.com.
    *cough*
    (“Nick Burr” or “Nick Head”?)

  45. Cool article. About time you got some respect from the press (despite the big geek part). You’ve always been crazy awesome in my book.

  46. look at any negative post this way: YOU got to hang out with gates mcfadden!
    WHEE!
    ~spoonie, a great white north one.

  47. So they made a little mistake in that article. Here are my stats for February:
    Monthly Statistics for February 2002
    Total Hits 7021992
    Total Files 4049295
    Total Pages 1028918
    Total Visits 265636
    Total KBytes 41856165

  49. OK Wil..lets not get testy..some of us just have
    that “obsessive compulsive attention to detail”
    gene…lol
