A Moment With Wil – Episode 17

  • blog
  • Film

I couple of years ago, I got this idea to make these really stupid short videos where I did stupid things and then thanked the viewer for spending that moment with me.

I’ve made 17 of them (this is not just a clever title), but never did anything with them other than show a few of them at various w00tstocks.

I think I’ll start uploading some of them to my YouTube channel, because they’re mildly amusing to me. To get us started, here’s the most recent one I made:

Thank you for spending this moment with me.

    Not telling us what sort of soup it was is just plain evil.

    But… but… what kind of soup is it??? So many unanswered questions!!

    1. Wil says:
      12 September, 2012 at 12:26 pm

      Homemade chicken vegetable soup.

        Whew! Thank you. Now I’ll be able to sleep tonight.

    I greatly enjoyed spending that soup moment with you, almost as much as I enjoyed creating the U.S.S. Wil Wheaton: http://goo.gl/t8hh5

    No, Wil… thank YOU for sharing that moment with us! 😉 So… if it was homemade soup… what kind and did you or Anne (or someone completely different) make it?

    You ‘acted’ that very well, Wil. ;*-)>

    Nice hat!

    That sounded like some good soup. I would like a Marlowe and Seamus episode, please.

    Oh geez… what does it say about me, and my level of geekery, that I’ve actually already seen this video?

    You are as big a goofball as my brother and my sons! Good thing I like goofballs.

    Oh, and welcome back! I missed you. (*hugs, head on shoulder*)

    …..now I kinda want some soup.

    That look on your face when you start drinking the soup from the bowl, awesome! Keep being you and bringing us top-shelf entertainments!

    You are one spoony quipster Wil. Thanks for sharing

    That looked quite a bit like air soup.

  15. Lord-Clark says:
    12 September, 2012 at 1:04 pm

    HAHAHA that is brilliant, but also would like to know the what soup that was 😀

  16. Annie VanderMeer Mitsoda says:
    12 September, 2012 at 1:23 pm

    There are those people, Wil, who think that soup is only good in cold weather, just like ice cream is only good in hot weather. I think that idea is NONSENSE, sir, and it gratifies me that you do not fall into that “soup = cold only” TRAP.

    Also I’m totally gonna make minestrone this weekend out of vegetables from my OWN GARDEN and it will be totally awesome and I will think of this video as I eat it <3

    Do you like baked potato soup, Wil? I’ve got an excellent recipe. 😉

    Silly Wil, Chicken is not a vegetable

    1. Jennifer Atkinson says:
      12 September, 2012 at 2:00 pm

      It could have been a vegetable…if the chicken was in some sort of terrible accident resulting in brain death, but kept alive until it’s next of kin could decide whether or not to pull the plug … or drop the axe.

  20. Kerri Fletcher says:
    12 September, 2012 at 1:57 pm

    Wil…this is why I love you & enjoy following you.

  21. voicebyjack says:
    12 September, 2012 at 2:00 pm

    Ah. That was…entertaining. And it made me hungry. And it crashed my browser. Carry on.

  22. Laura Lyons says:
    12 September, 2012 at 3:27 pm

    well thanks for that! looks like we’re 16 behind..

    Must have been good soup! So glad to have shared that moment with you. Of course, I just shared it now, and the moment was then. HAVE WE CRACKED TIME TRAVEL AT LAST?????

  25. Jennifer Austin says:
    12 September, 2012 at 5:15 pm

    True story, the cat sleeping in my lap didn’t appreciate the soup – clawed the crap out of me just now.

    I was laughing so hard. It reminds me of my friends podcast. “Cool Dudes with Fanny Packs” Check out their Facebook page.

    what a great way to start the day, left a smile on my face and now I am craving soup. thanks for the moment, looking forward to the others.

    Oh Wil, you’re such a dweeb. In a good way, that is. 🙂

  30. beth9133 says:

    The end was the best. Not because it was over!! No! Because of your look! Loved it!

  31. Alan says:
    12 September, 2012 at 10:25 pm

    I don’t know if I’m laughing at you or with you. I’m laughing though.

    For those of you not in the know, this really is exactly like watching Wil from outside his living room window. But not his bedroom window. Never his bedroom window. Because that would just be creepy.

  32. rabidsi says:

    Sir, I must point out that you have made a massive faux pas in slurping from the bowl.

    No, not because it is bad manners, but because you have wasted the opportunity to mop it up with some delicious, warm, freshly home baked bread. For shame.

  33. trishalynn says:
    13 September, 2012 at 2:21 am

    First off, getting my “moderated comment” out of the way.

    Second, I have to know how you recorded the slurping sound. Did you do a separate audio take and splice it in? Or did you just increase the audio on an existing slurp?

    1. Wil says:
      13 September, 2012 at 8:26 am

      I isolated the audio and blasted it all the way up to eleven during that section.

      1. Stéphanie Lavigne-Renaud says:
        13 September, 2012 at 11:23 am

        ha! The sound totally offended my cat.

  34. Katie Stacey says:
    13 September, 2012 at 6:25 am

    That was really stupid. Awesomely, entertainingly, stupid.

    Thank you for sharing that moment with the world, Wil.

    Goorin Bros. hat… Awesome. I am a big fan of theirs. Hit them up every time I am on the west coast.

    When we pick up a roasted chicken at Costco, we pull all the meat off and immediately take a mallet to it, braking the bones and boil it up for future recipes. Mmm….good!

  37. Aliskye Rosel says:
    13 September, 2012 at 1:51 pm

    I don’t know why that is so hilarious, but I’m glad I closed my office door before viewing it. 🙂

    They’re not just mildly amusing to you, they’re that way to me too (since I can’t be assuming to the rest of the crew.)

  39. rbelknap says:
    14 September, 2012 at 9:36 am

    For some reason, I thought the “Moment’s with Wil” were a bit, (Or are they bits, being multiple moments? GAH – curse you grammar!) created specifically for W00tStock. I thought they were hilarious then, thanks for sharing them again now. 🙂

  40. n h says:
    15 September, 2012 at 9:20 pm

    Fricking hilarious.
    Can’t wait to spend at least 16 more moments with you.

    My father would have us first announce “The bowl is now a cup! The bowl is now a cup!” Then you could drink out of it! Always a summer favorite!
