Insane How-To Videos from the 50s

Hey guy welcome back to the present my name is Drew and it's currently day so I've been working on another video for the last week and I came across a wall that I wanted to take a break and work on into something a little lighter and I think I found the perfect topic for a video like the one you see yesterday, as I often do. I fell down a YouTube rabbit hole and found a bunch of weird how-to

videos

from like 60 years ago, no, I wasn't still alive in the 50s, my parents didn't invent me until about 40 years later, but I read and watched what enough about the 50's to know it was weird, college fees were like $3, men wore suits all the time. time for some reason and it seemed like there were a lot more rules, at least that's what some of these instructional

videos

would suggest.

I don't know what the right word is, but I will say that there seem to be many more. blunt back then, okay I know what the right word is, it's sexist, but I'm not here to make a video about what problematic people used to be like eighty years ago, obviously things have changed. Society has changed a lot and we live in a society, I think a lot of time has passed, a lot of progress has been made, so at this point, hopefully, we can look back and just laugh at how absurd it is to say that this first video was created in 1948 and is called how to attract a man so that ladies listen to Frank when a young man's fantasy turns into thoughts.

What's happening? Exam week helps you write down what you needed to put down that notebook and enjoy some of the beauties of nature. See what I mean, yes, but wait a minute. minute young lady, how did you come up with this image? Oh, it's so hard. You see, we're trying to make a point about nature and beauty and you're not exactly helping. You know, oh my gosh, don't worry, this has a happy ending though. Right now we are just showing you the above photo of a horrible monster and then it transforms into a beautiful woman with just a few small adjustments you could add.

Look at those blocks and the way that skirt hangs and those socks don't fall down. I started, ha, I'm sorry, there must have been a mistake, you don't exactly seem like the kind of person to make this guy behave like a human being, even I behave like a human being, are they saying that she's not the one? type of girl who stays with this boy? horny you just ruined my day. I'll read this book somewhere else, but wait a minute, come back. Ok, let's start all over again. Oh yeah, I'll never forget the first time I saw Amanda and thought, "Oh, every brother is right, look." that hair well I'm sure she had the same mouth before I don't think she has a new mouth or skin and now she looks at that blouse and now she looks at the skirt and look at her thank you very much for helping us prove a point.

However, the point was that they were proving, ladies, that if you are trying to get a boyfriend, don't forget that you have to have skin and a mouth, if you don't have skin or a mouth, you won't get a boyfriend. I don't know any better, I'd say this narrator likes that guy, you two know the value of a good look, see that was brought here with her blouse unbuttoned, why should she die, not like you young man, you should get out cock and lived happily ever after, I guess they just looked at each other for a couple of seconds, so ladies, now that we've learned how to get a boyfriend by tucking your shirt in, let's go one step further and figure out how to become popular.

There are no girls in our math class. My name is Carolyn Ames. She's fine, girl. I don't know what she is, but there's something about her that you like. characters in this play, yeah, speaking of which, Jenny thinks she has the key to popularity by parking in cars with the boys at night, when Jerry brags about taking out Ginny, he finds out that she dates all the boys and he feels less important and now we don't. I don't feel special. No more drugs. Do not park cars. They are not very popular. Hi, Jenny is just trying to have a good time.

And how can you expect her to choose between just one of these high school kids who look like they're in her 30s, nothing like being so popular, yeah, okay, okay, what did Ellie do? Everyone can talk and she's like, yeah, yeah, oh my God, Ellie, shut up now, why is Carolyn invited to join her group when Jenny wasn't welcome? Is it because they like it? Her way of looking and dressing because she seems as interested in girls as in boys because they haven't heard any scandals about her, so, according to this, the keys to popularity are dressing well, being bisexual and simply not getting into any problem, okay, great.

I'm learning a lot about popularity and high school, which means nothing to me because I'm 26, so let's look at something a little more mature, let's look at a couple of Folgers coffee commercials that focus on a married couple and the struggles That they face. Have you ever seen Larry so happy? Oh, honey, happiness is one holiday away from your car's anniversary. Why so sad? Not good, it's your coffee again, even today, honey, your coffee just doesn't taste good at all. They didn't beat around the bush. So damn, it's funny because their tone is usually very calm, but the words they say are just as cruel as in the '50s, you could say anything to anyone and it wouldn't even sound mean because everyone's talking on that singing liner. accent honey, how can I put this politely if I came home tonight and discovered your dead body on the floor?

Science Mountain grown for a richer flavor I like how he didn't answer his question at all you said Mountain, what exactly does that mean? You see, young lady, that's what we wrote on the side and that's what a mountain looks like, okay, but is that it? make it taste better I don't know, you know it's a crime not to have delicious coffee like this all the time we will do it now that I discovered your mountain vultures make your husband love you again or maybe for the first time it's worth this Next It's not just the best vulture commercial, it's probably the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life.

Hello, it's the coffee. Well, I mean, it's just as bad as yesterday. There is no improvement at all. Harold, don't shake your head. You have to do it. tell me what's wrong with coffee bad taste bad days Solis descriptive way of telling someone why something is not good. I like this one too because it's like how can she be the bad guy here when he's like an idiot that she can't even use? words mm-hmm-hmm-hmm this is like a beautiful piece of art right here I imagine something like this will happen at work you wanted to see me yes, have a seat, it's all good mm-hmm, could you tell me why? mmm, are you okay? saying goodbye mm-hmm wait seriously what did I do bad job could you be more specific job bad you're not saying anything not working good job bad job job bad it's not good for me bad job I have doing a bad job I don't know what It's specifically about the coffee the '60s, but there are so many crazy coffee commercials that took it seriously.

Harvey, why don't you think about just a nice cup of coffee for your birthday? Good coffee was apparently like the cornerstone of a marriage. Nothing else mattered. it was just about the quality of your coffee, you're kidding. I'm serious, honey, your coffee can be drunk pretty strong, so sure, coffee, see you later, okay, but somehow that's not even the craziest. Da Folgers was weird, look at Maxwell House, birdy was that good morning kiss, you got a coffee, I bet it's wonderful, apparently running out of coffee in the '60s was as bad as going to jail, oh, it's the new instant giant size Maxwell House, you will never have to be without my terrible, terrible husband again.

Now it's funny. I started putting this video together by going through all these how-to videos from a channel called Old TV Time and actually only a couple of them were a little strange. In fact, I found many of them to be somewhat useful. I wish I had seen when I was in high school things that you don't really think about or things that I had to learn on my own, like how to control your emotions, good eating habits, and when you're 16 and in your first relationship just because you dated this girl for two months doesn't mean you're in love with her, you're not going to be with her forever maybe you will but probably not.

I thought all the girls I dated were I'm going to end up getting married and I was wrong five out of six times, but I think some of these are really cool anyway. I think they are good lessons. I don't know where they showed them, if they showed them at school or if I would go home and watch this on TV. I don't know, but they're actually pretty useful, but it's funny because you have all these interesting videos with good life lessons about work and relationships, which is kind of negated by these commercials where it makes it seem like the only factor What matters in a marriage is the quality of a woman's coffee, such a pretty wife, oh, another thing that I saw that I thought was very funny while I was looking for these videos was that there is a news story from 1961, your reporter.

She's walking down the street asking a group of men if her husband should help with the weekend chores, but then this thing happens, which is pretty much all I have for you today. Overall, I'd say my time machine trip to the 1950s was pretty fun. That said, I'm suddenly craving coffee for some reason, so I'm going to skip to commercials real quick and be right back, sadya, you're not enjoying dinner at all and now you want to get a divorce? Not again, we're tired of your 50 year old wife threatening to divorce you because of your bad cook it's sharam well then you have to get yourself a box of hello friend Nate oh I'm going to stop talking like that now guys you know the deal.
