How are you? Then people could recognize me as an actor. I was on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. That was one of my first jobs. I've been on Supernatural for almost eight seasons. Now I really like writing books. And that's why I have a new book called Embrace Your Weird. It is facing your fears and infinite creativity. So, it's a really fun, fun workbook on how to unleash who you are and how to be weird and awesome.

I am very excited. I have never made one of these videos. I know... Yes, I've known the Fine Brothers for MANY years, since they made little stop motion superhero figures back in the day, so I'm very excited to be in front of the monitor. here. - (FBE) Today we will show you a series of videos and there is one thing you cannot do while

watch

ing them. - Is laugh? Yeah! Oh Lord! I've always wanted to be in one of these, bro. This is my time to shine and win. - I don't think I've lost any laughter challenges.

I've even upped my laugh challenge game to the point where I have some videos from producers that I think are hilarious. - (FBE) Here are the rules. If you laugh or smile, you get one point. And to win the game, you want as few points as possible. - Oh my God. I'm going to get like a million points. - Sweet. Let's get it. - No smile? I'm smiling because I'm nervous about wanting to smile! This is horrible. OK let's do it. - ♪ The pain is not noticeable ♪ ♪ But the pain still grows ♪ - Phil Collins, right? ♪ (percussion) ♪ - Pretty good move.

going to be? No no! Don't laugh. - ♪ I can feel it... ♪ - No. Nice try. (exhales shakily) Okay, okay. I'm ready. That? No, that doesn't count. You're awful! (ring) - Oh my God. I'm sweating. I can not smile! (laughs) I laugh more looking at you! (buzzer) - (FBE) First video downloaded.

How do you feel? - Good. I think so... Oh wait! That counts! Damn! (laughs) I forgot! (buzzer) - I just can't talk. You will not receive any comments from me. I'm not smiling. That does not count. Make that guy talk. Make the next person talk. (laughs) Get out of here! Go to the next video! (ring) - That was the closest you got to me, probably because I showed it to you. - (SpongeBob) Now it's time to turn it around... - Classic. - Oh, I love SpongeBob. - (Vivica and SpongeBob) Bring it around town. - (SpongeBob) Then do this. - I remember this episode with the bubbles. - (SpongeBob) And this and that and then... ♪ (suspenseful music) ♪ (boing) (boing) - That's good.

That's a good edit. -I wasn't allowed to

watch

SpongeBob when he was a kid, because he's horrible for the brain. Damn. (ring) - That was good. It was easier. SpongeBob was very difficult, but I don't know that Chris Pratt movie. Good? Was it even him? - (FBE) That's Avengers: Infinity War. - Oh. Well, now I'm going to get hate for not knowing what that was. (laughs) Why me? Because now I'm nervous! I'm going to win every video and lose in the middle. (ring) - That's a cute goat or lamb. I don't know which one. Sheep? - (sheep) BAAAAA! - It's not cute anymore.

I lied. - The animal ones are always good. - (sheep) BAAAAA! - But that was a little creepy. I didn't like that one. - (sheep) BAAAAA! - Ahhh! (laughs) (buzzer) - (sheep) BAAAAA! - You brought your best game today. - (laughs) - (sheep) BAAAAA! - I do not know why. It seemed so stupid! Oh Lord. We are doing it very badly. (buzzer) - If this thing like-- - (sheep) BAAAAA! - Oh God. I thought I was going to throw up or something. I thought, "This is a very strange angle." - (sheep) BAAAAA! - No, I did not do it. - (sheep) BAAAAA! - (exhales shakily) I'm fine. - (FBE) Okay.

I don't believe you, but that's okay. - No! Oh Lord! This is so bad! (buzzer) - (sheep) BAAAAA! - Hmm. I mean, it's just a sheep. - I feel very good. I mean, I feel dead inside, but that's great. - Alright. I have to settle in. Alright. This is the hardest it's ever been. The hardest thing I've ever been. Alright. Let's do it. ♪ (dramatic music) ♪ - How is this going to be funny? I am so confused. - Is this song also from Avengers? (laughs) Okay. (buzzer) - You're going to get close to a butt or something.

Pee Island. - Well. Avengers. - ♪ (hums) ♪ - . I already know this. (buzzer) - I'm not a child. Technically I'm a boy. I'm not even going to continue, because I know I smile when I talk. - I've been to Pee Pee Island in Thailand, so I put aside my disgust about that. - That's really good. It's funny how small Pee Pee Island is, though. (whimsical noise) (ding) Says a lot. - That was good. It almost caught me. How do you find those things? (grunting) (door squeaking) - This is why my roommates have to lock the door when they shower. - I would kill someone.

I would absolutely kill someone if they did this to me. - This is horrible. I would go. - (screams "Freddy Krueger") - (men scream) - Oh, I need to breathe. I need to breathe. - (screams "Freddy Krueger") - (men scream) - Wait. (laughs) There's a lot going on there. Why are there several people in the shower? (buzzer) - (screams "Freddy Krueger") - (men scream) - Umm... what? I wasn't expecting this. (ring) - (sighs) - (screams "Freddy Krueger") - (men scream) (ring) - (screams "Freddy Krueger") - (men scream) - This is how the friends and I take a shower.

If you don't shower with your friends, you're not really friends. - That was great. - (FBE) Okay. - (laughs) Damn! This is very difficult! Because? Oh man. I don't know how the other reactors do it. (buzzer) - Mm-mm, you can't fool me. Don't fool me, but you can't make me laugh. - (FBE) Yes, that's what we're doing here. - Yes Yes Yes Yes. (laughs) But that doesn't count! Come on! (buzzer) - The video is stupid, right? But think about it. It's the kids, and you have to do everything with the kids. You even have to shower with the boys.

You have to kiss the boys goodnight. - It was not funny. That was horrible. First of all, why were there so many naked people in that shower? If there were five meerkats in that bathtub, I would have ruined it. You won't catch me unless there's an animal. I'm sorry. - (men speaking in foreign language) - Oh, it's not even real. - Oh, He looked like a real person until they got him. - It's not an animal. If that was a seagull, you would have caught me. -Ah, This is going to be... ah, wow. Oh. (gently imitates the explosion) - (men speaking in foreign language) - Well, that was an illusion. - No!

No! Oh, that's so sick! NOOOOO! NOOOOOOO! (buzzer) - (laughs) How do people think... that seemed so real? Yuck! That was a good one. (ring) - That was more mind-blowing than fun. - (FBE) Okay then. - You can't just say "Okay then" "Okay" after every video! (ring) - (girl) Oh yes! - Gosh, gosh. I showed you this one and also talked about my favorite part, so ha ha ha ha. - Here we go. Moms being moms. - This reminds me of America's Funniest Home Videos. This looks retro. - (laughs) I usually say, "Ugh" when people get hurt, but that was a lot of fun. (buzzer) - High jump?

I do that. Oh! Oh. That almost made me... (laughs) I can't! Can't! She tried and failed like me in this challenge. (ring) - That would be me. That would definitely be me if I ever played that sport. - Isn't anyone going to help her? Oh, she's

laughing

. Well. - Obviously, they were serving drinks at whatever track event they were at. - Alright. And I think I'm calming down. (laughs) (buzzer) - Do you know what my favorite video of all time is and the one I laugh at every year it pops up in my Facebook memory? From here on out it more or less hurts. - I love this game, Yoshi's Island. ♪ (upbeat music) ♪ - I love Interstellar.

I think it's one of my favorite movies despite how long it is. - Is this really the movie? No, this is false. - I can keep a straight face because of how angry I am for spending money watching this movie. - Music. Mario's music just knew what they were doing. Oooh. - (child) Hey, hey. Hey Hey hey. - (laughs)! (buzzer) - Little known fact: This was actually what I was doing while filming this scene. - Anger problems. - Oh Lord. (laughs) That was a smile on my part, because I love Matthew McConaughey's face. (buzzer) - (exhales shakily) (laughs) What the hell?

This is a challenge that is crazy. (buzzer) - I know the context of that clip, so I know how serious that situation was. And man, even I cried when I saw the movie for the first time. So, I was fine, and then I just...suspended my reality and started

laughing

. - (FBE) Very good, Yeshua. That was the last video. - Can I smile now? - (FBE) You can smile. - Oh, thank God, brother! This is very difficult. - Oh Lord! (laughs) Oh yes! This is the best day ever, and this girl is just on her back.

That's the best one I've ever seen in my life. And that stupid sheep? - If you had a koala somewhere, you would be my owner. A ferret? A marsupial of any type, a type of marmot, any type of lizard. Even lizards. I would laugh at the lizards. - (FBE) So, you're also launching a podcast, Voyage to the Stars Season 2. Do you want to tell us a little about that? - Yes, I'm also doing a podcast called Voyage to The Stars, and it's a sci-fi improv podcast about a group of misfits traveling through a wormhole trying to get back to Earth.

It's just a really fun show. We invented all the dialogue. We just know where the story is going. So, it has this kind of really fun hybrid feel, where we're just trying to make as many fart jokes as possible and basically get them on the air. (fart noise) (laughs) Hey, thanks for watching me try not to laugh. You can find me anywhere online, @FeliciaDay. You can get my new book at
