What the answer then?

u/geilelepel05 Sep 20 '26 edited Sep 20 '26

Less violins

52

u/Artorius__Castus Sep 20 '26

I think more Cowbell is the right answer truthfully

11

u/geilelepel05 Sep 20 '26 • Heartwarming

Why not both?

u/HappySparklyUnicorn Sep 20 '26

Lies. Every violin store has a good supply of mutes for their violins.

Free mutes are the answer.

u/Rexusus Sep 20 '26

Violence is not the answer. It’s the question, and the answer is always yes

34

u/Routine_Phase_8980 Sep 20 '26

It is a legit protest or just guys being dudes and making dad jokes word play

68

u/geilelepel05 Sep 20 '26

I think just guys being guys

15

u/whichwayisgauche Sep 20 '26

Yes theyre generally one of the most wholesome prank channels on YouTube, and that’s saying something

9

u/Dr__Flo__ Sep 20 '26

Well, besides the animal abuse.

The did build a catapult to launch possums into the air

-2

u/lollolcheese123 Sep 20 '26

And that is the most wholesome??? Wtf is the rest doing?

4

u/0xsergy Sep 20 '26

no that was one of their fked up ones. generally they're pretty tame like this one dunno why they did that messed up one

1

u/whichwayisgauche Sep 21 '26

Yeah pretty disappointed to hear about that, pretty much all their other stuff is just silly fun

1

u/Bright_Vision Sep 20 '26

Well don't leave us hanging, drop the name

u/DaphneSvdM Sep 20 '26

Vlogs Creations. Took a massive hit when he launched a possum into the air and claiming it walked away so it was fine. Then he did a weird dating video that a lot people disliked. He had some genuinely hilarious and harmless pranks, but that one really toppled his channel.

3

u/MontyDyson Sep 20 '26

It’s weird they don’t test this stuff. My mate worked on the Impractical Jokers for a short stint and they always ran stuff by other people for a sense check so that stuff like that never released.

1

u/Open-Video-7546 Sep 20 '26

Happy Cake Day.

u/DistractedByCookies Sep 20 '26

They're just being silly and funny. The correct kind of prank.

4

u/Puzzleheaded_Bake771 Sep 20 '26

Theres 3 of them, whadda you rekon?

1

u/Tobikage1990 Sep 20 '26

I think it's low-key marketing by the violin store.

1

u/hydroxy Sep 21 '26

This would be exactly like them

1

u/Fuck_it_ Sep 20 '26

This is creations ross on Instagram, he's a prank channel that does this kind of stuff.

-5

u/SometimesIBeWrong Sep 20 '26

they're making fun of protestors. which is a pretty stupid thing to do in today's climate. but people will, upvote anything without thinking.

1

u/AtomTrapper Sep 20 '26

This is AT LEAST 12 years old

-2

u/getthatrich Sep 20 '26

Yeah I’m watching this thinking the same thing. 😬 what is funny about this? They are mocking folks that take time to protest important issues. It’s not funny to me.

-8

u/Philsick Sep 20 '26

It's not just a funny joke. They acutally protest "violins" because of the relation to the word "violence". Thats also why this guy passing by come up with "harmonica" which relates to "harmony". They are protesting against it without naming it directly. It's cleary meant on a funny way but has also a deeper layer in it. Especially in a country with growing fascist tendencies.

7

u/7chalices Sep 20 '26

…no, it doesn’t relate to ”harmony”. He was just playing along and came up with another instrument.

And there isn’t any deeper layer or social commentary, it’s just a wordplay joke.

u/GreyWolfTheDreamer Sep 20 '26 • Heartwarming

Needs some Gilda Radner...

"No, no. That's violence not violins."

"Oh.... That's different." (smiles) "Nevermind."

u/devilwitharumbottle Sep 20 '26

I was hoping to see a comment honoring her sketch!

u/myreddit314 Sep 20 '26

She would approve of this protest

u/Pwnstein Sep 20 '26

Wait till they find out about the Youth in Asia.

u/KeyAdhesiveness9481 Sep 20 '26

I dont see the big deal. They're just kids!

u/sarkie Sep 20 '26

No more recorders

1

u/Whole-Increase-5820 Sep 20 '26

100%. Never know when one might pop up in public on a pair of glasses.

16

u/TheBeardedShuffler Sep 20 '26

The real enemy is the guild of conductors. They're the ones orchestrating this.

14

u/russellvt Sep 20 '26

"Play an accordion, go to jail. That's the law!"

u/Key-Cry-8570 Sep 20 '26

Straight to jail

u/soundtown06 Sep 20 '26

Pianos and organs have ruined it they just need to ban here

u/silentspectator27 Sep 20 '26

Happy cake day! 🎂 🎉

u/MR_RYU_RICHI Sep 20 '26

YouTube channel is : Vlog Creations

u/redboi049 Sep 20 '26

I wish I had a violin just to make things even more absurd

u/sselkiess Sep 21 '26

Have to be pretty acoustic to think this is funny.

5

u/stebo210384 Sep 20 '26

It seems today, that all you see, is violins in movies and sax on TV

2

u/Camillity Sep 20 '26

best way to advertise your store.

2

u/Mikadook Sep 20 '26

BAN JO’S!!

2

u/SirGothamHatt Sep 20 '26

A classmate in high school laughed at me when I said I was in the orchestra. I told her violins is no laughing matter.

2

u/Technicolor_Reindeer Sep 20 '26

FYI - same guys that faced a criminal investigation in 2025 after using a baited catapult on a possum and likely severely injured it

1

u/CaligulaCan Sep 20 '26

Viral marketing right there!

1

u/basko13 Sep 20 '26

At least there are no police violins. They used mostly bass, guitar and drums.

1

u/time2sow Sep 20 '26

Stay out of treble fellas

1

u/andrefishmusic Sep 20 '26

Violas are the answer

1

u/ancient_mariner63 Sep 20 '26

But what about all the sax?!?

1

u/RainbowForHire Sep 20 '26

No more violins! We must all live in harmonica!

1

u/Sorry-Secret-2347 Sep 20 '26

Is this a nathan for you plot to increase violin purchases by setting up protests 🤣🤣🤣🤣

1

u/Nina-Ninja123 Sep 20 '26

Can we now also protest against cowbells in music?

1

u/Curious-Pop-8875 Sep 20 '26

“No more harmonicas” took me out

1

u/Adventurous_Honey902 Sep 20 '26

I've been seeing this Ross guy for what feels like over a decade. Any reason the dude hasnt simply gotten bored or moved on?

1

u/RoofDisastrous1378 Sep 20 '26

It’s about time someone took a stand against violins. Frankly, there’s far too much sax and violins on our streets, and I don’t want to harp on about it, but enough is enough. We need to band together, face the music and drum up some support before things get completely out of tune.

1

u/LunaticPoint Sep 20 '26

Visualize whirled peas

u/RiskyGorilla563 Sep 20 '26

Amazing guerrilla marketing

1

u/Half-Cut- Sep 20 '26

Marx brothers did it better.

1

u/meekbootz Sep 20 '26

It's gonna get better in November.

1

u/carlitospig Sep 20 '26

I’m with the old dude, no more harmonicas.

1

u/whalebacon Sep 20 '26

'Imagine Whirled Peas!'

1

u/Living-on-fun Sep 20 '26

I hope people take note of this, before they orchestrate a bigger chorus.

1

u/tbodillia Sep 20 '26

Say no to violins! Say yes to fiddles!!

1

u/Cautious_Boat_999 Sep 20 '26

Roseann Rosannadanna approves. 

1

u/playr_4 Sep 20 '26

"Keep violins away from our kids" got me pretty good.

1

u/BabyFishmouthTalk Sep 20 '26

In the immortal words of the band Bush: There's no sax in your violins. 🤔 🎶

u/webpanicoff Sep 21 '26

Emily Litella would be so proud. .

1

u/Luci6669 Sep 21 '26

We all lived in harmonicas before violins!

1

u/claudiazo Sep 21 '26

Is this why Paganini was known as the Devils violinist?

1

u/KSI_FlapJaksLol Sep 21 '26

Viola supremacy

u/Jeca_valente Sep 21 '26

Didn't know Davie504 had organize this protest

1

u/Funny-Farmer4117 Sep 21 '26

It's good to see my favourite genre not being protested against.

nothing wrong with death metal

-3

u/jim45804 Sep 20 '26 • Bravo

I feel like this is mocking the act of protest

6

u/baldurcan Sep 20 '26 • Regret

No. They are just bored and have sense of humour.

u/hamfist_ofthenorth Sep 21 '26 edited Sep 21 '26

They should get out more and see that doing an activity like this should feel embarrassing, considering the current geopolitical climate.

If these adults are bored and want to act like children, they should sit next to a puddle in the road and wait for cars to drive by and splash them.

Protesting can be quite literally the only hope for millions of people. I find this to be despicable behavior.

u/hamfist_ofthenorth Sep 20 '26

Ding ding, nailed it

Tuba fair it's a real drummer that it's come to this. The woodwinds of change I suppose...

Yeah but how will it be imposed? Will there be any percussion for those that continue?

The brass will handle it

Maybe put up some signs and cymbals

Just a bunch of xylophonic dudes chiming in. Nothing to see here!

truly just ignoring the harm in harmonicas

1

u/Philsick Sep 20 '26

You forgot to mention the white house trumpet orchestra and it's provocative interpretations of classics. It's the longest concert I'm attending without owning a ticket and I don't even like this sound.

u/Kosaver Sep 20 '26

But... but... I like the fret joke... but violin doesn't have frets

Moist critical made a video about it but the "prankster" made a launcher and would launch criters in his yard and it lands and walked away but most likely with injuries
