Anything that says “Don’t fucking watch” I have to watch because no one can tell me not to. Except when I saw “all of you” I was kicking myself in the ass saying, “Damn it. I should not have fuckin watched.” Now your naked ass will be in my mind forever. Jesus help me.
Oh yeah, one more thing bro. Were you scared that your neighbors were going to call the cops? Daring.
Micheal what the heck I dont want to see you naked!
Oh dammit I cant get it out of my mind dang it. Your one of the coolest guys around but dammit I didnt want to see your naked ass!
DON’T WATCH THIS FUCKING VIDEO! I WARNED YOU.
On. The. Floor.
That was fuckin’ brilliant!
jay and i were counting the days
waiting to see who would be the first to naked vlog.
i had my money on weagel.
BUT THAT’S BESIDES THE POINT HERE.
what you say is how i’m feeling now too.
am i here to entertain? why am i making videos?
to express and communicate and be heard
but do i do that for other people or myself or both i guess.
the funniest thing about this video is that instead of walking off camera,,,YOU WALK OUTSIDE.
who does that naked?
brilliant, amazing, gutsy.
right on verdi.
yes, fucking fantastic.
walk out that door.
there it is.
Mindless, insensitive, vulgar. Nice piece, Michael.
Well I stoped the vid when he started to take off his clothes but I know you liked that Ryanne jk anyways only verdi would do that!
For some reason the cottage cheese I was just eating seems really unappetizing. Huh.
Balls and all, you are awesome!
Fucking balls-out hilarious!
is it me or does videoblogging always seem like it is on the dege of exploding. Not just in numbers of folks doing it but what we are doing with it.
its just about all i think about. When I’m out in public I just wonder how I can Vlog every scenario.
So anyways, thanks Verdi for making me think.
holy shit verdi. the funniest part was you walking out the door. it’s all like that bad dream. except it’s not. ha!
walk outside naked. great exercise in metaphor.
Electrik Verdi, you are indeed.
You have soared and taken us with you, on your electrik wings of blue fire.
LOL. Right up until it was too late I was telling myself “no, he’s not going to … this is where it cuts to another scene.”
… I was wrong.
Hillarious.

Holy mother of pearl, now I’ve seen it all. (Literally.) Can’t believe you topped “Anarchy.” Can’t believe you walked out the f’in door!
You explode my brain.
For the record, Nathan Peters was actually the first vlogger to get naked.
PS - Shouldn’t you disclose that I paid you $100 to make this video?
Maybe the videos should have been called yin and wang instead of yin and yang.
I love you Verdi, so fuck you too; and I mean that in a very nice way.
Wow. What can I say that hasn’t been said already. I am inspired…
(speechless) …I feel as if I’ve been violated in so many ways -seeing nathan peters naked was expected, but you were my teacher and I was your student! …but other than that, !!STANDING OVATION!!

Verdi,
I finally got around to viewing your vlog. You crack me up. I wanna see the pics of the blue hair. Nice penis too by the way LOL !!!
What is it with vloggers? It seems like people are always pulling out their schlong to measure??
Best,
Cheryl Shuman
Oh my God Verdi. You’re my hero.
My anti geek friend hates it that you talk about vlogging all the time. I’m going to make him watch this.
Vlogger for life!
I almost fell off my chair I laughed so hard. That was definitely one of the funniest vlogs I’ve ever seen.
Okay.
4days ago a friend gives me a link to ROCKETBOOM on livejournal. BAM! I learn about FREEVLOG. (at this moment i’m either waiting too long for archive.org to spit out my video or it ate it) None the less. Seriously (this vblog & others i have recently seen makes me feel like I finally found the INTERNET.
Thanx for the tutorials, i’ll be posting soon and watching ALL your posts sooner!
~jcg aka mrmultiple2
What a classic!! :o) Right on.
The only thing that would have made this better would have been a shot of you on the outside trying to get back in only to find you had locked yourself out… funny shit!
i cant stop laughing… that was wonderful! standing ovation, indeed!
Kudo’s to you, Michael! I’d like to see Sam Donaldson, Diane Sawyers, Barbara Walters or any of those folks try that!
Everything you said is everything I’ve been thinking the past couple weeks.
I started this as a creative release, but after a few months I felt like I owed it to my audience to keep posting, which isn’t entirely a bad thing. It challenged me to make better videos. Now I think I’m just going back to making these things for myself. It was a lot more fun then. Doing things for the sake of creative release. You can be a lot more ballsy when you’re just doing it for fun. Ballsy. Thanks Verdi.
“So she coughed.”
“Coughing? Naked? It’s a turn-off, man.”
“Everything goes with naked.”
“When you cough there are thousands of unseen muscles that suddenly spring into action. It’s like watching that fat guy catch a cannonball in his stomach in slow motion.”
“You spoiled spoiled man. You know how much mental energy I expend just trying to picture women naked?”
“But the thing you don’t realize is that there’s good naked and bad naked. Naked hair brushing - good. Naked VLOGGING - bad.”
clearly an instant classic … demonstrates the power of video for making a point!
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
etc
it makes a change from being bombed…..
verdi for world leader
Ok… [can't stop laughing] Ok, that was definitely unexpected… you got me. I thought I had watched enought vlogs to be alble to semi predict what was gonna happen.
Well [sigh], um, I don’t know what else to say. Didn’t you say you were also doing vlogs for your daughters… ok, right, I really don’t what else to say.
…Pretty cool.
Though, for some reason, I thinking you probably ran right back inside and slammed the door before anyone saw you!
Then again, maybe not. You probably watz down the street, said hi to the neighbor as she was gardening, turned, went to the friendly corner shop for some chips and beverage, then back home with crumbs on the side of your corner… then realized you didn’t even turn off the camera.
Who know?
B
That was unforgettable experience…
…oh my god! I WASN’T expecting that.
shit. you’ve just took it up a notch…
- Ian
Yes, he did take it up a notch– but I’m not following that!
But really, Michael, think of the children!
You can’t do whatever the fuck you want. Your fucking lame for deleting my comments and then sending me an email about it. I though the point of your post was interesting until you showed how much of a pussy you are for getting negative feedback. If you want all your vblog friends to circle jerk over how cool this was, then I guess I am not part of the club…..You are gay
This is a better response:
Disable comments then. Censoring my comments is saying ” I don’t
want people to judge my work unless it strokes my ego” Leave it up
for discussion. Maybe I have a point that your self fufilling post
didn’t mean anything….As it didn’t since you censored me…..
Steven, I censored your comment not because it was negative feedback but because it was incredibly disgusting and childish. Obviously, as you can see from this video, I have a high tolarance for disgusting and childish. The piece of crap that you left here did not have any points for discussion other than maybe what an ass you are. If you really feel the need to say shit like that write a blog post about it and send a trackback. Then people can go debate your poor excuse for feedback over on your website.
Verdi, you are like a golden god. I am glad someone has the balls to get naked on a vlog. Lord knows I don’t.
Good job stretching the bounds of this medium!
BTW, don’t tell me what not to watch. Piss off, for Christ’s sake. I’ll watch what I damn well please.
not my favourite but sure you said what you wanted and in the way you wanted
great
Video blogging I believe allows you to share very personal things to others, and by george I think you have shared with us something very very personal.
I hope you won’t be offended if I do not respond in kind.
GREAT BLOG! I was just thinking about this the other day! Im glad you did it instead! im to young to be naked online!
WOW! Well expressed. We should have the latitude to do it the way we want, when we want, how we want any time we want, for whom we want. Right on!!!!
Think of the children!
What happens when all your daughters highschool and grade school friends and dare I say the brownie mothers see this?
…well, I’m sure the kids can handle nudity, but the Brownie mothers, damn, you’re going to be in so much trouble.
LOL!
Oh, so Rocketboom HAS to cover this. It’s a milestone. I could see this being the end clip on Rocketboom tomorrow.
Not only does it speak volumes about the tao of video blogging, but it also speaks about the freedom of video blogging. TO put it on Rocketboom would cause a great and wonderous uproar. (To bad Andrew’s got some hang ups about putting nudity on Rocketboom.)
Infamy I say!
Great gloriorious infamy!
One last thing. Has this gotten you any more paypal donations?
Agreed, the fucking best part was you walking out that door. Inspiring.
We are all madmen.
sure why not?
Note to self: Don’t take a video of yourself naked unless you trim the pubs..
That a daring man..
Well, I never saw so many supposedly hip males get so very upset with a little male nudity.
I could only get HTML but reading the comments was like seeing a psychological profile of each of the commentators.
I wonder how that same divide would develop over female nudity?
Now that’s a lot of information there…haha.
What you say coauld become a mantra in videoblogging. That’s just it. No one has control over us.
How long where you outside naked? jajajajaaaa that was so funny!!!
i got a nasty comment on my 28 days video today. my response was to send them here. so i watched this video again. YES! this video makes me feel better about making things and sharing my life and having to take open criticism about it sometimes. FUCK YOU. I don’t need you here to watch me. But you’re welcome to, so go ahead. Prude.
M V-Having had the pleasure of seeing you naked before, I am struck by how body phobic most viewers of you in your birthday can be. After all, the body, even a very cute one like yours is simply a skin and hair suit, a mask over the inner being that never changes, although the mask will age and so forth. Coping an attitude, rage/anger is a very effective way to protect yourself from the vulnerability implied in what is essentially a tender impluse, Best wishes to your wise father, love,
Uncle Sterling
hahah! That was bold. That’s how videoblogging should be. we are the media!!!!!!!! yay
In response to Ryanne’s question about who walks outside in the nude: my father has in the past… sometimes the paperboy didn’t throw the newspaper all the way to the door!
One time, my father went to grab the paper and he saw his neighbor glaring from across the street… so what did he do? My father stood up straight and waved at her! Hehehe…
Great to see you naked, Verdi… It’s amazing that you did this! Not even Ms. Kitka did that!
Look forward to seeing you (clothed) at the Vloggies
Casey
jeez, the first time I have seen it, you really were there first.
I missed this one back in 2005…
This one is timeless.
oh the fucking irony…..
dont watch the fucking video, so what do we all do.
We keep watching the fucking video. And commenting about the fucking video we were told not to watch.
bowing to the fucking master!
