  • Uhhhhhh.

  • *burps*

  • Almost threw up.

  • Hey guys and happy new year.

  • So this is the first video of the year.

  • I know I'm a little bit late.

  • But as usual, I went back home to Hawaii for the holidays.

  • And I had a lot of time to really reflect on myself.

  • Like most people do around new years.

  • And I realized that I need to make some changes.

  • Most of you guys already know I've been doing Youtube for such a long time and during that time I'd say 95% of the content was always relatively clean.

  • I mean not like Disney channel clean, but I've never shown my drugs and alcohol, or anything too sexual.

  • I haven't even cursed on this channel without it getting bleeped.

  • At least recently, I might have done something when I was younger.

  • I mean, I can't even say the s-word and they say that on tv now.

  • You know the word *bleep*, see what I'm talking about, it's a bunch of bull *bleep*

  • This is what happens when I try to curse here.

  • It's not even my choice.

  • Son of a *bleep*

  • Holy *bleep*

  • What the *bleep*

  • Oh *bleep*

  • Surprise mother *bleep*

  • AVADA KEDAVRA!

  • Huh, I guess I can curse.

  • *bleep*

  • See what I have to go through?

  • It's time for a change.

  • You see this? This is why it gets censored.

  • This is 'PG MODE.' That's what I'm on right now. It's ON.

  • Look at Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, even Selena Gomez.

  • They all switched off their "PG" switch and went from clean innocent stars to the drug using, bucket peeing, sexy, sexual, sex superstars.

  • And at first everyone thought, including myself, well that-- they're just ruining their career.

  • And now they're doing better than ever because that is what people want, which is why it is my time to break free.

  • By the end of this video, I'm gonna be switching this off for good. I'm not gonna kill myself. I don't know why I did this.

  • No more Mr. Nice Ryan. No more clean innocent videos. It's time.

  • It's time to get a little edgy.

  • *flips switch*

  • *flip* *flip* *flip*

  • Huh? Guess it doesn't work.

  • Oh, you thought this was gonna be a vlog?

  • *crash*

  • That's something the old Ryan Higa would do.

  • Guess what? The old Ryan Higa, he's dead.

  • This is the new and improved Ryan Higa, The Edgy Ryan Higa, Redgy Higa.

  • By the time you finish this video, this switch is going off for good.

  • Welcome to "How to be Edgy."

  • I'm Redgy.

  • Welcome to "How to be Edgy." I'm Redgy.

  • Yeah, I introduced myself twice, but that's the first lesson of being edgy.

  • We ain't afraid of the rules.

  • Edgy people, we don't do what's normal.

  • We don't do what society tell us to do.

  • I mean, look at me. Look at what I'm wearing right now.

  • See this jacket? The zipper don't go straight at the middle like every single other jacket.

  • It goes a little to the right. Why? 'Cause *beep* society. That's why.

  • Now, look at my pants. Ripped. No big deal, right?

  • They're just ripped pants. Well, guess what.

  • These pants are ripped on purpose.

  • And I know you guys can't see it right now, but I had some bad milk with my cereal today and now I got diarrhea.

  • Guess what color underwear I still chose to wear.

  • That's right.

  • Oh, kinda pull that too hard.

  • Now, if you really want to be edgy, you gotta commit.

  • Just wearing edgy clothes is nothing 'cause you can change.

  • But if you really commit like how I did, that's a sign of a true edgy person.

  • See my hair color?

  • Not even my real hair color. I dyed it.

  • Well, I mean I sprayed it.

  • But it's not gonna come off until I shower later.

  • And these piercings?

  • Yeah, they might not be real,

  • but they still will leave a really dark red mark when I take them off later.

  • And most importantly, if you want to be edgy, you gotta have tats.

  • Can you grab that sleeve?

  • Thank you.

  • Every edgy person you can think of has tats.

  • And I know you guys think you know what I'm gonna say, but no.

  • These tats, these are real.

  • These are real temporary tattoos.

  • And they're all edgy.

  • These are tattoos that nobody gets.

  • This Chinese character right here?

  • It's in Japanese.

  • I can't even read Korean.

  • Tell me how many people are brave enough to get something like that.

  • Well, how about this one?

  • A lot of people get this tattoo because they love their mom.

  • But I got this one, 'cause...from when I punch my mom in the heart.

  • Or even all of these.

  • So edgy the stories behind the tats didn't even happen yet.

  • This is the story of when I got a copyright claim from Disney.

  • Alright. Now that you look the part and dress the part, here's the final step before you can turn this bad boy off and start to say words like *bleep*.

  • All you gotta do is act the part.

  • 'Cause edgy people, we live on the edge all the time.

  • Like right now, I'm literally sitting at the edge of my seat.

  • When I sleep, I sleep at the edge of the bed.

  • And my bed is at the edge of the room,

  • which is at the edge of my house,

  • which is located at the edge of Las Vegas,

  • which is at the edge of Nevada, near the edge of the USA.

  • And the USA, as we all know is on the edge of bankruptcy.

  • But we don't care, 'cause edgy people-- we take risks.

  • Forget the consequences. Just Nike it.

  • Just Shia Labeouf it. Just do it!

  • Oh, it's the law to wear your seat belt when you're at the wheel?

  • Pssh. Put my arm around it like it's no big deal.

  • Oh, mom made spaghetti tonight?

  • Pssh! I still wear a shirt that's white.

  • Oh, you have to wait an hour after you eat to go swim?

  • Pssh! I just wait 45 minutes and jump in.

  • Or the way the Chipotle says guacamole costs extra?

  • Pssh! How much extra?

  • A dollar eighty.

  • Pssh! Okay, no, then.

  • Okay, yeah, maybe that last one wasn't that edgy, but if you were to continue the scene...

  • Oh, do you want lettuce?

  • What, does that cost more too?

  • - No. - *bleep* yeah.

  • (coughs, gags)

  • All right. Now that you know all the steps, you know how to look the part, you know how to dress the part, you know how to act the part.

  • You know what time it is. Time to go edgy Redgy forever.

  • And now for the very first time, I will be debuting the very first uncensored curse word on this channel.

  • And it goes a little something like this.

  • (clears throat)

  • Sh--

  • Okay, yeah, this video was a vlog. That didn't actually really happen. I wouldn't actually break a real laptop.

  • Anyway, for all of you that actually thought that I was serious for a second, I'm not really Redgy.

  • There is no Redgy. I'm not gonna change for all the people that thought I was serious.

  • Look, the truth is, I am getting older.

  • And usually, with people in the entertainment industry, as they get older, they intentionally try to get edgier so that they can appeal to an older audience.

  • And honestly, I just, I don't want to do that.

  • Look, if my stuff gets edgier over time, because I'm getting older, that's fine.

  • But I'm not gonna force it just to appeal to a new audience.

  • I'm not getting edgy. I'm not really changing my image.

  • In fact, because I know there's already gonna be a lot of you who didn't get the sarcasm in this video,

  • all those bleeps you heard in this video that you thought you were offended by weren't actually curse words.

  • I actually didn't even curse once throughout filming this entire video.

  • This is what it really sounded like without all the bleeps.

  • You know, the word "I"? It's a bunch of bull will!

  • Son of a never!

  • Holy curse.

  • What the on?

  • Oh, this.

  • Surprise, mother channel.

  • Because.

  • 'Cause if society, that's why.

  • Can start saying words like "I."

  • Did yeah!

  • You see? I wasn't cursing at all.

  • And if you put all those bleeps I said together, it's actually a message that I created to help assure you guys that I'm not really changing.

  • And if you didn't already catch it, this is what it says.

  • I will never curse on this channel because if I did...

  • If I did, that shit would be crazy!

  • I'm sorry. I had to do it. I had to.

  • And now for all of you that still want to complain, please see my video, Censorship Makes No Sense.

  • Have a good night. I'll see you next year. I'm just kidding. I'll see you guys this year.

  • I'll see you guys probably next week. Okay, bye.

Uhhhhhh.
