―Erik
Top 10 Erik Moments is the 141st lesson of Internet Comment Etiquette. It was released on December 27, 2021.

## Summary

Erik introduces the top 10 Erik moments of the year and gets upset that YouTube hasn't sent him a plaque for one million subscribers. Then Quarantine Erik points out that Bob Dole died even though Erik had already had this discussion with Lady Hair Erik.

**10. When Erik Ignored a Bunch of User Submitted Intro Songs**

Erik notices that after he asked his students to make a new intro song to replace the Rough Draft Intro Song, he only looked at three of the responses. He looks at some more of the songs that his students created, including some very good ones and some very messed up ones. He leaves a list of his favorite songs in the video description.

**9. The Death of Yahoo Answers**

Erik looks back to when Yahoo Answers closed down and reveals what the last Yahoo Answer was. He explains that now the only question and answer site is Quora. He goes to Quora, helps someone get something out of their butt, and then asks about his one million subscriber plaque.

**8. When Erik Never Got His Million Sub Plaque**

Erik pours himself a drink and gets upset about his one million subscriber plaque. He figures that the Baby Shark channel got theirs, and he sees that even Bill Gates got one. Then there are a bunch of weirdos in the comments under the Bill Gates video so Erik adds a comment of his own. Then Erik tries to speed things up because he has other stuff to do.

**7. Solving Problems with Farts**

Erik remembers all the times he solved problems with farts. He send fart recordings to flat Earthers on Telegram,[src] sends fart recordings to Donna on Telegram,[src] and destroyed the Moon with a fart.[src] Then Erik realizes that was only three times.

**6. When Erik Got Sponsored by Noom**

Erik talks about how he uses Noom and tells his students to go to noom.com/bigmoney.

**5. Bill Cosby Never Blocked Erik on Twitter**

Erik expresses disappointment that he lost his game of Get Blocked by Cosby. He looks at some of the tweets that he sent to Cosby, but points out that Cosby has deleted his Twitter account. Erik speculates why he deleted his account, wondering if it was his guilt, the replies to all his tweets about his guilt, or that he might go back to court.

**4. Looking Like a Dirty Hobo Wizard for Half the Year**

Erik reads some of the comments about the beard that he grew for the first half of 2021. He explains that it was originally just supposed to be through the COVID-19 pandemic, but then he realized that was never going to end. Then he thought he could incorporate it in an artpiece about being stuck inside, but Bo Burnham beat him to it. Then Erik decided to cut it off because he got one million subscribers. He gets upset again about not having a one million subscriber plaque.

**3. Finding out VR has Friendly Fire Enabled**

Erik remembers all the time that he was playing Pavlov and shot his teammates or dropped hand grenades next to them. Then he goes into Pavlov and asks some people what they thought about that Erik moment. Then he drops a grenade by their feet.

**2. The January 6th Insurrection**

Erik remembers when terrorists laid seige to the United States Capitol in January, declaring it an Erik moment.

**1. Seriously Where's my Fucking Youtube Plaque?**

Erik admits that comment etiquette is always going to get worse and that he's not going to accomplish anything. He quits YouTube because the game's rigged, since he's doing comment etiquette lessons instead of glitter pranks on thieves or giving away Lamborghinis. Then someone knocks on his door and he sees his plaque has arrived. He decides to keep making lessons and gets ready to make lessons next year and to go for two million subscribers.
