Transcription of the famous video – Sam Hyde – Get a skill – text, lyrics and subtitles. Full script:
All right, gang. Hide Wars Episode XX—I don’t even know the episode number. We’ll call it XX, like in, you know, things that happen in 19XX. Look, if you’re playing EarthBound, you don’t know what year it is. It’s vaguely in the future. I want to talk about the single most important thing. Oh, it’s time. The single most important thing—all my wisdom, all of it—the most important thing in this life is to be red-pilled and to own the SHT out of libtards.
Listen, I saw a woman wearing a shirt with a happy little face on it, and I said, “Guess what, BTCH? There are only two genders.” The single most important thing—the single most important thing in life—is to be MGTOW. Never trust a BTCH. Always be on the defensive with a BTCH because she’s a dog. You shouldn’t even try to have sex. Just whack it.
This girl the other day was like, “Hey, Sam, you’re a really nice guy, and I really like what you do—your videos and stuff. Do you want to hang out?” Why? So you can steal my money, BTCH? MGTOW!
The single most important thing, okay? The single most important thing in life is to be alpha, and absolutely crush PSY all day, get cut and slit, and just tear up, crease all day long. And who gives a F what a BTCH thinks?
The single most important lesson in life: Be alpha at all times. Do you want to be a beta CCK, or do you want to be an alpha legend like myself—a lion? This is life’s most important lesson. Don’t be a beta cck. This is serious.
The most important thing in life is to always be striving, always be questioning: What lies beyond? What’s the most profound thing I could do at this moment?
Let’s actually divulge some information here. What is the most important red-pill alpha secret? Is it to be anti-gun control? Is it to be totally dismissive of women and relegate yourself to a life of p*rn? Is it to be red-pilled on everything? These are all important things. You’ve seen me talk about them. You know how I feel about these various red pills. I’m munching on red pills all day. I’m taking red pills left and right. I’m sucking them down.
Let’s walk down this way. This is what I’m gonna tell them—what the most important things are down here. So, in my humble opinion—okay, do your own research, take this with a grain of salt—I don’t know what I’m talking about. Rich? Yes. Drives a cool truck? Sure. Take this with a grain of salt. I’m just a guy. I’m a YouTuber. I don’t know what I’m talking about. Or maybe I do. But ask your dad. Ask your grandparents. Ask some male figure in your life to back this up or negate this advice. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I’m stupid. Maybe I’m a little beta cck psy sucking on blue pills all day.
The most important thing, in my opinion—take this with a grain of salt, don’t be mad at me, it’s just advice, do whatever you want—is to get good at something. I think it’s plenty important to have well-thought-out political stances on things. I think it’s plenty important to have well thought out political stance on things, I think it is plenty important to know about divorce rape, to know about the realities of biology, to know about what a BTCH will do to you once she gets her claws in. I think it’s well important to have fun playing video games, to have an active imagination, to have all kinds of hobbies and fun things and good little thoughts and things like that.
But it is my opinion that none of that SHT matters if you are unskilled. If you do not have something that you are good at, get good at whatever it is—welding, plumbing, car sales—it doesn’t matter. Develop some type of skill. Develop something that is a benefit to other people, that gives you self-confidence, that makes you a worthwhile person.
It’s pathetic to see somebody who has no skills. If it’s a woman, they get a pass, but if you really think about it, it’s even more pathetic to just skate by life not knowing how to do anything.
In young men—because boys and young men tend to be more feminine—they tend to expect things to be taken care of for them. They don’t have skills. They don’t have the ability to take care of themselves or other people. And so, that transition—going from boyhood and adolescence to adulthood, and having your role in the world totally change—is very difficult for a lot of people. I think that’s why a lot of people get caught up in collecting Funko Pop dolls, playing games, and doing very regressive type SHT. It’s because they really want to hold on to that lack of responsibility. They want to hold on to that until they’re 45 fckn years old.
That’s my main point: You have to step out of that comfort zone. You can’t be content with that life of ease because it’s a dead-end road. It leads to you becoming a worthless person. Like, really. Oh yeah, we were just looking at people’s Steam profiles, seeing how much time people we know had logged in games. You know, 500 hours in Left 4 Dead. This one dude we looked up had about 5,000 hours buried across various games. Think about that—5,000 hours. That’s time you could use to really make some serious progress toward whatever you want. And it’s really a fckn tragedy to burn that kind of time on something that’s not going to pay you back as you get older.
I’m starting to experience this now, but there definitely is a level of intelligence crystallization that happens—a level of solidification in the brain. And I don’t care what anybody else says about how you can learn this, or how it’s never too late to learn a skill, or how you can go back to college at age 40 and totally change your life and pick something up and make a new life for yourself. That’s complete fckn bsht. By the time you hit your late 20s, by the time you’re in your 30s, and definitely in your mid-30s, who you are as a person—your opinions, definitely your skill set—these things are all solidified. That’s done. By the time you’re 28, 29, forget about learning a new skill. It’s not gonna happen. Alright? I’m sorry to tell you this. Maybe you can get a hobby. You can press flowers.
Your ability to learn something to a level where it is professional, semi-professional, worth money to somebody else, able to use it to do something significant, not gonna happen. You are done. This is a core component of what it means to be a man, is having aptitude, having the ability to do something to make a mark on the world to make money, to you know, protect the people around you. To build something. This is not optional to being a man. If you missed this, you are not fully male. I am sorry to tell you this.
If you make it to age 40 and you’ve somehow missed this, you should wear panties. Don’t anyone get butthurt here about me being an elitist or something, like, “Sam thinks he’s so much better.” I don’t think I’m that great. I don’t think I’m able to produce some decent video content—okay, can we admit that? And that’s not what I’m telling you. I’m not telling you to be creative. I usually tell people to do the opposite. If people send me their music, I usually tell them to throw that out and pick something realistic.
What I’m saying is, you have to find something that you can develop into a thing. You know what I mean? I use the word thing—you know what I mean. My thing. If you can say with confidence, “Yeah, I’m a damn good heating system installer,” that’s miles and leagues better than somebody who’s got a level 90 in World of Warcraft.
Here’s what happens: People are like, “At no point in your development as a young person are you told this.” It’s never hammered into your head. I’m sure at some point, you might have had a teacher who was like, “Hey, you kids better wind up good at something. You better learn how to do something. Pull your pants up, you pathetic—” Maybe you had one teacher like that. But this isn’t something that’s hammered into people’s heads in the way that it should be.
So, a lot of people go through K-12, through high school, and then even through college. And college is the most pathetic part of it all because there’s this grand charade like it’s somehow going to turn you into a productive, generative, skilled, talented person. And it does the exact opposite—it drills total nonsense gibberish into your brain and makes you a complete idiot.
At no point in this entire cycle is there ever a moment where you’re like, “Maybe I should just get good at something regular and do something useful.” I remembered what I was gonna say, and that’s this: If you’re looking around your life and it’s medium messed up—okay, everything is medium messed up—then you should learn a skill. If you look around your life and everything’s really messed up, you might have to start not even with learning a skill. You might have to start with losing weight, getting off drugs, or weightlifting—one of those things.
My opinion is that you cannot go wrong getting good at weightlifting. You can’t fix all the things that are wrong in your life at once. You’re not going to be going to the gym every day, cutting down on calories, and getting off drugs and alcohol at the same time. You’re not that good. You got messed up in the first place—how do you think you can do all that at the same time?
Get good at weightlifting if you’re really messed up. Weightlifting is a skill. It’s building a skill, and that will teach you how to learn something. Going through that procedure of getting decent at lifting weights, learning how to do it, and knowing what not to do—that’s like training wheels for figuring out how to do something that has monetary value.
That’s it. That’s my tip of the day. That’s what I believe is the most important thing. If you’re messed up, if your life’s in shambles, if you’re really not enjoying your time on planet Earth, you should probably learn how to do something.
