My dream room is a secret witchy library. Big part of the dream is in fact keeping it a secret behind a bookcase door and disappearing for hours without anybody knowing where I’ve gone until one day my theoretical kids are given a key for their 13th birthday or something to mark their transition into teenagedom.

2026-03-12 02:52:02 +0000 UTCI remember adoring 27 dresses when i was in grade seven? (I was wee) and for the longest time I thought that she ~was~ a wedding planner and now that you've shone the light, I'm just sitting here like ".. oh."

2026-01-13 10:02:09 +0000 UTCI really love that Jenny said “Army” every time instead of “Marines” because it’s the branch most likely to get mad about the distinction, AND this is behind a paywall so they can’t even oorah in the comments without having paid to do so

2026-01-10 03:18:59 +0000 UTCYes, a "no military"/active duty military/first responders dating policy is a thing some people have irl. I come from a family with a long history of military service, and I've heard some of the women in my family talk about not wanting relationships with service members or first responders (unless they've transitioned to desk work) because of the all worry they saw their mothers go through. I think having strong feelings about that (one way or the other) is more of a thing Army/Marine/etc brats go through though specifically because of their upbringing

2026-01-07 19:52:24 +0000 UTCMy favourite rom couple hands down is Evelyn and Rick from The Mummy. I'm not sure if it's considered a romcom though, it's more rom adventure

Emily Freedman
2025-12-05 18:17:52 +0000 UTCMy secret room is definitely like a Power Rangers armory-style room, where I have screen used and replica props, suits, and ideally, some of the vehicles 😬

2025-11-14 09:53:48 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be a display/storage space for all the crafting projects I get inspired to make but ultimately have no use for. Just this morning I saw a tiktok of a massive crochet crocodile plush. It's so big that it takes over a whole three seater couch. It would be so cool to make that and have it but also so inconvenient. I would love to have a secret room for that kind of stuff.

2025-11-09 14:59:31 +0000 UTCMy pro-baller secret room in my mansion would be comprised of a tight Escheresque maze that holds books and snacks. Little nooks sequestered everywhere so that when you find a book you want to enjoy, you have only to roll a couple feet to find your butt in a perfectly molded literary womb. But you need to pay $10 each time you want to leave the room, for any reason. Judge me.

2025-09-22 00:01:39 +0000 UTCI want a secret animatronic room. I already have animatronics all over my house but hiding them in a room like behind a bookcase that reveals itself in a cool way sounds fun
Tabitha Griffin
2025-09-19 19:22:26 +0000 UTCmy secret room would be a fully decorated fantasy wizard's greenhouse with lots of light and plants and various orbs to ponder and real oil paintings i've commissioned, but the main aspect would be a pristine roller rink.... don't enter my secret roller derby druid attic!!!!!!!!!!!!! just dont do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
beeps
2025-09-18 22:52:59 +0000 UTC@JennyNicholson as a a Luke who was in the Army….and by Army, I mean Navy; you nailed the explanation! Also how do you know enough about Military culture to know frivolous marriages are a thing, but not know the difference between the Army and Marines? I know this comment sounds really sarcastic, but I didn’t mean it that way…Love your videos!!!!

2025-09-17 06:26:01 +0000 UTCliterally the only room that wouldn’t be bad to conceal is a weed farm, because its understandable to want to keep secret

2025-09-12 22:27:38 +0000 UTCI think it would be to cool to have a home version of the technology that Disney uses for O Canada. A circlevision experience. Where I could lay on comfy furniture in the middle of the room and turn on the Amazon rainforest or the Alps or a forest or the Sonoran Desert or Cairo or wherever. Not a traveling through the space, but just projecting it so I can feel like I'm sitting on a terrace overlooking the sea on Santorini or whatever I want.
Nomascus gabrielli
2025-09-01 22:09:16 +0000 UTCin my secret room: from wall to wall pictures pasted onto it of roxy lalonde from homestuck. in the middle of the room will be several life sized, quarter sized, and half sized sculptures and 3D custom models of roxy lalonde from homestuck. nu pastel portraits of roxy lalonde from homestuck will be displayed all around the room done by me cuz thats my fav traditional medium. idk do u get the vibe? roxy lalonde room. pretty obvious. possible creep factor is realism portraits of what i think roxy would look like irl so maybe youd just think i have a weird obsession with an individual in my life idk

Miss Moxie
2025-08-25 21:10:20 +0000 UTCI think that the main character of 27 Dresses isn't obsessed with weddings so much as she is just a big pushover. That's her major character flaw, which is why she goes along with everything her sister was doing, and why she said yes to two weddings on the same night. She does love weddings, the opening scene of her as a kid establishes that. But it's more about her saving the day and wanting to be seen as helpful and kind. Even if that means putting other people's wants and needs ahead of her own.
Kat
2025-08-25 17:05:42 +0000 UTCI think a secret room that's just a study/library that you enter through a bookshelf would not be creepy cause you'd go through and be like "oh yeah, this is what a secret room is obviously, this is whimsical and fun and mysterious but not scary
Jaymes Valentine Walker
2025-08-25 06:50:58 +0000 UTCNon-creepy secret room idea: secret political or criminal conspiracy. So, like, The Ladykillers, or what Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society have been doing for 40 years. Whatever else it is, it's not creepy.

2025-08-22 23:00:01 +0000 UTCI've been told by people more familiar with the US military than I am that it's a common joke that if you're a woman visiting a base, you'll be married by the time you leave because all the soldiers want those sweet benefits. It's crazy that the movie portrays this as such a huge deal that everyone has qualms about. I mean the movie just seems awful over all, that scene where they harrass the poor waitress at the bar just immediately wiped any romantic potential in my eyes. Just awful. Clearly whoever wrote this just loves the military and wanted to fantasize about taming a shrew or whatever.
Silky
2025-08-21 23:58:51 +0000 UTCI assumed the secret room would be like a 50 shades of gray kink playroom type thing. Which I think is actually the least creepy type of secret room you can have, because if it's a sex thing at least I immediately understand why it's a secret
Katherine Harrison
2025-08-18 20:00:24 +0000 UTCUnfortunately my secret room would be full of Hatsune Miku figures

I would desperately want to show EVERYONE all of my snakes whenever they came over!!

2025-07-30 21:31:52 +0000 UTCI’ve actually been avoiding watching this one because EVERYONE trashes You’ve Got Mail and it’s one of my all time favorite comfort movies. So hearing that you also like it and quote it endlessly with family was a huge relief, although I was willing to hear your hot takes on it if you didn’t like it haha! I made a video of random stuff my mom and I quote for a Mother’s Day gift and a HUGE chunk of it was stuff from this movie alone, it’s a household classic

2025-07-05 20:47:33 +0000 UTCI think I did watch You've Got Mail maybe when we used to rent movies from the video store growing up. But when I was in college studying musical theater in the early 2010s someone introduced me to the musical She Loves Me, and described it as adapted from the same source material as You've Got Mail. Like as though of course I'd have heard of this famous movie even if I didn't know the musical. So it's interesting that it's considered obscure itself.

randa
2025-07-02 19:29:33 +0000 UTCI understand what you mean but I do think it’s possible to be a very, very social butterfly with friends from different periods of life (your college friends vs. your work friends vs. your childhood friends) also my interpretation is just that she has horrible horrible boundaries so she said yes to both weddings but she wanted to preserve the magic of both weddings so she devised the whole scheme
Taylor Garcia
2025-06-30 23:06:16 +0000 UTCRunaway Bride is a bad concept for a romcom but a great concept for a character study centering on loneliness in the modern era
Taylor Garcia
2025-06-30 22:02:19 +0000 UTCI have two secret rooms I’d want.. a mirror collection room cuz I love mirrors, and a human sized cat tree room/hamster tube room where I could climb into comfy cubbies and nap… presumably I could combine the rooms… would need at least a skylight window cuz I hate the idea of spending a long period of time in a room without windows or natural light of any kind.
Cammi Kemonochu
2025-06-26 18:19:57 +0000 UTCI’m late to the party and have a very typical answer, but i’d want a secret miniatures room. Train sets. Tiny farms with tiny animals. Theme parks and city blocks with working electricity. Swing-open dollhouses. Maybe even fantasy sets that require some thought to make structurally possible. Real-life minecraft/sim game room basically.

Ali Tucker
2025-05-29 23:29:45 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be an indoor, peaceful (i.e. childfree and probably sound proof) oasis. There would be some kind of water - a pond, waterfall or both - with a designated reading area as well as a separate listening area with a lot of my headphone/audio equipment collection safely stored but easily accessible. Plus a mini fridge with drinks and snacks. So far, so normal - right? Then the room would be adorned with my favorite succulents and carnivorous plants….and I’d have attractive, but species-appropriate, habitats for some of my favorite reptiles and invertebrates. Also a high quality sound system to set the ambiance. Anyone who found my secret room would know a lot more about me but be left with an infinite number of questions. 🤷♀️

I pray you one day do a video on what i call the Mungoverse (hugh grant cinematic universe) bc looking at his entire filmography set against each other is insane the guy has like maybe three distinct modes of acting but they slap every time
Jimbo
2025-05-28 18:31:51 +0000 UTCMine would probably be a private movie theater, with a collection of all the movies I could possibly want, but in their most collectable version like steelbooks, criterion collection etc.
Nate Rehkopf
2025-05-26 19:07:09 +0000 UTCAgreed that Hugh Grant is at his best in rom coms when he is in shy, hesitant, nerdy depressed mode, rather than cocky “charmer”. Two other movies where he has that persona that I like, though neither is a traditional rom com: The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill and Came Down a Mountain, and Sense & Sensibility
Janiebe
2025-05-26 13:20:49 +0000 UTCThe worst part of “the Prince and Me” is when she takes of her shoes to dance barefoot with a broom across the floor of the dingy dark dive bar where she works. Though possibly this shows she was meant to be a princess all along… impervious to vomit and crushed up peanut shells when overcome by the need to prance about.
Audrey Lopata
2025-05-17 00:02:50 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be one of those liminal town scenes that you'll occasionally stumble on in museums. Like, it would just be a quaint little American main street with a faux sky that transitions from day to night and plays constant looping sounds of horse clopping, cricket chirps, and the occasional firework. I've always found these types of scenes equal parts unnerving and peaceful. The only caveat to this secret room is that I probably wouldn't be able to keep it secret for very long, because I'm too much of a chicken to populate the shops with mannequins and, knowing me, I'd get too lonely after a while. How long does it have to stay secret? Can I only let my basketball boyfriend inside, or can I let in more people as time goes on? I want to host movies for the little league team in the cinema and have pie eating contests in the town square, both of which aren't solo activities.

John Alonzo
2025-04-28 15:05:18 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be an elaborate bathroom. Huge comfy tub, a fridge, big TV, all of the bubble baths and bath bombs and salts. Candles everywhere. Led lights to change the mood. It would have to be secret because I'm a basket ball man and my teammates would make fun of me for my elaborate self care room. They would know about my love for being submerged in hot water though
Alysha Troxell
2025-04-28 02:16:40 +0000 UTCAnyway I'm sure someone has said this but my secret room would be a plain room filled only with the Buzzy animatronic.
Timothy Nelson
2025-04-28 01:55:54 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be a storage unit full of childhood memorabilia and family heirlooms that I don't have much use for, but would break my mom's heart if I actually got rid of it all. It's a secret because how do you explain that to someone?
Lucia Pacciola
2025-04-27 07:01:21 +0000 UTCI want my secret room to be an outside area. The door will open to a secret secluded outside area. It is actually an exit
Danny Hilzenrath
2025-04-26 18:01:24 +0000 UTCYes, it actually received new claims on a couple other clips which also have to be disputed. Which concerns me because I was planning to upload a Barbie preview and the next ramble this week and having 3 struck videos at once can jeopardize a small channel. I'm considering removing it and trying a new upload, or I could give up putting clips in the new ramble

I was a teenager when my mom brought it home as our first ever film on DVD and the whole family watched it. And now, in the modern day, my brother and I joke about how today Tom Hanks' chain store would be cast as the victim of Amazon.
Nimnul
2025-04-25 20:17:32 +0000 UTCso the runaway bride - was julia roberts roped into that with some sneaky underhanded contract, or blackmail? because the plot sounds like a julia roberts biopic, including her ditching the groom keiffer surherland and running off with the best man jason patric. if only i had the motivation to go look up the timeline of when the movie was released and compare to her relationships.

2025-04-25 19:30:11 +0000 UTCIt was really funny going from this video into the ramble from the previous month (I'm behind okay), because that video starts with a foam forest scenario. It's the Jenny foam forest cinematic universe spanning both space and time.
Dana Stoof
2025-04-24 16:08:18 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be full of thrifted scavenged junk I'm in the process of cleaning and repairing. I have this secret room. It is very messy. That's why it's secret.
TalkieSoundBox
2025-04-24 14:43:50 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be a stingray pit. Just a giant hole with some stingrays and other aquatic life. The water will have loop de loops so the stingways will have some stimulation but I want to amass my own pet stingray.

2025-04-13 01:26:18 +0000 UTCJenny, you need to watch the 1990 television version of the Phantom of the Opera with Charles Dance and Teri Polo - the phantom has a huge, secret, underground forest room with stuffed animals!! Maybe just... know that it's still creepy. Sweet, but creepy.
Emma
2025-04-12 23:49:42 +0000 UTCYou've Got Mail is such a good litmus test because it's infuriating to gay women and anyone healthy enough to say no to a terrible man, but it makes women like me go, "it do be like that sometimes." It was like that for Nora Ephron- the shit she had to put up with. And we're socialized to put up with it! If that movie infuriates you, you're lucky.
Iris
2025-04-12 20:28:50 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be a room for crafting sewing and knitting/crochet. It would have a comfy couch for knitting/crochet, and a really good set up for my sewing machine. But really, the main thing would be a lot of shelves and storage for all my yarn and fabrics. And because this is a secret room and no one else is allowed entrance (and in this scenario I am rich), then I can accumulate all the amazing fabrics and yarn I find, and will totally use for some project some day, with out being judged by my family for not using them and mostly just storing them, and occasionally pulling them out to think of all the lovely projects I will make with them some day.

2025-04-12 03:50:11 +0000 UTCMy wife's secret room: fish. No further explanation provided. My secret room: a catio jungle gym as a dedicated play space for our 4 cats. Secret because it would be filled with an inordinate amount of fancy cat trees and expensive furniture that would be too embarrassing to show a guest.
Jay
2025-04-12 02:41:09 +0000 UTCmy ideal secret room would be something like what kim possible has or hannah montana or lane in gilmore girls, where you flip a cupboard and then there's a whole other set up. It would be like a cool secret ghost and folklore and kim possible esque, buffy vibe of a library and myth busting layer but like *tasteful* :')
Noah Pittrof
2025-04-11 07:52:06 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be a doll customizing room where I take apart dolls and create new, cool dolls. I already have that now and it already scares people. It's in my closet, which I call my cloffice. (Closet + office.) There are a lot of doll parts all over the place. It doesn't need to be secret to be scary, but that would up the creepiness by a lot.
Sunny
2025-04-11 06:29:35 +0000 UTCMy ideal secret room is my own indoor theme park. Which is both wildly unrealistic and extremely creepy to find as the live in girlfriend. I've always had dreams of being in a mall or theme park alone and they've always been really comforting to me, but not sure it translates to irl at all 😅

2025-04-09 19:10:17 +0000 UTCMy secret room would be a basement pool with cave vibes and low lighting. It would be like a spa but also have slides. I can only imagine this would be terrifying (like the Pools game where you walk around liminal empty pools)
