In a dystopian / post-apocalyptic world where the human race has been enslaved by a new world order which has banned anything and everything, including nothing, the Nothing Man meets you at an undisclosed location to offer nothing for you to sample and order, so that you can once again enjoy having nothing in your life.

New here to the Arkham Sanitarium/ Rift World lore? You can read more at my website: ephemeralrift.com/2018/09/23/...
If you are new to "ASMR" and/or my channel, welcome aboard and thanks for dropping by! The majority of videos I create, often in an unorthodox manner, are meant to help you relax, sleep, hopefully experience ASMR, and any other use that might help you find some peace of mind, concentrate, study, decompress, etc.
What is ASMR? Why, I'm glad you asked!
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. It's just a non-scientific, made-up term that a layperson came up with to describe the feeling characterized as a pleasant tingling sensation felt in various parts of the body (head, scalp, back, legs, etc.) in response to various visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps, but much more pleasant and without the uncomfortable chills.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally induce this sensation in the viewer, often referred to as "tingles". However, the videos also serve to provide a relaxing, calming, comforting and soothing experience for people beyond ASMR purposes. Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy these videos.
I experienced ASMR all throughout my life but no longer do as of a couple years ago. However, I still enjoy the hell out of creating these videos for anyone else that still experiences it or is just looking to relax, sleep, study, etc.
Best wishes,
E.R.

Somebody: hey what's that you're watching? Me: nothing, man
okay so normally the jokes under an ER video are splendid but this is the absolute peak i love it so much
Odysseus, is that you?
This is the most original joke ever WTFluff. How can any joke on KZhead be original?
I respect that joke dude. Made me giggle.
Shit gottem
"People call me the nothing man but YOU can call me whenever" Damn the nothing man is smooth.

I also heard the fast food man say this, or at least a variation of this.
“Where you going?” “I’m going to the nothing dealer. You want something?” “Yeah get me a jar of nothing.”
Me:He doesn't have jars
@@Twisted_Nuttt but he does tho
No he doesn't he's called the nothing man for a reason
@@Twisted_Nuttt but he literally has a jar in the video
Ok so that means that he's not the nothing bc he does have something

You should do one where you 'buy' or 'collect and dispose' of our banned items. The Buyer man.
Or, perhaps, the BANNING man!
@@corbanoT.V. I support this idea, i love antagonist ASMR
Or the 'something man'!
I believe that would be called The Government Man
What if there is a flip he makes a roleplay where he is buying from us because WE ARE THE MAN
You should do “The Trash Man” He inteoduces himself. He proceeds to open a plastic bag and pull pieces of trash he found out, and present each to you, describing why they are all so importnat to Him.
Danny DeVito would like to know your location
Oh god no
The video ends with the camera getting bashed over the head with a Trash can, and at the same time, ER is eating garbage.
@@IsabruhMoment he also wants to know if you have *E G G*
Yes.
"Imagine, if you will..." That iconic line ALWAYS gets me hyped to sleep, seriously
I just love the sense of humour of people, who like watching uncle Rift. Hyped to sleep...what an oxymoron to make! With that said, good night!
The nothing man : normal people : E.R fans : I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK !

Yes!
Why don’t you shut the fuck up?

And that is why he is both to be respected, and revered.

*TIMESTAMPS (from the description + some small descriptions by me)* 00:00:00 Intro - The Nothing Man talks with you about nothing. 00:08:09 Dessert - A fresh baked nothing brownie. The ingredients are top secret, gathered from the forest of nothing. 00:11:42 Beverage - A new type of beverage that the -world- multiverse has never seen, called "Nothing", made from the purest nothing. Sugar free, _zero calories._ 00:17:30 Books - Some books, that talk about nothing. All the books have plots that explore nothing, like the fear of nothing, or _being_ nothing. 00:27:41 Mixtape - A tape with a selection of various songs, that consist of nothing, of course. 00:33:22 Sticky notes - A pack of sticky not-hing. There's nothing written on the not-hing. No, really, _nothing_ is written on the not-hing. 00:38:11 Index cards - Just like the sticky not-hing, but not really sticky, and bigger. Then again, _nothing_ is written on all cards. 00:42:26 Can - A small and shiny can. It is full of nothing, but a _different_ kind of nothing, unlike nothing you have seen before. It makes some nice sounds. 00:46:46 Jar - A transparent jar that contains nothing bottled up. It makes sounds like nothing ever heard. You can also smell a pleasant aroma of nothing from inside it. 00:50:26 Key - A key that opens nothing. But not _just_ nothing: nothing in _particular._ 00:51:06 Twine - A piece twine with nothing at the ends. Yes, with nothing at _neither_ end. Very rare. 00:53:09 Medical instrument case - A case that makes a very pleasant sound. It's full of nothing. There's nothing inside, and there's _nothing_ taped at the back. You usually find medical instrument cases with medical instruments in it, so this one is quite rare. 00:55:33 Taking your order

Almost at a million subscribers Rift! I'm so happy to see you growing like you have been. Your ASMR is so quirky and interesting Let alone extremely relaxing and tingle inducing. Don't forget well made and high quality. Keep up your great work Rift!
It’s amazing how much Rift has changed over the years. I remember his Disney Land chocolates taste test video and now we’re here with the “nothing man” video. He’s really grown in remarkable ways and I almost feel like I’m in some sort of social experiment video. Keep up the amazing and most creative ASMR work on KZhead, ER!
Thought I’d seen everything, but I’ve actually seen nothing.
I appreciate this comment
Now I can't have that wonderful plate of nothing you cooked us. I'm sad now.

Nothing is back on the menu, boys!

But he doesn't have creativity. He only has Nothing.
I usually need something new every night for me to get tingles. This past week this is the only thing that does it for me. The strange story and the whispering are perfect
I literally cant get over these The (Name) Man videos! I watch every one and they all really enthrall me in the same way the first did. I love it.

Real talk, I've been following ER since he blew up on the reddits ages ago, and it's basically confirmed this guy's a warlock. I'm okay with that, because he's arguably the best in the ASMR game, but I feel he's even surpassed that. He's consistently challenging himself, he's consistently changing his game up,.and he's always entertaining. To me, he's one of the best content creators out there. There, I said it.
I always like your videos, especially role plays because you always kinda gave off the wise, mysterious shopkeeper vibe.😄
The moment you try to define nothing, you've filled it with something.

Me: Isn't it something? ER: NOTHINGG MAAANNNN
me : this is my life E.R : incredible it is totally nothing me: oh I know

This does make me miss the Candyman. The last two Candyman vids are still my favorite of the series. This one is ridiculous, and still thru talent, totally relaxing. I most appreciate his technique of focusing on whatever he is or isn’t working with. Every video, even one of holding nothing, he keeps his eyes focused on what he’s doing. That’s oddly satisfying. And one big PS: I feel desperately overdue for a fresh beaking...
