I'm almost certain that whatever those blue things are they are probably completely insignificant.

First off, they seem to have orange tops. Gatorade bottles have orange tops, not Powerade.

Second, who leaves full bottles of sports drinks on the side of a road?
Once more, sitting upright?

Don't make no sense, dawg, yo.

If anything is significant about the blue nonsense, then let's assume Mira is right, and none of our laundry is safe.

EDIT: It's ONE blue thing. If you look closely, you'll realize that due to motion blurring everything in the frame capture is "doubled."

One blue thing and one green thing, yes.

And you are right...Powerade doesn't have orange caps. It's possible that the filmmakers messed up, though.

Doesn't matter. Who would put purple tape over everything? We don't know why. But powerade was in the bag, and why it was in there is a mystery. If it were obvious that this was powerade (if, for example, Vince picked it up and said "Someone left powerade here!") there would be no doubt that it's relevant to the story, precisely because Powerade was inexplicitely in the bag. And chances are that powerade plays some role in this.

But I concede that that wasn't supposed to be powerade.

Oh man, and I end up gone for a few days while shits going down.
Random theory about the underwater shots- could that be Jeff, Evan and Vince? I think it was postulated that it could be Evan went crazy and the other two are trying to subdue him, but what if it was the other way around? Evan saw that Jeff and Vince are being manipulated somehow and they turned on him?
And what bout the mystery tweet? TILT? Did we ever figure out where that applies to?

Has anyone else noticed the blue text in some of the older posts on the word house? What's up with that? Also, loving the avatars, lol. I was kinda like, wtf at first.

Still so much catching up...

Not sure which posts you're referring to, but...

House of Leaves is the book that was in Jeff's room.

Uh, guys? I'm serious, the post date/visit dates don't add up. Why would the channel say that EMH hasn't been on for a week, when they just posted a video 4 days ago?
Also, I thought that the Powerade was to weigh the bag down?

A lot of the older posts from a few pages ago had the word House in blue. I was wondering what that was about. Thanks for the link.

First off, the purple tape is meant to signify a connection to the plot. Why the crew chose purple is unknown to me, but you cannot compare that to freaking blue Powerade.

Okay, listen, that bag was a traveling bag of sorts. To have a sports drink in a bag that one travels with is not terribly unreasonable. People take Powerade with them when they travel in the forest to keep themselves hydrated.

People do NOT leave a completely full, capped, and sitting upright bottle of Gatorade OR Powerade on the side of the road. Especially graffiti highway.

This road is littered with trash, and that image is very very blurry. To immediately assume that it's a full, capped bottle of sports drink is very, very presumptuous.

I would also think that it's a good idea, presuming the clip you're looking at isn't spliced into a bunch of other things very rapidly, to assume that anything the camera simply passes over quickly is not something significant.

Remember when everyone made a big deal of that picture in Alex's bathroom that his camera probably accidentally just passed over as he was scrambling to dress his wounds? People were all like "it looks pretty creepy" when all they saw was a sepia toned blur. Further examination resulted in a general acceptance that the picture was just one of those old timey drawings/pictures of somebody urinating. Not that's terribly common in bathrooms but it's not something worth writing home about.

There is nothing significant about a blue object sitting on the side of the road that the camera doesn't give a second glance at.

I don't mean to be rude, but I'd rather not waste anymore time debating the canon of "the blue sports drink" just as everyone else doesn't want to continue debate over the validity of the two "leaked" vids.

I'm not saying the Powerade from the bag wasn't a clue of some sort, but I am saying that blue thing you're looking at isn't a sports drink and it isn't relevant.

Right, I recognize that it's probably not a Powerade bottle, but if it is, then it is highly unlikely it is there by accident. And therefore, is completely relevant to the plot.

And people do NOT leave purple tape everywhere. That's my point. I don't know why anyone would randomly leave Powerade there, but I don't know why half the things that have been happening have happened.

Presumptuous? It's what I saw. It's the first thing I thought. My mind went "Oh, powerade bottles!" and then I made the connection with the bag.

Why not? That's happened a bunch of times in this series. We see something that the cameraman doesn't. That's the fun in the entire Slenderman mythos. In that very same video, they pass their own logo, and they don't even notice it.

You are being rude because all I did was point out something I thought was a clue, but isn't. In other words, I'm helping out. If that thing didn't have an orange cap, I would be 90% positive it relates to the story somehow. I sincerely thought that was a Powerade bottle, and I was wrong, and that's that.

Relax man, we're all just trying to have some fun. I'm not pushing that theory or anything, just trying to help out.

We covered this aaages ago when the same thing was happening on Alex's youtube channel. It's a quirk of the youtube system. Namely, it's when you last logged in, not when you last logged out.

couldn't it be both? I mean, the advertisers never tell us where the "power" in powerade comes from...
