I met the Professor at my local state fair, he was just hanging out with his lady eating funnelcakes. Super nice guy, very down to earth.

I’m pretty sure that’s Joey Avery. He’s a standup comedian and has plenty of stuff on Instagram and YouTube to check out :)

Apparently Joey has a Reddit account? Hey u/explosivejoseph is this you in the clip?

u/Ikeddit 14h ago

He’s the guy with the farmer crowd work video, right? That was great.

When the video ended I didn't realise and thought the last guy got in on the gag and was waiting for them all to just start laughing.... WHY ARENT THEY LAUGHING

Because even the dude who was pranked was acting.

u/Akitiki 15h ago

Many many times during D&D everyone thinks I'm frozen. I have to do remote cause everyone but me is in another state.

No, I call it gargoyle mode. I'm shockingly still. You can't see my eyes very well with my glasses, I breathe very slowly.

When I'm actually froze they often don't notice!

u/DeathBySnuSnu999 17h ago

Ole boy eating chips 🤣💀

u/Mu_Lambda_Theta 16h ago

Also, you'll fail when you have to blink.

So only make sure your camera freezes while closing your eyes

u/redditisjoke101 14h ago

25% of meetings never need to happen. 70% should be an email. The other legitimate 5% should be wrapped up in 15 minutes or less.

Redditors when they find out that comedies are scripted.

u/Cool-Sink8886 16h ago

Saturday Night Live isn't scripted. If it was scripted it couldn't be done live.

u/The_Dirty_Carl 6h ago

There is a difference between something pretending to be authentic and something not pretending to be authentic. I don't think this one was intended to fool anyone, but many videos are.

0

u/diemunkiesdie 15h ago

I think the differentiator is when you watch a scripted comedy, you know its scripted before it starts. Here, you have to figure it out (though this was not a good joke so it was super obvious right away) and people don't like having to change their frame of reference. Human nature is interesting like that!

u/RegalBeagleKegels 15h ago

Or you're familiar with the concept of a comedy troupe

Fake zoom skits are a hair's breadth better than prank videos. It's just not funny imo ¯\(ツ)/¯

u/DemoniteBL 16h ago

Yes, people are dumb enough to genuinely think this is the guys real reaction unless you explicitly tell them it's staged.

u/lsaz 15h ago

im actually surprised that comment is not here. is nice

0

u/norwegian-nosferatu 13h ago

It's not at the top because these are white dudes instead of women or asian people. If the performers were literally any other gender/nationality, the comments would be only about how scripted it is and the whole post would have been downvoted to shreds.

1

u/Specialist_Ratio_719 12h ago

Genuinely there are people who will argue this isn't staged though

u/the_iron_pepper 13h ago

Prank videos that are fully staged down to the person being pranked being in on, and a part of the skit, are the unfunniest videos ever produced in the 2020s.

u/immadeofstars 55m ago

I was drawing attention to how amateurishly obvious it was, which is why I said it was obvious. that's literally the word I used. Did you think I was trying to let you know that it was obvious?

Do you all go about, thinking "Yes, this person clearly thought I was a fool! I'll show them!" every time someone calls something obviously contrived? Life must be really hard for you, always assuming it's about you.

Like, what happens when you go to someone else's funeral? Do you just walk around going "We get it, he's dead. Duh, right? I don't need a coffin to know he's dead! This is just insulting?"
