So many hilarious videos came out the first few weeks of lockdown. I think my favorite will always be "I'm not a cat"
There really were. I wonder if there's a pandemic compilation?
Do you remember the sea shanty craze started by the kid singing "The Wellerman," then a bunch of other people joined in to harmonize, then Argules and the Kiffness added their remixes?

The online community really came together with some amazing stuff during the lockdown.
I believe the Wellerman guy is featured as a random encounter event in Starfield now. He sings seashanties with lyrics changed for space travel. I love it lol
Edit to add - watched the vid you linked. That song never fails to make my skin go all tingly when I hear it. I think it's the harmonic chorus when they all harmonize. Chills every time.
This is my favorite, struts confidently into BBC interview

Bah ya wanker.
Man come on how in the fuck did that get me it is 2023
Man, I'm using Old Reddit and still managed to let it happen. I clicked on the link's little thumbnail icon which expands the link and opens an embed / thumbnail. It's paused, but I can see that familiar face. Then I still habitually clicked on the thumbnail to play the video.
I really need better sleeping habits.
dQw. Always be on the lookout for dQw. It's when they use a different upload that's when they really get ya
well played….redditor 🫵😂
How is this new to me? 😄 I just died.
The only thing that would have been better is if the judge let him leave the filter on for the whole hearing.
"You have no authority here, Jacquie Weaver". Perhaps that one is too localised to the UK.
Totally agree, there are certain videos and songs that remind me of the beginning of the pandemic that were good memories. It goes downhill after that though :/
I love when the teachers have fun with the online classes
My old military instrcutor used to show his bad Star Wars Battlefront gameplay or the crap he built with his 5 year old daughter in Minecraft
That's the best and most wholesome thing I have read today.
It was awesome. Silly as hell of course. But awesome. That was such a great guy.
I had this one old professor once, his marker was dead. He said "If I throw this marker into the trash can on the other side of the room class is canceled."
He made it and he stuck to his word.
He was like it too.
Sometimes when the weather was really bad he just plain refused to go out and watched movies with us.
Or other times he just gave us a bull assignment so hebcould send us home if we did everything well leading up to it.
Most of that because our class was also just really damn good. But he made it worth it. Stellar teacher.
What, being good at your job and taking care of your students produces better students? Who would have thunk that.
Glad to hear it though. :)
It's not a given. He went outside of the book when he thought it was neccesary. And he was good at that.
It was that which made our class the best of the school year.
I really miss that goof.
Was it English class by chance??
Not even. Dutch actually. But the concept's very similair.
That's wholesome. Mine would just make dick and butt jokes all day. Still a cool dude, but damn was that a culture shock for me. I realized from then on my repertoire was going to be dicks, butts and balls all day... and it was. Mechanics are weird man...
Lmao. Yes. They are.
OH MY GOD I WANT THAT TEACHER, HE PLAYS BATTLEFRONT?!?!?!
"you see this? Well this is not how you do it because explodes in game"
Even better! He loved killing Stormtroopers as Luke Skywalker in PVE.
And he was awful! But he loved it
Military online?
No. It was a sort of pre-military trianing school. Similair to cadets though not quite the same.
I wanted to join the military back then but after finishing and getting my papers I had to stop due to chronic compartment syndrome.
Basically for people who want to join the army and don't want to waste time on another education.
Which in hindsight was really fucking dumb.
Something about old military guys man.
This is the kind of class that actually get student's attention.
Cool teacher
If you are studying a masters you better be paying attention
If I'm paying 100k they better be doing everything to keep my attention to help me learn, not just throwing work at me
Damn this is the funniest shit I've read all day
if I'm paying an arm and a leg for an education, I can do what I fuckin like with the time I spend in class.
Teachers like this know that students get burnt out and have trouble focusing. Doing stupid silly shit helps the students.
Very based
Absolutely I would 100% attend that class even hung over back in the day.
The classes that make your day better are the ones you genuinely feel bad about missing.
Idk man, sometimes you pull up to class tired and hungover and just want a full lecture.
The best part is when he explains that he can't un-potato without ending the online session so he's going to do the whole thing as a potato lolol
I didn't need this but I'm thankful
I needed this!
It might seem like just a professor not taking the class seriously, but I would listen to and remember every little thing that potato man would teach me. Great way to connect with students.
I had a high school teacher that was a lot like this, he taught AP macro economics but had the attention span of a goldfish. We would ask him primed questions so he'd tell us a story unrelated to class which would regularly take up the entire class time. He literally once held class outside and would have students interrupt his class just to say hi and talk. I still don't know how we covered all the material that we did.
Despite his teaching method (or maybe bc of his teaching method), I scored a 5 on the AP exam with what felt like little studying. I still remember thinking "man this test is really easy compared to my other AP tests".
That sounds like a teacher who knows what he’s doing then lol
😎 SPUD-ents 😎
These kind of teachers make school fun.
Edit: 1,000 upvotes!?
And let’s be honest, accounting needs it.
You sir, are correct.
You sir, are a fish
The most fun we had in accounting was calling our prof "Do me a favor Dan" because he said "do me a favor" every time he wanted us to do something.
That carried us through the entire year.
But there’s always that one party pooper who tells the professor that he paid money to learn not have fun and they ironically have shit grades.
True
yea but sadly the kids are absolute devils. even if the teachers wanted to do something fun with their low pay they usually can’t due to being too busy dealing with the kids
source: i go to high school
Cringe asf edit
Agreed, I'll change it.
I watch this video every time it's reposted
And each time the quality becomes more potato like.
After all these years, the world is still going to pot... a to
"So Mr. Potato..."
"It's Dr. Potato"
“Listen lady…”
“Doctor!”
“Doctor Lady…”
I say this in my anytime I hear someone say “lady”
To bad it's not the long version
Makes me chuckle every time.
I hate that they purposefully cut it so it stops at the scream. It’s a sub rule violation too
Highschool teachers: college professors won’t be your friend like me, they don’t care if you pass or fail
College professors:
My college professors are so much better than my high school ones. I absolutely adore most of my college professors. Can't say the same for the high school teachers...
Same, my professors were super cool and chill, but HS made it sound like they’d tell me to fuck off if I asked for help. Which is usually what happens in HS, ironically.
difference in people who chose to be professional educators and pulled it off because of their passion vs. people who settled for teaching public school because it was easier
“We are preparing you for the real world where no one gives you a break”
College professors when you come to them in a timely manner and explain your grandpa just died again: “I understand”
again
Hmmmmm

OP is a repost bot, of course it is
Yeah, but one man’s repost is another man’s “This is GOLD 😂”
I hate repost bots, but this is my first time seeing this post, so there's that.

"Are my eyes this close together normally?" 🤣
"Mr. Tato? "
"Dr."
"Dr. Tato-"
Just love it.
THIS IS NO WAY TO TEACH ACCOUNTINGS!
Seems streets ahead to me.
Cease the day!
this had me in stitches
Everytime its reposted, it looses one pixel.
A new Vtuber is born
I'm sorry that's hilarious though?
Did anybody else use to love the annoying orange?
No… lol
You're an apple!
Ain't no party like a kitchen party cause a kitchen party never stops
Such a spud professor
I hope that guy's doing great. These videos helped me get through some of the lows of the pandemic.
It's because potato is life!
I wish I had a professor like this
How do I unpotato
this type of teacher will never make a boring class
Yeah
Id rather have this for an hour lecture than actual accounting

Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.
This get reposted so fucking much on this sub and I'm always here for it, the longer version is still funny
These people are good people. But let it be at the end of lectures. I hate the people who start this shit at the beginning of meetings and waste 15 minutes of our times.
I've seen this 1,000 times, and I watch the whole thing every time.
Seriously usually a few times too
Reminds me of Thumb Wars
This just unlocked an old memory I have of a weird movie called thumb wars.
Yassssss
REPOST BOT
If Michael Scott was a Professor.
Whoever can’t have a good laugh every now and then doesn’t have a good mental health. There needs to be balance in all things.
I am literally crying
Lectures costing almost $90/hour* (if you calculate tuition vs hours of lecture).
The Professor meanwhile "I'M A TATER!!!"
*
You aren’t just paying for instruction.
You ok there buddy, need a hug?
You're right, they should pay extra for the entertainment. I had to endure school with the most monotone, mundane teachers that almost put me into a coma. I'd pay extra to actually liven it up some.
Imagine going $120,000 in debt for that
Worth it
Funny he is getting paid huge to clown on his students
Get a life lol
Cardiff?
So we know this professor is based in Minnesota…. One step closer to figuring out who he is!
Then again maybe professor Melendez is taking the bit lol
This is the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan
I'm always wondering when I see this gif: there an Accounting class in some Masters program??
Most MBA’s have accounting courses in them, also there’s a masters of accounting degree.
Music name?
"Please I am paying 60.000$ for this, can we get on with it"
This must have been a big class because a lot of people post this video….
I paid 40,000 dollars and I'm getting my money's worth.
Ha, cool lecturer
Here is the bill: 50k per year
You have accounting professors that are under 65 years old?
I would be honoured
5/5 on ratemyprofrssor dot com
Love the just eyes and mouth thing, fucking hilarious to me
Especially the one with Sabaton music
I need a whole sub for this
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@prof.tato on tiktok
I need the full video pronto
Didn't realize what sub this was from, so the end caught me totally by surprise.
I laughed so hard my breathing sounded like wheezing for a while
ha ha family all of potato
Haha wtf
I would die for this man
Classic accounting humor:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbEi3p2DYRE
This professor would be a big hit in Pawnee, you can count on that
vtubers should be using stuff like this instead of the emotionless anime avatars they're currently using.
Damn the VeggieTales reboot is different than I imagined
That’s hilarious. I wish I had that professor when I was in school lol
100% would enroll in this class lmaooo
Just took an accounting final and laughed way too hard at this.
This professor is goals! I would have done way better in college if he taught my classes lol
I love this video a bit too much
A funny potato teaching accounting and dancing around,
The Michigan Difference.
This is what Ann Arbor will do to a man.
Never gets not funny 😂
Its not a scream in the full video.
Lol I remember my college days while I was getting my teaching degree! Was tough as a single female!
Our teacher showed us standup comedy clips so we always had a good laugh before a test to reduce any stress.
Accounting is the most boring class to ever exist, so be glad to have a good teacher
literally a V-TUBER
Why was his reaction time just fucking perfect though... honestly, what an actor :')
All accounting students have to take a GAAP year.
