Annie Agar's Big Ten meeting

Submitted by yossarians tree on October 13th, 2023 at 1:27 PM

Annie's made quite a name for herself with her weekly NFL wrap up videos. This is the first I've seen her take on the B1G (correct me if wrong). The editing and script is so rapid fire that you really need to watch more than once. Pretty sure she is a Michigan native and UM grad. If you think she's going to troll Michigan State, well...

She's done B1G things before, and these have gotten even tighter and faster paced.  She's really good at these and pretty successfully nails the tone of all 14.  Thanks for posting.

I mist be racist because i read the tweets and didn’t see anything wrong. The NFL one saying everyone is either injured or suspended or this or that was likely at a time when crap was in the news. Either way, how is it racist? And telling a pitcher he’d be better off if he put his cap on forward (“this aint the hood”)… does that make someone a racist!? The best one was regarding Mexico/Flint. “Used to be they made cars in Flint and you couldn’t drink the water in Mexico. Now it’s reversed!”

I believe that she has done videos for the B1G before, but they are pretty funny.  Like you said, you have to be up to speed on the teams in the B1G to get all of the jokes, but that is what makes them amusing.

Holy shit I made the Harbaugh/Bubbles comparison to my wife Saturday night. Those specs need to be put in a Lions Club donation bin ASAP.

I had low expectations given it was recommended from here, but it was actually pretty funny. It was also short, which I appreciate.

Nothing funny on the internet can be longer than a TikTok video.

Hit and miss for me. I watch most of the videos, but there are a lot of "try hard" jokes in a lot of them that are pretty terrible. 

The comments from the mostly male followers are pretty LOL. Basically every video she posts has a bunch of weirdos "shooting their shot". Its pretty gross/hilarious.

I find that to be about 98% of internet humor for these tik tokers and whatnots. But I'm old so what do I know.

But really, if you are trying to churn out humorous content constantly, it's hard.

As I always say in these threads, I miss Stuffing the Passer.

I saw an interview recently where Bo Burnham was talking about putting out content constantly. It's a relatively new thing for comedians, because they used to do a set constantly and go around and do shows and hone the content and then maybe do a special. But now if comedians, actors, creators, etc., just go away for like a year or two to do a longer form piece of work, everyone thinks they must have died (hyperbole, of course).

Personally, I hate the idea of having to put out content regularly, which is why I started a blog.

yeah, that's a big part of why most comedians have very strict no phone policies at shows. Sometimes they are working on stuff for a special or whatever, but in many cases, they just don't want all of their jokes out there so they can travel from club to club without have to change their material every night.
