Hey, I filmed this video a while back and I think it's hilarious.

This is piano expert Wilma Eberson teaching you the basics of piano playing from expert village.
Love to hear what you have to say about it. My favorite part is the piano's parts. XD

I thought it was pretty funny. =)
I don't know who Elberson is, but I know who Expert Village is. XD

Wilma Eberson is my Made up character. She basically thinks she's a piano God and knows everything and teaches nothing. XD

I hardly even cracked a smile. I think having a more concise video with only the best jokes would have made it more enjoyable.

Whiplash, I honestly don't see how. It's funny, random, but hilarious. The idea is that she is teaching but her methods are useless. You didn't think the piano parts were funny, no sense of humor :( "The most important part of the piano... and that is the Music rest, if you have a keyboard without a music rest, just throw it in the trash and get something else!" how can anyone think that isn't funny.

I'm sorry that my standards for comedy are higher than yours?

You got shut down, Lukash. You are now Kentaku's man-bitch.
Srsly, I don't even understand how you could possibly miss how hilarious that video was.

I like how you played the scales and moved your head, like it was something awesome.

I don't really see the humor in this either. Where's the punch line? Incorrect music theory? The single silly fact before the person plays?

And to pull this stuff off, you have to be good at it. The person acting as Wilma is not.

Yes nyu, I love that , she thinks she rules XD

You guys just haven't seen these kinds of vids before. Haven't you ever seen sketch comedy?? Obviously the incorrect music theory and bad teaching and just
how bad of a creep this woman is. That's what's funny. Expert village has a reputation for having terrible teachers with incorrect music theory who are basically
amateurs getting paid by the company. This is a parody where it's exaggerated alot. The punch line is that a teacher should be a person who wants to help you learn and obviously wilma eberson is not that.

Sheesh, it's just an improv, it's not scripted.

Glad you thought it was funny Hopelesscomposer ;)

We've all seen expert village videos. We understand what this parody was trying to accomplish. It failed at it.

ok, I am not easily offended but saying "It failed" is not exactly the nicest thing to say. I think it's funny, hopeless thinks it's funny, nyu thinks it's funny so if you don't I guess I can't convince you. But hey may'be I have a stronger easier sense of humor because I think it's hilarious when I watch my cats play outside and chase acorns. It doesn't take much to make me laugh.

If we were to measure the comedic value of that video, it would be equivalent to the magnitude of the torque on a dipole that is parallel to an electric field.
