I've joined the short video social media ecosystem. I'm not proud of this. But sometimes it's nice to just look at short videos online to wile away the time. (My platform of choice: Facebook Reels. Yeah, I know.)
Today I'm sharing 13 creators (for Thursday 13) who I enjoy. I have included one video from each as well as a link to their YouTube channel. Let me know in the comments of anyone I should find or if you watch these creators as well.
1. Ozzy Man Reviews @ozzymanreviews
He takes videos of animals and adds voices, as if the animals are talking. It's something we've seen before, but it's still funny. This is two rams, one who is angry and wanting to fight.
2. Smosh Pit @smoshpit
When these pop up on my feed they suck me in. He reads posts from Reddit (usually AITA, but this one is a petty revenge), and two others sit on the couch and react. They discuss. It's way more fascinating than it should be. (And there's way more to it than what I usually see, if you follow the link.)
3. Rangsk Puzzles @Rangsk
He does the various New York Times online puzzles. Daily. I like watching his Wordle solves after I've done them.
4. TerryAndKaniyia @TerryJ46
These two kids (well, twenty-somethings) listen to music that they have not heard before (but you most definitely have) and react. In this video, they're hearing Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain". They seem to enjoy most of what they listen to, and it's just fun watching them hear it for the first time.
5. Taylor Black @taylormakesvideos
She has some interesting takes on things. This video is where she's reading the comments section of a question someone posted online. Some of these are pretty funny.
6. Refashioned Hippie @refashionedhippie
This creator has a few different things she does. She finds ridiculous clothing pieces made by famous design houses that are crazy expensive, but you wouldn't want it anyway. And here's a bad design short. Oh, this is very much NSFW. You've been warned.
7. Gabe @gabectomy
He works in a phone store (which he does not name). And he tells stories of bad customer interactions. It reminds me of my days working retail. Yes, customers are this bad.
8. Sums of Anarchy @SumsofAnarchy
She does shorts on math. There's a lot of different ways to calculate things that I find interesting. This short is on where the word square came from (for you math-phobics).
9. Kameron Johnson @Kameronisfunny
He talks a lot about his family, mainly his daughter who must be a teenager. In this short he lists various punishments he can come up with in case she misbehaves. Like chaperoning prom and showing off his dance moves. Of which he has no good ones.
10. Sidneyraz @sidneyraz
"Here's something I wish I knew before I was in my thirties," is how he starts all his life hack videos. Well, I'm in my fifties, and I didn't know some of these. I definitely didn't know this about three fingers on my laptop trackpad.
11. JasonKPargin @JasonKPargin
He finds interesting things to say about all sorts of things. This is about how people tend to move counterclockwise. You'll find this fascinating.
12. Steve Hofstetter @stevehofstetter
He's a stand up comedian (who in this bit is talking about why he shouldn't be). Yeah, funny. Funny is good.
13. John Kotrides @genxjono
And for us Gen Xers, he talks a lot about our '80s childhoods and such. When did we get old?
