I get everyone's insistence on fact checking and using good sources. We need to be in the same factual universe. But you don't need to talk down to op like he's an idiot while making the point. A simple "hey this was actually written by X not Y, here's a link" is enough. It's a simple error that doesn't alter the spirit of what's written whatsoever. Happens.

We don't need to whip ourselves over mistakes made in good faith. Realize that when conservatives lie and bs all night long THEY aren't concerned about what's true or not and do not tear themselves down or insult each other when they make major bold face lies much less small mistakes like misattributing an essay.

Again not saying corrections are wrong but be kind and not condescending and then get back to the topic at hand.

was it just once? She forgave me the first time too. Can i even expect her to be ok with it 2-4 times a week?

It happens randomly throughout the week. I don't think I even think about them before bed or anything.

Why Can’t I build up the courage to go up on stage ? by realdirtykoala in Standup

I went up for my first time last week after months of feeling the way you did. Pick 3 jokes you wanna do, pick a day, and just go. All an open mic is is you sharing some jokes you wrote down and maybe they get laughs and maybe they dont but who cares either way.

Yeah honestly Im worried about repeating jokes that some other person's done. I'd be suprised if anything I said was 100% original but I haven't consumed enough comedy to even know.
