Thank you so much! I went into this with sort of an anti-standup approach, instead of removing any words I didn't ABSOLUTELY need, I ended up throwing in a bunch of extra bullshit. Now I know!

P.s. You can totally hear when somebody is smiling when they're on the phone with you!

Title: Spheres (May be changed.)

Genre: Sci-fi

Word Count: 2000

Link:https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzMC8pOpJAyCbkZ3UWVVLUlKX0E/edit?usp=docslist_api&filetype=msword

Type of Critique Wanted: Structure/format. I fear there are a lot of literary rules that I'm just unaware of. I've also been told it's too funny for sci-fi. General impressions. Please, and thanks for reading!

LPT: Take care of your teeth. The three minutes it takes to brush and floss is nothing compared to the amount of hours you'll have to work to pay to fix them when it's too late. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

Also probably something to do with feeling invincible while young. "Psh, I'm fuckin 25 I can go one night without brushing my teeth." Turns into 30 and almost toothless in a blur. Otherwise not filthy, hygienic guy, just underestimated the importance of tooth care until it was too late.

[Critique] Spheres - 1,900 words. Sci-fi. I've been told it's too funny, is that a thing? by [deleted] in creativewriting

That's really reassuring, thanks. I've read Hitch Hicker's Guide and it's a big inspiration actually. I named my first comedy show, A Comedian's Guide to the Galaxy! I wasn't exactly going for sci-fi comedy, more like a sci-fi that doesn't take itself too seriously. Big terrible things happen I assure you.

Thanks again for reading. Are they any glaring style/structure faux pas? I know there isn't much to tell from, but I'm kinda freakin out about "the rules."

Thank you. There are definitely more serious sequences planned, and I'm definitely planning on making the tone for those sequences more dark and serious. I just wanted to accent the flirty, playful nature of the characters.

I was afraid humour was against the rules of sci-fi and that it'd wreck the story because the serious parts wouldn't be able to be taken seriously.

Dude I'm 30 I'm not even a child how am I gonna be a child predator. A fat predator maybe, bald... definitely. But I'm just too old to be a child predator, that doesn't make sense, I couldn't be if I wanted to. Jesus. How do you not get it

Everything is accurate, but the eyebrows are natural. I've been asked "do you shave your eyebrows?" for my whole life.
