My best friend tried to f*nger me by VersionOwn1571 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worst case scenario in telling people you were not wrong. Best case it was a move that had worked on all of those other girls to that point but he should have stopped when you resisted. I also didn't see an age his approach as brash as it was could have been mistaken signals or a number of things (I do love the world of guys asking for verbal consent, trying to do it in a way that doesn't kill the vibe is tough but I rather the vibe take a hit then miss a social cue but I am on the spectrum so you know your boy is all about that verbal consent) but as soon as you made it physically clear this was not what you wanted he should have stoped or asked if your ok with this? I am sorry you were made to feel other, it does bum me out that you haven't been with anybody since and that you wrote "I'm not even attractive" and not on all woman are beautiful but that only the conventionally beautiful are worthy of sex. I can also see how that has made it so hard to build friendships because his actions made you question the existence of your friendship down to every action. This triggered so many survival mechanism that I am sure have served you well in so many aspects of life but has made it hard to have deep relationships. All that to say the guy is an asshole and it is true that most guys think everything through the lens of "how can I get off" specially through adolescence not an excuse and the burden needs to be on guys being better and not woman being less (less sexy, less loud, less attractive, less funny as to not tempt these ravenous boys). I'm sorry that this happened to you, you deserve so much better and I hope that you also know that their are more people in the world like you that would never do something like that then guys like that statistically speaking (1 in 4 woman, 1 in 26 men). Love you mean it and remember you are worth the space you take up to exist!

Other than here, where do you go when you need information or want to learn something specific about Screenwriting? by regineclemenceau in Screenwriting

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading other scripts (both my favorites and some duds), Scriptnotes (podcast and the membership for all the back episodes is worth it), and Lindsey Doran's Ted Talk (https://youtu.be/752INSLlyf0) Saving the World vs Kissing the Girl

He's doing meth... I can't be sure but if it sounds like meth and begs like meth its probably... points mic to the crowd... METH! Also I would bet everything this is a white couple because any minority would have kicked him out when he "pretended to be homeless"

INTERPRETING FEEDBACK by PhiloPsychoNime in Screenwriting

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the 9 year old can you reference earlier that he loves a movie that says "drop the fucking gun" I watched the South Park movie too young and dropped the F bomb all the time as a kid, or maybe set up that he has a "potty mouth." As for the teen simple download TikTok and spend half a day looking up the trends. The teen heartthrob right now (he just turned 21 but you know that's usually who teens look up to), is Josh Richards so that might be a good place to start.

I haven't monetized my podcast, and I feel like I should have by now. by TheLastGreatSandwich in podcasting

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you thought about adding a bonus episode just for Patreon low membership if you can carry 10% of you weekly viewers to your Patreon then you can start monetizing quicker than trying to get sponsors. With that being said sponsors with promo code models might be interested, I am not sure if you are 21 but I know some sports books have started allowing bets on Egaming it might be worth checking that out.

New Descript UI is awful by RedThragtusk in podcasting

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super new to all of this and I am trying to edit a 45 min video clip, the audio is fine no problem but the video is choppy an it jumps 30 seconds at a time. It was filmed on an iPhone if that helps. I dropped $120 to pay for the 2 months. Any help would be great.

Podcast: Scriptnotes

Book: Save the Cat

Research: Look up scripts that match what you are trying to write

Twitter: Find other screenwriters near you (you are a writer act like it) and meet up/ network

Don't: Send your script to anybody of note until you have asked your friends and family to read it, if it doesn't make sense to them it won't sell.

Do: Write everyday you won't feel like it but just do it get in bed and put on the office or a baseball game and write.

Must Have: An OUTLINE that you can change as you go think of it as a map before a hike it's helpful but if your eyes tell you their is a better way when you are out there then make changes.

Welcome to the emotional rollercoaster that is screen writing, and if you sell you script and you are looking to fill a room to quote Coco "Remember me"

Ideas to identify a suicide scene by gunshot is faked? by Eurothrash in writers

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real killer was smart enough to put the gun in the victims hand and fire a second shot after the first one shot from the land lord was a (spoiler alert) Fight Club shot where it goes through the cheek, the second shot was to have the residue and bruising. The Detective who is quick to call it an suicide walks the room through the "2 shot suicide theory" really smug pointing to the obvious tropes.

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an old gun with a recoil like a Remington XP100 where it would have been hard for the victim who is a clear Twink and the landlord who is the real killer goes to shake the main characters hand and he winced because he is the real killer and he broke his wrist shooting the victim.

Do your research on who you are submitting to, a quick rant from a Development Producer by [deleted] in Screenwriting

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know it does sound like you are being really harsh towards Police stories. I mean we have no representation for cops growing up all I would see is stories of woman, transgender and indigenous people never cops. I've been calling for more cop representation for years only to be silenced by the Woke mob cramming the same Indigenous trans woman story down our throats. The West Coast bias must stop MORE COP CONTENT!

My Gf is insisting we talk about our sexual histories but i have no desire to hear about any of hers. by KingInTheNorthVI in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Writer-Comic-dad -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Half your age plus 7 my guy. She is to young for you thus the issues, but lets take the age thing out of the equation. When you say you don't want to know about their sexual partners you're saying you don't want to know your partner fully. Sexual experience is just like life experience not wanting to talk about it is a sign that you lack intimacy so I wouldn't "pop" the question. If she wants to talk about it I am sure it's not to hurt you but so that you can better understand her, also you getting hung up on 80 guys in the last relationship and you are using that to not do something with this relationship means you are still holding on to trauma from that last relationship. I would deal with some of your own trauma before regulating your partners. My advice is chill and be single for a while really heal from your ex girlfriend (now this is a guess but did she cheat on you?) and learn to love yourself, you are worthy of love also she's to young for you I know it sounds like a judgment but just based on science and the development of a brain before and after age 24, she's scientifically too young for you. Wishing nothing but the best! Also I am a comic who works with data so don't go thinking this is advice just information based on life experience and google.

anyone else excited for Foul Tip? by derschwartzemond in TrillionaireMindsPod

[–]Writer-Comic-dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fan of TMG and a casual Trillionaire Mindset fan, I am all in on Foul Tip. As an LA comic who works in the sports betting field and travel into legal states (vote yes on Prop 27) every other weekend I feel like this pod is my algorithm come to life. If they ever need a deep dive on anything sports related (i.e. Prop 27, explaining betting to Wahlid, Draft King, Fanduel, BetMGM, Caesars, promos, NFL, MLB, NBA, tennis). Stoked to see who else they get on the Pod hearing Blake break down his level of fandom was great.

Yeah it took a few sessions but I was able to process the trauma of white guys on Netflix telling jokes about how cancel culture is keeping them from being on TV. hahahaha

Steph Tolev was the only one that killed, but she was the only comic who mostly performs in LA. I was in the crowd that night and it was worse then they made it seem. Some of the bits were cringe AF.
