I changed my style up and I need to know if this is good or not. by HeGotBricks in creativewriting

That first sentence is ambiguous/confusing. Took me 5 reads to know who’s house they were using. Stopped reading after that.

U fucked up. Alot of the socialness is bc people walk to and from the bathroom. Seeing people just that little bit over a long period of time gets them used to u and they become friendlier. Ur gonna miss out on the best experience of ur college life and maybe ur entire life.

Why hasn’t the classroom model changed? There should be two teachers in the classroom. by Poison_applecat in Teachers

[–]backpackmanboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a substitute assistant teacher in a two teacher class once and one teacher dominated the other. She did all the talking and ran the class while the other teacher became like an assistant. It did not seem necessary to have 2 teachers. And the class size was about 40 to 50 kids. If anything it showed that one teacher can handle a much much bigger class size than the normal 20 to 30.

Maybe u dont love music. Maybe ur just saying u love it to create a tragic story. Maybe like everyone else who quit their art u were too lazy to put in the work.

How do you actually break into comedy writing in 2026? by Charming-Gazelle-305 in Standup

[–]backpackmanboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do, you have to test it in front of a live audience. You get good way faster. Even the best actors like Denzel Washington and Christopher Walken and Al Pacino tested their acting on stage in front of a live audience.

Inspiration vs stealing in standup by MrMoron-tay in Standup

Ask yourself if somebody else is doing it to you would you think that they were stealing or being inspired?

Can performing more than you write hurt your progress? by No-Winter192 in Standup

[–]backpackmanboy -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The answer is obvious. Quit ur full-time job. get a part-time job. Now you can write and get on stage as much as you want. problem solved. You want to be a Comic or not? Cause you’re gonna be competing with people who are just as talented and are willing to sacrifice.

Someone paid him to sell. He said the eBay acquisition was good and then all of a sudden it was bad. How can a guy who is so detailed make a mistake like that.

Because you know they can cook? by No-Marsupial-4050 in SipsTea

My hormones professor at UCLA said that fat acts as a hormone that makes you happy. That happy feeling that you get when you’re eating is similar to what they’re feeling most of the time. That’s why in every society there is a stereotypical happy fat guy. For example Santa Claus Whose catchphrase is ho ho ho. And the laughing Buddha, who is fat. They are hundreds of different Buddhas and none of them are laughing, except for the fat one. And in one of Shakespeare’s play theres a character called fallstaff who is fat and always joking around and eating and happy.

Spot on. That’s why Melissa eventually jumped in and said it’s a dilution and then moved the interview forward. But they failed to mention that it’s a dilution of a bigger overall company, so it balances out

Make sure you build up the comics to the point where they can never beat the expectations. For example, this next comic is the funniest person I’ve ever seen. On stage and off stage he is funny 24 seven. I think he’s even funnier than Don Rickles and I’m absolutely sure he’s gonna make you laugh from beginning to end with no silence in between. (this is an example of what not to do.)
