When Your Hometown Finds Out You've Been Mocking Them Endlessly In Your Stand Up Routine
Below is a story of a brave 28-year-old woman who decided to challenge herself by attempting stand-up comedy to combat a fear of public speaking. After realizing that her personal stories were landing better on stage, she decided to embrace the pain she felt growing up as a gay teenager in a small town, by writing jokes on how homophobic and "ass-backward" the town was. Her material was landing well until footage of her stand-up circulated on Facebook and she began receiving angry messages from people in her hometown. Worried about what she should do next to prevent more backlash, she took to /r/relationships for advice. After the Twitter account @redditships posted the story, she pretty much received support from everyone online.
