šŸ’£ Bomb Recovery: Let’s Fix That Joke
[Constructive Feedback Thread]
We’ve all been there...You thought the joke would hit. You believed in it. You stepped on stage… And then: silence. 😶
Welcome to Bomb Recovery—where jokes that didn’t land get a second chance.
šŸŽ¤ Here’s what to do:
  1. Post a joke, bit, or premise that bombed (on stage, online, in your head—doesn’t matter)
  2. Give us a little context: Where did you try it? What was the setup?
  3. Ask for help: Do you need new tags? A better angle? Shorter setup?
  4. Be brave, not precious—this is how real comics grow. šŸ’Ŗ
šŸ› ļø What you'll get:
  • Friendly, punch-up-focused feedback
  • New directions to try the bit again
  • Solidarity from comics who’ve also eaten it on stage
  • A chance to turn a flop into fire šŸ”„
āœļø Example:
Joke: "I bought a weighted blanket for anxiety. Now I have anxiety and back problems. "Tried at: Small open mic, didn’t get a single laugh. Need help with: Is the setup too long? Is the angle too familiar?
šŸ’” Remember: If you’re not bombing sometimes, you’re not pushing hard enough.
Drop your bombed material below šŸ‘‡Let’s fix it, punch it up, and help it rise from the ashes like a Phoenix with a punchline šŸ£šŸ”„
