I’ve got a lot of problems with you people, and now you’re going to hear about it.
You couldn't smooth a silk sheet if you had a hot date with a babe...! I lost my train of thought.
Good comedians are often people who complain about life's bullshit in a funny way, so why not?
So, what's the deal with airplane food...
I said good comedians :-)
This is just a Poetry Slam with fewer steps.
People who go around complaining about their lives unprompted are energy vampires and are a pain to be around.
Being in a room where that's the theme? Yuck.
Everyone needs a space for venting, so maybe this concept would let people purge and be generally more pleasant to be around?
I think the difference is some people need to vent once in a while, but other people make it their personality to simply always be angry at everything and everyone. Those people should always be avoided because they do drain your own energy and motivation in life.
Isn’t that open mic night at a comedy venue?
That sounds like group therapy with booze. Sounds awesome, actually.
Group therapy with an established group doesn't need booze. And you can always get a drink afterwards
Bitching Night
Won’t help anyone.
In fact, it might be more harmful. Just a group of people who already are in a negative mind space.
Venting should be done in a healthy environment with trustworthy people. Not strangers.
Support group community in shambles
Yeah humans feeling bad in a group has never lead to anything good.. Except every time because humans love to help others feeling similarly to them and empathise easily with people with similar problems
Pitchforks and torches are half price too!
