Hey guys. This is my humor/ sometimes stand up comedy blog. I write funny articles about a myriad of topics. If anyone has any ideas on how to make the site stronger or more presentable, I'd be happy to hear them.
Thanks.
The blog I need help with is dockerycomedy.wordpress.com.
Good job, sir.
A couple of quick tips:
Update your blog's tagline - it still as the default "Just another WordPress site."
Add a subscribe button widget - very important.
Good luck!
How do I do both those things?
To update tagline: Dashboard, Settings, General
To add a widget: Dashboard, Appearance, Widgets
Made those additions. Thanks a lot.
Posted an article today that I plan to turn into a column. The topic? Twitter tags.

New article today and the second to last in a series I'm doing.
hey I like your blog- easy to read and pretty amusing :)
Have you done any stand up work at all?
Thanks, man. And yeah I try to do stand up at least once a week. I just want to keep myself in most facets of comedy.
That's really cool. How did you get into stand up and where did you find a platform to start- I'm kinda interested in it myself, any advice would be quality thanks
I got into stand up through doing open mics. Most of the venues that I performed at in the beginning were not stand up venues. It would be a lot of musicians and then me. Sometimes it went well, sometimes, I was just annoying the audience.
The best way to get into stand up is to find any platform you can and just do it. There is no way to practice stand up, as, due to the crowd, there is no real rhythm that you can set yourself into. You can practice timing, but, the only way to get good at stand up is to do stand up. That's the most beautiful thing about it.
I'd suggest writing about 3 to 5 minutes worth of material, and trying it out anywhere you can. And then keep trying it out anywhere you can. And the take out or fix what doesnt work and write more jokes and do more shows. That's the best advice I can give.
New post about something I saw today on Twitter and couldn't help but think was ridiculous.
Good job, man! Will certainly be keeping an eye out for your posts. :)
Thanks, man. I'm glad you like it.
I just posted some of the web comics that I wrote for a friend. They're pretty sci fi/horror oriented, but they're really cool.
hey thanks for replying and giving me that advice! Hopefully going to uni will provide a platform for trying out a bit of stand up. I want to do it but find it slightly daunting as I have no experience-you must feel pretty vulnerable at first!
I've done my comedy blog for a year and a half, I had no idea what I was doing then. I'll check yours out and give you any advice I can..
To be honest, if you're funny then everything else is secondary
You're always gonna feel vulnerable on stage. You gain confidence the more times you do it, but the vulnerability never leaves.

New post, ending my article series of fake dating tips for "philias." May have another post up tonight, which will end my run on Hanna Barbera, focusing on Godzilla.

I finish my Hanna Barbera column with "Godzilla."
Hey, I like what I have read. Pretty funny stuff. I don't know how you managed to get Rich from Atomic Gator to talk nicely to you, that's a huge accomplishment!

And another update, as my friend uploaded more of the horror themed comic I wrote a bit on.
Discovered a complete TV series that I dont remember buying "Ultraman." Decided to start an article series about it, as I've found it to be the best TV series of all time in a not at all way.
