She is seeing this snowball because she kept talking. If she'd said the initial comment, and then let him respond, and then let him get back on track, it would have been fine- people respond or blurt things out sometimes, comedians expect that and roll with it usually. But then she took that, as he said, like it's about her and kept responding. I think this was indeed a good learning experience for literally everybody in the room.

​@@paulh2981 I agree to an extent, the issue is she is probably drunk and will be embarrassed the next day. A lot of people doing shit like this at shows, etc, are often drunk. Of course, you need to control yourself and how much you drink, but drinking is just accepted everywhere, and alot of people cant tolerate it or do not know their limit. HER fault 100 percent, but that is usually the reason. Not necessarily because they think they are a victim, it's usually because when people are drunk they lose the ability to reason. If someone is completely sober acting this way, I'd agree, but sometimes people get too drunk and don't know what they are saying. Her husband or BF is no way responsible for her, but he likely knew this going in and he should have taken her out sooner. Of course not his responsibility, though. People addicted to alcohol will tell themselves they will be better next time, FYI if she does it all the time, but she could be a first offender. Of course she could not be drunk (but she sounded drunk for sure) and just be this way, but it's highly unlikely. Just pointing out because alot of people who do not have issues with drugs or drinking seem to think people acting like this do it out of thinking they are the victim, they are narcissistic, etc, but for addicts that's not usually the truth, it just makes it seem that way. Alcohol is a huge problem for alot of people.

It was all a public service announcement. It was a bit. You think he could have posted this video with that woman's voice and image without her permission? You think comedy clubs at the airport have such good camera and microphone systems that they can see every single person's face and pickup every word they are saying? Notice when the crowd boo'ed her they all took turns talking... nobody talked over the next person. It was definitely a scripted bit.

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@dredwick 1. you couldnt see her face 2. Have you ever watched people applaud at something? Typically one person breaks the silence then another person joins, then another, then another. The rest of the crowd didnt want to heckle just as bad as her and the subsequent boo'ers joined in when they werent creating a fresh interuption. Why were the "shut up"s only one at a time? because the crowd is full of individuals, who have tipping points at different points. It'd be suspicious if they all yelled shut up in perfect unison like the clapping on family feud. 3. Comedians often have hired cameras that way they can make these highlight videos or sell the recordings to folks who want to watch them but missed the shows. 4. There's this thing called people yelling to be heard over a large room. There's also this thing called audio mixing where the editors possibly boosted the volume when we were meant to hear the audience members or, more likely, they didnt touch the audio and just added the captions to ensure we know what's being said. All in all, it isnt that deep that you're trying to conspiratorialize it. Crazier things have happened. The fact its on camera at a show is not outlandish and it being edited into this clip isnt outlandish either. The uncut version exists and is distributed already.

ive seen little of his stuff, always like it. he seems like someone very well educated and/or well disciplined from therapy tools, which is honestly amazing to see! i have an emotional intensity disorder, and i take things personally myself so i can empathize with being unable to control that and getting stressed out, but this was a lot. however, this is exactly how these situations need to be handled and how EVERYONE should deal with conflict to ground things in reality. it was factual - he described the situation to her; expressed how it made him/other's feel; asserted and reinforced it many many times; he kept mindful of EVERYONE let her know how he/other's felt; appeared confident; and even tried to negotiate with her. this is the DEAR MAN technique in DBT for interpersonal effectiveness to a T, idk if he intentionally used it or had even known about it - but he's clearly incredibly emotionally intelligent, and this was just amazing to see for how awkward it was. gotta admire his ability to handle these situations fr. sorry for the ramble, i love talking about mental health and seeing great examples of emotional intelligence and regulation in the wild - it's great to see 😅

The host asked for ideas for worst birthday gifts to be shouted out and that was my reply after people shouted "socks" and "a vaccum". The comedian who took the stage used all 3 answers in his bit and asked if it really was my birthday, it was, and proceeded to roast me.
