badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

I think a tankie class would perform well in a real army. Why has no one thought of this yet?

The comics establish Heavy's dad was a counterrevolutionary, except because of the game's timeframe they have to also establish he was a "counterrevolutionary" in 1941

His father was a white soldier; did white-aligned counter revolutionaries even exist in 1941?? Otherwise, there's nothing to suggest he collabed with Nazis. Think the writers fucked up on that one

I don't think they intended him to be a collaborator, but it's funny how they got so brainwormed they accidentally implied it

That was it, thank you-- it'd been years since I last paid attention to the comics, so I couldn't quite remember how that all shook out

In hindsight that might be the same flavor bit as Soldier thinking he's fighting in World War 2 the more I mull it over

IIRC he fought in France well into the 50s.

That's what I wonder. At the same time, you can never really discount brainworms. Soldier also thinks all of his team are American despite the obviously french, german and russian members lmfao.

Demoman my beloved main. For some reason I thought they still hated eachother; must have gotten them mixed up
