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

Are we so sensitive now that we can't identify gender by the buttwipes they use? We need a special little text to tell us that Gordon uses the ones from the black, manly packaging and smells like bourbon? Just nerf the world I guess.

It's always been really funny to me how Gordon Freeman is supposed to be a turbo nerd with a PhD from MIT (and that Gabe Newell was like yeah, that's right). The amount of times that credential is useful to him is zero, because he's basically just Doom Guy or Duke Nukem.

I'm having trouble articulating it, but there's an implication here that I appreciate. Yeah, yeah, MIT PhD, now go push the cart you loser.
