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'm the vanguard party of confusing misspellings

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

So does that mean you actually meant to make a John Berry post instead of a John Kerry post?

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 13 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Anyone remember the whole swiftboat thing?

Wasn’t it something like, at one point in his life, it was politically expedient for him to have an “are we the baddies” moment.

But at the same time he won a lot of medals and refused to part with them.

Then he ran for president and other navy vets said he wasn’t a sufficiently efficient cold blooded death squad leader.

And then he repudiated having had the “are we the baddies moment” and said he was so an efficient ~~gruppenfuherer~~ leader as evidenced by all the medals he had refused to throw away even after supposedly awakening from the horrors of his own creation.

And then he lost

Yea, but Dem fundraisers and parties had the best ketchup. So there is that.

Some counter goodposting: This shitbag is/was the US climate envoy (the new one is John fucking Podesta LOL) and he agreed to two different climate deals (COP whatever they are) and then instantly after arriving in the US, he publicly said that the US will not honor the stuff that it doesn't like from the deals that he just signed.

Honestly the biggest problem this community ever faced and joking about it seems more dangerous than any struggle session that has occurred since.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 15 points 8 months ago (1 children)

trauma

I... I was there. The late nights, sitting in search, watching the same named bot accounts pop up. I could Ban most of them before they got through the trench, but sometimes... Sometimes...

Pavlichenko saved me many times...

I think the underlying problem of the individuals who spent over a year constantly spamming his name was more of a problem than the forced meme itself. It’s not like the spammers were stochastic.

Posting this is digital terrorism.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 9 points 8 months ago

I challenge anyone to find a worse post that doesn't end in a deletion or a ban. This is the line.

Don't actually take me up on that challenge anyone please I don't wanna see any more comrades get the ban

AFAIK he threw his Medal of Honor and there's footage of him doing so back in the '60s or '70s. Did he go find it after?
