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

my grandma would routinely take her own cooking book, open it, read the recipe carefully and then do something entirely fucking random and say 'if this works i hope i remember to write it down'.

This is how I cook lmao. Just look at some recipes for the general idea then do whatever I feel like instead. It generally works: cooking is easy as long as you know your ingredients and balance the flavors.

and yet at the same time she was also intransigent with some things. 'this is the best method to peel eggs wow you didn't listen to me time to kill myself', for an example.

Lmao I'm also absolutely stuck on certain methodologies that I've found to work better than anything else, although most of those are knife safety things where if someone does it wrong I get anxious because it's dangerous, to the point that I'll insist on taking the knife away from them and chopping or peeling something myself if they won't hold it right.

I know you hate to see me coming with my reasonably fast incredibly unorthodox knife cutting skills. You also can't touch me lest I will pretty sure stab myself

This right here. This is 90% of what matters.
