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

Yep, that's definitely the sort of thing I'd do for shock value in one of those "you're five again, but with all your adult memories and emotional growth intact" thought experiments. Certainly more expedient shock play than waiting for someone to discuss politics with my dad, telling them their analysis is wrong, and admitting to being a Marxist-Leninist. Besides, a thing like this, you could still maybe weasel out of the commie thing, if you can blame Red Scare junk and just knowing he's the Hot Villain trope... (although, I definitely don't go for guys and Stalin is no exception. I just want to hug him because he gives serious dad vibes and so I assume he gave the best dad hugs.)
