badposting
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:
- 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
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- 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

You ever think about how a bunch of the Anglo Saxon Housecarls fled after Hastings and joined the Eastern Roman Varangian Guard (the place many Norse joined, including Harald Harada who also lost in 1066 at Stamford bridge) only to eat shit against an entirely different group of Normans in Sicily?
the Englino-Varangoi probably weren't involved in Sicilia, just the clash at Durrës, for that (small) heap of soldiers it must've been hilarious though.
Oh thanks I'm misremembering.
you're remembering fine, it's just the emperors were not interested in defending sicilia/apulia so the varangoi(as imperial bodyguards) weren't involved until the too-little-too-late grain of hostilities
