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

personally im really done with irony and quippy soy banter.

you know when someone makes an epic speech and some guy is like "Well that was corny!" yeah i know you suck at writing but highlighting how shit it is, isnt going to make it better. please just stand behind your stuff or no one will.

On the other hand, the next Star Wars movie should start with Johnny Starwars saying ”I'm so sick of all these Star Wars”, turning to the camera, and winking.

That overused quippy banter shit has made me curious for the (inevitably terrible) Elden Ring film that got announced.

Your average movie writer wouldn't be able to just let the visual humour of something like the warrior jars just be, they don't trust the audience enough for that. So either there'll be "well that just happened"-ass quips when any of the goofier elements of the setting pop up, or they excise all of that and just make it as dour and joyless and grimdark as possible.
