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

Don't eat there. Don't spend money there. Take an explosive shit and don't flush. This is praxis

(Poor people get a pass obviously)

Here, it's like the same cost as Applebee's unless you're buying off the app.

I obviously know less than anyone about this, but didn't it used to be shit cheap a few years ago?

It's expensive as fuck these days. A meal is like 12-15 bucks depending on where you are.

I went to IHOP the other day with a friend. I realized that I paid less for my friend and I to have lunch at a sit-down restaurant with an actual waitress (before tip), than I do for meals for my wife and myself through a drive-thru.

Depends, it's been around this price in certain regions of my state since at least 2020ish. For example I know near my college it used to be like $1-3 more per item than my home town (something I noticed back when I got food driving home once and got the golden arches at both ends). Now, I'm not quite where I grew up but from the few times I've been there prices have rose dramatically.

Where I am now, a meal, without coupons and app deals, is like 15-20 dollars 13-18 if it's medium.
