As a geologist, let me just say that if you are failing to flirt that it’s not your fault. It’s quite normal if you are afraid to reach out first and strike. Slip in a couple of good geology puns and you could easily reverse your failure quite easily. It’s not uncommon to feel like using plate tectonic jokes crosses comedic boundaries and makes you divergent from the rest, but with a geologist your convergent senses of humor could easily transform the entire situation.
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
It's not my fault that I'm bad at subduction?

Op, this rocks. Have some gold

"Thank you for the gold kind stranger."
Geology rocks
Did you hear about the charming geologist?They got hit with charges of basalt and flattery
Aggregate basalt?! But I could of sworn they'd never hurt a mica.

Steel?

We have hearts of iron here.
