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

Can someone fill me in on the Owl lore? I chose this name because it's relevant to me personally, and also I just think owls are neat.
There's no real lore, we just had several people with owl themed usernames and several dropped off over the years
Partially from coincidentally having several people with owl in their username earlier on and also @Dort_Owl@hexbear.net currently and in previous owl themed accounts has kept up the being an owl bit and had made myriad shitposts related to it. Plus we all like owls
owls are just derpy cats of the skies they are delightful
I dont think if asked 'are owls cool?' Anyone on earth would say no. Owls are neat
The humble field mouse: 
The owl bit peaked when somebody convinced @NoisyOwl@hexbear.net to join because of his user name, without telling him that there's an owl bit.
(He stuck around for like a week and made 
before disappearing.)
You must be like, the progenitor then, yeah? Since you have no prefix.
Nah, a few people signed up with owl accounts at the start of the website. I'm just the one who thought of trying a tiny username.
If anyone is actually responsible, it's @Dort_Owl@hexbear.net, who's been one of the most active posters on the site for ages.
Woah woah woah you were here before me, it's your fault. I'm innocent.
OK I'm not innocent.
Well, when a snort_owl sneezes really hard...
This post will be removed for being too funny
Probably CW this for mention of suicide.
Done
