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

Terms and conditions for joining the polycule:

All applicants must able to praise and insult Mamdani at the same time. If you cannot do this, practice in your own time until you get it RIGHT.

No stinky people (except owls)

No complaining about Dort_Owl using your toothbrush for art. They are very talented and you will praise their work.

You will not avoid macaroni Fridays I FUCKING KNOW YOU'VE BEEN AVOIDING MY HOMEMADE MACARONI I WORKED HARD ON THAT.

Using the comically large spoon to eat anything but grain during a famine is not allowed. It is not funny to hit other members of the polycule over the head and say "I'm spooning you! Haha!" This is harassment.

No twinks

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 2 points 20 hours ago

It doesn't have your name on it, though.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 11 points 1 day ago

no twinks

This is both a problem and also not a problem

I already went through twink death, so no problems here.

If I make a large fork and do bits with that, would that be allowed? Like holding the fork while we spoon and saying "isn't this forking great!" or standing in front of the computer and say "how do I fork the code?".

[–] agentant@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm contacting the Twink Union about this!

[–] Dort_Owl@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

The twink union said that you can join but you have to wear the cat ears

That's the secret third thing
