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

I think blimps are probably the coolest thing ever. It fucks me up that I can't just get on a blimp rn.

Bring back sky whales dammit!

When I'm general secretary I'm bringing them back

I saw a blimp I think it was last summer, pretty neat, it went over the mountain near my home. I think it was flying to the baseball stadium.

What's that Archer line about blimps?

"Hello planes? It's blimps, you win!"

[–] JustSo@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Planecels insist you need to expend constant energy to keep people aloft or you're not "flying" you're "floating" and to them this is some important distinction.

It sounds like ego and a pathological need for control to me.

Blooners are bloomers.

Uhh... blooners are people who jerk it to balloons

Wow. I didn't know that. You're just telling me now for the first time.

I don't really get into other people's private business like that, especially not our valiant non-rigid airship workers!

Airline pilots on the other hand? Their proclivities tend to harm real people.

Ha'penny and three gold doublgoons

Archer is routinely wrong about all sorts of things including that specific blimp over and over again

It's not true it's not! Planes don't win! :(

We need our noble gasses for more important things

Like MRI machines and filling up balloons for various purposes

We just need to figure out fusion power and everything I want will be in our grasp. Shouldn't be too hard.

Hey there blimpy boy, flying through the sky so fancy free

Dododo woah

We're talking about Kirovs, right?

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 weeks ago

Blimps are peaceful creatures. They do not deserve the burden of violence. It is an abomination.

MORE AIRSHIPS

[–] Sasuke@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago

Under communism, everyone will be allowed to ride the Cheep-Cheep Blimp to Glitzville

[–] Arahnya@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago

[–] cattish@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

Blimps are bourgeoisie decadence and reactionary (I personally don't like them).
