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

Lady (Marianne?) waving an EU flag riding a bull. https://www.derstandard.at/story/3000000259747/cartoons-maerz

Edit - Or maybe it's Europa riding Zeus. If only it were Garrisonly labeled.

Oh, I thought it would be China, but like, an evil authoritarian depiction of them. This is somehow even dumber than that.

Of course, it comes from that lib paper. The newspaper was founded because the publisher wanted to have a kind of New York Crimes™ in Austria.

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 5 points 5 days ago

It was an already edited post in memes. Someone else made it they were running to China. The real original was probably the scientists running to Europe somewhere

Taking a wild guess, but the Canadian border?

Okay but if it has a mouth why isn’t the mouth where the paste comes out

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 6 points 5 days ago

Does paste come out of your mouth? Mouths are for putting things in, not for squeezing things out.

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 5 points 5 days ago

The mouth is for other things we don't talk about
