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

posad This bipedal animal wishes to terminate the cluster of fertilized cells long before they reach any sort of consciousness.

posad That is the fault of the being which carries the fertilized cells. That being should have not practiced mating intercourse if it did not want to procreate. They must raise the young to completion no matter the external circumstances.

posad the-doohickey I am going to terminate your life for that opinion.

I think the guy just sails on the concept i think i saw on xkcd of: no matter how popular something is there's still thousands of people for whom it's the first time seeing it.

Very funny the first couple times then you forget about them

This is dead-on, if I'm being honest I do think that comic is pretty cute every time I see it after having had a year or so to forget that it exists.

"I have made a comic which attempts comedy via blatant self reference and deprivation."

"Making this mockery of ourselves allows us to engage in the same modes of behavior while also feeling self aware and coyly intelligent."

"Yes I am aware of my irritating habit."

wasnt this comic turning/turned into a tv show with the same premise

[–] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah I was just thinking how amazing that is - I never heard a thing about it after reading it was getting made

A friend and I were scrolling through options on the TV, she played the trailer and we both agreed that the joke would get old after 10 mins so we decided against watching it.

I saw the first episode. It was alright. Nothing spectacular in terms of animation.

[–] daniyeg@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

most web comics and weekly comics are unfunny like this. unfortunate reality of weekly comics is that you mostly have to restate the premise. those that are actually funny and constantly fresh are very very few.

Bill Watterson really was on a whole other level.
