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

I don't get the reference tbh
A Scanner Darkly is a novel by Philip k Dick and adapted to screen by Richard Linklater in this rotoscoped movie featuring Meany Reeves.
It's about an undercover cop trying to bust a drug ring and ends up taking so many drugs he completely disassociates his undercover self from his work self and forgets who he is, to the point he doesn't realise it's him being arrested at the end.
It's not Dick's best work but it's an interesting premise and has some good moments of druggie paranoia in it

I had the dog in me all along
the W in Wmill stands for "Woof"

One of the few Hexbear histories I've been present for
We're all Cowbee's alt.
Lmao. I wrote "we're all" and my keyboard suggested "Cowbees alt".

There's layers to it like

Bmf
you're zposter
I don't quite know who that is tbh
wait, you've never heard of zposter? They used to be super active, and were at the heart of so many controversies
Basically, they really, really supported Russia. Hence, z poster (or zed proclaimer, or the number of other names they took with new accounts)
I guess they were mostly active on the News mega, that might be it
Yeah I stay mostly in every other mega but news tbh
I forgot who I am
That's alright means you can reinvent yourself, being alive means being dynamic and ever changing

Hello me, we're so cleaver and smart 
You laugh but he wrote an Odyssey or something
There really is a Simpsons moment for everything
whenever I see a simpsons caption or even a futurama one I know it’s flakesbongler time without looking, but then sometimes when it’s from a different user I’m like ohhh huh!
I welcome it
More Simpsons = more better
I'm your alt, but in a doppleganger way, not the posting way.
