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

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, well, it is quite stinky, you are right.

The {山海经|Shanhai Jing} 'Classic of Mountains and Rivers' is full of these kind of animals. It's like 'It resembles a monkey but it has four fingers on one hand and its dung is toxic' or 'It looks like a centipede with patterns that resemble a human face'

It seems that Japanese still uses 枭 as their kanji for owl, with the reading fukuro. The stigma persists for our unfairly maligned owl folk

That is the natural order of things. Saturn devouring his son is a modern perversion. Retvrn to eating your parents.
