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

GWAR for obvious reasons

Smashing Pumpkins just for Billy's voice (imagine to the tune of 1979)

Louis Armstrong

Unfortunately, every funny artist I think of would actually make a banger cover.

I can picture the Smashing Pumpkins version and the instrumental might be able to be good, the vocals can't

Oh he won't be good, but it will be funny!

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago

Kung Foo Fighting, kinda odd Dave Grohl didnt notice this cheesy joke and use it

i tried a lot of genres with this, there's so many bad directions that aren't funny, and several directions which are do-able covers

i'll stand by a grain of frankie lymon type doo-wop as a nexus of inherent silliness of the genre and the character of the performer combining to make the song bad in an enjoyable way

WWIII

Mostly for the Tracy G noise rock noodling factor, but Mandy Lion will also find a way to make it incredibly misogynistic

Failing that, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
