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

you have pissed off every puppygirl on the site catgirl-huh

I've met more than one person who loves dogs and has an absolutely fanatical hatred of cats, but I've never seen the inverse. I'm not sure what's going on there.

The only trustworthy position is a person who likes cats and dogs, but LOVES capybaras, and is iffy on humans

[–] lil_tank@hexbear.net 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I've never thought about this but now that you said it I think you're right. I know dog-fearing cat lovers but that's not the same thing it's true that dogs can be scary

[–] chgxvjh@hexbear.net 1 points 7 minutes ago

Cats would be scary too if they were large adult child sized.

Those people get a dog purely for the joy of ordering something around that cant choose otherwise and get a kick out of a creature liking them for no good reason. Cats are antithetical to that because they wont do what you want ever.

Not saying all dog people are like that though, many are super chill but I have met a lot of extremely unpleasant dog people whereas cat fanatics are just silly like me. For negative feelings towards dogs its mostly not trusting other people’s dog until I know they dont want maul me to death while the owner laughs or something.

9 out of 10 dog people are like "haha the dog is just playing it would never hurt anyone". 1 out of 10 dog people is like "why would you even think about walking past my dog this closely, do you want to loose a limb".

AWOOF Awoof. Its true dog treats made me vote for Donald Trump twice

[–] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 1 points 5 hours ago

It's true. My dog is a conservative. I try to avoid discussing politics with her.

[–] MasterBlaster@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

cats have zero organizational potential, they simply will scheme for a little treat. dogs are capable of a great deal for a little treat, giving them marginal organizational potential

Cats are lumpen

cats are reactionary when they see a cucumber and jump straight up

cats are revolutionary when they fall off something and spin to right themselves

dogs are reactionary when they see a squirrel

dogs are revolutionary when they chase their tail

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 6 points 9 hours ago

My mum likes to watch the squirrels in her back garden and feed them peanuts.

My mum's cat likes to chase the squirrels in his back garden and try to eat them.

I have watched a middle aged woman have a struggle session with a cat more times than I'd like to admit to.

Is this going to be in the test?

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 6 points 11 hours ago

Yes, when the revolution comes, you'd better know one lectic per member of the global proletariat.

[–] muad_dibber@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 9 hours ago

Many people have been saying this

This, but it’s cat people and dog people (not catgirl-happy or doggirl-thumbsup)

[–] chgxvjh@hexbear.net 2 points 3 hours ago

cat lady, cat girl, girl cat

It gets quite confusing

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 9 points 12 hours ago

I'm a cat person but I do enjoy myself a good cute dog as well.

dogs are workers
ever heard of a guide cat? that's what i thought


[–] chgxvjh@hexbear.net 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

A guide cat will do fine as long as you are willing to go where the cat wants to go.

a few years ago I was looking for fish in a market in a place I didn't live in, so I followed a random cat around and got to the fish market.
