badposting
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

English is a terrible language, that's what you get when you cram Latin, German, and French together and mix in vocabulary stolen from around the world. Nothing makes sense, nothing is pronounced phonetically, and it's the only language in the world (that I'm aware of) that has spelling contests since everything is so unintuitive!
The spelling is bad mostly due to internal pronunciation changes in the language which weren’t reflected by updates to the spelling. That foreign spelling aren’t changed to match the native ones is largely due to the fact that the native ones had already become detached from pronunciation and speakers had developed a tolerance for ambiguity.
We might also be the only language where people have to use a thesaurus.
don't you forget gaelic, which is where english gets the usage of "do" with personal pronouns in a way that's generally omitted in latin, german, and french.
French has spelling contests too but more because of the fucked up grammar
I don't respect fr*nch enough to think about it. Just thinking about "oiseau" makes me annoyed
