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

He's ranting on Elon Musk's X.com right now about how GDQ is the perfect example of "go woke, go broke" and that they should unban RwhiteGoose.

Oh no, I'm missing a lot of context here. What did Rwhitegoose do? I still watching his channel and don't know about any uncouth affiliations or past actions

Sorry to ruin the fun but he's an actual Nazi.

Oh wow, I think I got through 20 pictures before my phone loaded some useless ass imgur image and wouldn't let me go back. Yeah that's fucking horrible, I'm unsubscribing right now. I love speedrun videos and always enjoyed his quite a bit, but wow that's not even in the plausible deniability range. I didn't expect there to be hundreds of screenshots of him being the worst person alive, goddamn

Check out Summoning Salt if you haven't already

Karl Jobst essentially started making the exact same kind of video to rwhitegoose for a couple years, so that's a good one to check out. I like the stuff he makes now too but he literally did a bunch of "history of a specific GoldenEye level world records" videos too.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I knew I was forgetting one! I scrolled through my subscribed list and didn't see him (must've scrolled over). Karl Jobst is solid as well, seconded.

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Karl isn't the best either. He was on the discord server with RWhiteGoose and was a "white people should be able to say the n-word" guy. He does seem to have rehabbed a bit though.

[–] CA0311@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I remember some people were mad at Karl for stealing the speed running video shtick and not sticking his neck out for his buddy. I don't know anything about Karl personally tho, I just love the speed run cheating investigation videos. They are always really interesting intestigation stories and also the technical stuff isn't too beyond my comprehension (like I also like to watch displaced gamers and retro game mechanics explained, but some of the videos I don't actually understand because I don't really know how code works lol)

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 1 points 5 months ago

Yeah, I still watch Karl because the technical aspects of how speedrunning cheaters get caught is fascinating to me. Just mentioning that he isn't entirely unproblematic. I can't think of any speed/challenge run creators where I know anything about them outside of their content and it's a good thing lol.

[–] CA0311@hexbear.net 1 points 5 months ago

I don't know where to find it but he did record a little clip after all that came out where he said he's not racist anymore and he learned not to be racist because he had normal interactions with non-white people at the local Tim Horton's lol

Like a 35 year old dude concerned about the "Jewish question" on his discord for years would somehow have his worldview shaken only a month after it came out, and the instigating factor would be a brown guy holding the door open for him at a Toronto Timmy's lol

I still watch his videos sometimes because nobody is making that kind of content about less popular n64 games, but I watch them in a way that YouTube doesn't recognize for algorithm or revenue purposes

Oh man that's... blatant

I get the whole Nazi Speedrunner angle, but what did serial abuser and sex pest Bill Murray do now?

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 5 points 5 months ago

Fake Bill Murray quote is the current meme being driven into the ground here on /c/badposting.
