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

I've seen struggle sessions you wouldn't even believe... New Coke vs Coke Classic, Garfield or Heathcliff, which Legends of the Hidden Temple contestant was most problematic later in life, wheat vs white toast... All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

wheat vs white toast

Should be rye vs sourdough

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 1 points 15 hours ago

Rye is great but a solid sourdough is unbeatable (i have never made my own rye)

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 21 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

You're making some of these up.

Posting a list of struggle sessions and daring people to find the one made up one would be a good bit

[–] culpritus@hexbear.net 16 points 23 hours ago

leaving out the two biggest ones makes this chefs-kiss badpost

The shortstack goblin struggle session.

I must have missed this one, approximately 20% of my work is drawing shortstack goblins.

The less said about the al dente struggle session the better.

[–] XiaCobolt@hexbear.net 10 points 22 hours ago

I remember like 3 distinct Falklands struggle sessions.

I remember kink at pride.

I remember from the old Reddit chapotraphouse days the mattress on the floor struggle session.

the she/her straight boy struggle session

[–] Big@hexbear.net 1 points 14 hours ago

I miss the judy hopps struggle sessions.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 5 points 20 hours ago

Is it a struggle session if it is one person struggling against the rest of the community? How many people on each side does a struggle need before it becomes a true session and not just an argument or dogpile? What if someone is correct about something, but really annoying about it and people start fights with them because they are annoying? Is that still a struggle session?

Where's the Switch 2 Boycott struggle session?

[–] WokePalpatine@hexbear.net 7 points 23 hours ago

I thought there was a consensus on that.
