badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is not a [email protected] 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 know people rightfully shit on the adaption for missing the point of the story. But I always found that the story itself seems to ignore the fact that these vampires still fucking eat people. Like we can be all "Oh he's the real monster", but they're literally cannibals and constantly try to eat him and taunt him about his dead family.

I never got the idea it was about who the real monster is but rather that monstrosity is about perspective. Humans are extinct, he is the mythical creature that comes in the day and will kill you if you're bad.

His actions are not really different from the vampires, from necessity they hate and kill each other not recognising the humanity shared.
