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

My ancestry is like, the dumbest guys in Europe. We got dudes who lost everything in the English Civil War, loyalists in the American revolution who moved into Canadian land promised to slaves who rebelled to fight for the bri'ish and Bavarian guys who hit dirt with sticks for a lifetime until figuring the early 20th century would be a fantastic time to go overseas and be German, so they pretended to be Belgian a couple times because it was easier. My uncle did a whole genealogy thing when he found out he was weirdly closely related to his childhood BFF. The furthest dude on my dad's side he can find is a fella who went by the name Roundhead Smith.

Edit: between the loyalists and the war of 1812, they did kill a lot of Americans, so there's that.
