It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

They have a very different view of what constitutes an unsafe space, for the last day or so every time I saw a username with pronouns my whole body would tighten up, my asshole would go rogue and start sputtering out diarrhea farts like coughs from a terminal covid patient. Every fiber of my body would vibrate. One time I blacked out and woke up to find myself running through the halls of a Motel 6. Nobody seemed to mind until I jumped into the pool from a second floor balcony, shitting the entire time and racing my liquid fecal matter to the water. I landed in a cloud of diarrheal mist, emerging from the slop a changed person. I hate that they made me feel that way about something that should be good. I will not miss them.

Not every poopoo time is pronoun time, but every pronoun time is now poopoo time.

I hate that they made my asshole try to speak like Speed Buggy. I will not miss them.

They got me out here like Steamy Ray Vaugn, filling my britches.

The Hexbears literally filled my diaper with my own shit. The clothespins I was using to secure it popped and it fell apart, releasing a torrent of fetid waste upon my Herman Miller chair.

When you're sitting in your Herman Miller

And the hexbears ascend like Michael Jackson's Thriller

if you're blue and you don't know where to go to after the pronouns make you wince

jump in pools of shit

Holy shit is that a motherfricking The Deprogram reference

the humour here is like a snake eating its own ass thinking-about-it, mostly circular, but when it opens up to accept more humour something apocalyptic happens

true story, I was the pool. I haven't felt clean since.

I keep seeing this emoji and I'm still not quite sure what it means.

It's Kelly. He's a political(?) cartoonist for the online newspaper theonion.com . The Onion is satire, as is Kelly. Here are his cartoons.

sicko-yes Is also from there.

Edit: He does snide asides as his cartoon avatar, often with wordplay. That's usually what people are invoking when using this emote.

Oh fuck. I never actually realized he was an Onion writer. I thought he was just some weird right-wing comic artist we latched on to ironically. I am a fool!

ohnoes

It’s the self insert character on the Onion webcomics by Kelly (don’t know his first name). He does wordplay.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So basically it means acknowledging a pun?

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 year ago

Yeah. Or if someone is proud of a pun, they can put it alongside their own comment.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

it's "thanks, Dad" but more positive

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

Stan Kelly, the political cartoonist persona/pseudonym of Ward Sutton.
