PSL not good? (hexbear.net)
submitted 4 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Just saw the new Fred Flinstone vid about pumpkin spice lattes. He had this kind of aside about not drinking PSL (along with another one against drinking flavored coffee drinks which just seemed needlessly pedantic).

I was really surprised, so I tried looking further, and he linked some aggregate in the comments which leads to a podcast and a huge google doc with a bunch of links to different criticisms and summaries of Starbuck's sugary coffee drinks from late 2020 or so. Covering up how bad their coffee actually tastes with sugar and artificial flavors and apparently Fred Flinstone going on a misogynistic rant in some Hexbear posts. And generally a very anti-femme theme.

Anyways, I was just wondering what the Hexbear take is here. Was it a group of misogynistic posters? Just one weirdo with a Hanna-Barbera fetish? I was considering trying a pumpkin spice latte when they come back this fall, but maybe it would just spike my blood sugar.

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
