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

i hope we all know this and are just doing it as a bit, but sometimes i do see shit on this website that makes me go "oh ya'll are genuinely convinced he exists"

"danny devito" is not real, matilda is an incredibly niche film that very few people have seen.

"frank reynolds" is basically non existent and has been witnessed by such a small portion of the population as to not be relevant. the idea that most people have in their heads about frank reynolds is propaganda made up by unfunny white guys.

we do not live in a world where philadelphia is actually always sunny. there is not an excess of dvds or blu-rays of it.

most of the time when people talk about "danny devito" what they're actually talking about is a mix of two unrelated people, colin farrell who also played the penguin, and wallace shawn who is also a short weird looking guy with a kooky accent.

dee is good. we should be featuring more of her. we should encourage more kaitlin olson featuring whatever lines you and your friend braden can remember. don't fall for dennis's propaganda comrades.

While a true Devito may not exist, I do believe it's necessary to create a Devito within yourself for guidance. Core human moral principles only make sense within the context of a Devito. Based on that, could we say that consciousness itself is the reification of Devito's will?

There was a historical Danny Devito, but his teachings were lost to time. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia was filmed almost a century after his death, based on an oral tradition repeating his bits, and we know that those bits have changed over that time and bear little relation to what the Historical Devito taught.

Danny Devito as you mention is a conglomeration of unrelated ancient myths. The only historical evidence (outside of hagiography written in the Philly language) would be ancient census records mentioning at least a dozen Danny Devitos all coexisting, yet none of them have been proven to be the supposed small Italian man who waves guns around.

In fact there's some evidence that the words "Danny Devito" might have simply been a phrase associated with ancient fertility festivals and not a person.

there is no evidence of a "danny devito" having ever existed do not fool yourself. any of this supposed evidence was created by dennis or his followers to convince weak minded people that danny devito exists. you are spreading false information, and i would kindly ask that you stop and reconsider your beliefs.

no you literally didn't don't lie

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

Yeah I did I pointed at him and was like “it’s Danny Devito” and then he turned around and said “I’m gonna fucking kill you” before shoving the ice cream cone in his mouth and chasing me
