badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net 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

Instead of a bit being a 0 or a 1, they can be a 5 or 6.

Disgracing the tomb of the unknown solider

Grok but instead of white genocide he constantly feels the need to discuss people posting a photo of a pig pooping on it's own balls on hexbear dot net.

J-D-P-O-N-D-O-N a la Saturday Night by City Rollers I just can't get any other lyrics down beyond "J-D-P-O-N-D-O-N Hey!"

pretend to be a ridiculously unhinged anti-communist on lemmy to annoy everybody into being more sympathetic to us. Unfortunately the my cm0002 account just keeps getting upvotes, so I will need to rethink my strategy.

[–] mayo_cider@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

Every once in a while I get an urge to respond with a five page tankie essay just for the meme

I usually get bored after the third reference

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago

I posted in one of these threads before and my bit was too bad and it got deleted. Fool me twice and you can't fool me again

Convince Trump that the Statue of Liberty should undergo restoration to make her prettier.

[–] 9to5@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago

Give the statue some big ol bazoogas

[–] 7bicycles@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago

torx plus but with 2 non-opposing spines slightly shortened so you can only fit the bit in one exact way

[–] D61@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

A driver bit that instantly strips the head of any screw you try it on.

[–] 7bicycles@hexbear.net 6 points 2 weeks ago

barely ovular-shaped drill bits with spherical tips. Nintendo and Apple will the the first adopters.

[–] 7bicycles@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

I'm not sure if I'm missing the joke here but these exist. those automated coffee machines use them

[–] 30_to_50_Feral_PAWGs@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago

Open a haunted house where I jump-scare people and if they react at all, I scoff and call them a transphobe.

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yakub with inventing white people. Worst bit of all time.

[–] rubber_chicken@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago

0 but it's permanent and can't be overwritten. View a screen full of them and you've bricked your monitor.

[–] GrafZahl@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago

Not my original idea but, what if a bit had three possible states instead of two?

[–] userofnames@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago

Philips PH-2

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I set up hundreds of different accounts to post to make this otherwise dead forum "Hexbear" seem alive. Honestly it's just me and like one other user posting.

[–] durruticore@hexbear.net 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

damn. so it is just me and you?

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Suuuuure, you're totally not my alt owl-wink

engage in serious newsmega discourse but talk like the ‘soz mate’ guy

[–] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago (5 children)

I really want to find a nemesis on Hexbear. Them and I could shit on each other in the comments randomly and everyone would just think "why the fuck do ButtBidet and SovietTruckDriver hate each other so much". Like there's a news post and one of use would go "this is almost as bad as the time that ButtBidet ...."

Too involved of a bit to do it, though.

This is like Lenin talking about Kautsky lol

Edit: or we could all collectively invent a Stirner for you to inveigh against

Yo fuck you asshole!

This is the shit I'm talking about. ButtBidet always comes up with the most F-tier, dogshit bits

"SovietTruckDriver, almost like AssTruckDriver"

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Zuzak@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That is a bad bit, very confusing.

How would an actual owl like yourself "pretend" to be an owl? Doesn't make any sense.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What if I confuse everyone by pretending to be an human pretending to be a owl?
