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

Nobody talks about how J K Rowling ruined the Google search results for treacle tart recipes. (hexbear.net)

I'm from the UK (but born to one of the victims of its colonialism, so don't mock me, I'm destroying the country from within), and I've been living abroad the last 11 years.

Believe it or not, there is actually some decent British food. Treacle tart is one thing that I miss, and I've tried to make it a few times. Unfortunately some TERF just had to ruin it by making it the favorite dessert of the protagonist in her overrated fantasy series.

Thanks to her, I now have to scroll through reams of sites full of fanboy gushing that don't even have the decency to list out the ingredients in grams. Without fail, the top 5 results will always be like "Oh muh god, Harry Potter! Go Hermione. Ten points to Griffindor. Oh, I'm such a Hufflepuff. Anyway, here's the recipe in a system that requires a tool that isn't available in most of the fucking world, because I, like the only other people left in this fandom, am a narcissist who stayed just to see innocent people being harmed."

Thanks, but I still need to take the opportunity to drag a TERF.
