badposting
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:
- 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
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- 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

Debuccalization is a form of lenition in which an oral consonant loses its original place of articulation and moves to the glottis, commonly becoming /ʔ/, /h/, or /ɦ/. Debuccalization of /s/ has happened in a number of languages and dialects, including between PIE and Greek — hence Latin sex and English six versus Ancient Greek hex (all from PIE *swéḱs). An irregular debuccalization of /s/ also gives us Finnish hän, whence the Scandinavian neopronoun hen — Finnish hän is from Proto-Uralic *sän whence also Northern Sámi son.
Debuccalization of /s/ is also present in a number of contemporary dialects of Spanish, hence why the shout of "¡Con los terroristas!" at the start of the 2012 Baauer song "Harlem Shake" is heard by many as "Colo Terorita!"; and this phenomenon is also present in a number of Southern Black American dialects of English, hence why -ass is sometimes spelled as -ahh — this debuccalized pronunciation of ass is found in e.g. the original 2006 version of the Soulja Boy Tell'Em song "Crank Dat Soulja Boy".
Thus we have our throughline between Soulja Boy, the Harlem Shake, non-binary Norwegians, and Sexbear jokes.
