Worst comm on the site run by the least funny people

Seconding this, I refuse to read comm names and sometimes it convinces me that [insert beloved celebrity] has died after smoking fent while having an IBS attack

[–] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 59 points 11 months ago (1 children)

blocking the sub improved my hexbear browsing experience a great deal

[–] GayTuckerCarlson@hexbear.net 21 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm glad I'm not the only one

I don't want to dog on the subject but the concept could be funny if the bits were quality and occasional, but it seems to be a shotgun blast of first thought stuff that is at least a workshop away from a sensible chuckle or even smirk

Don't we have enough unfunny bullshit from the greater Lemmyverse? Do we need to shit out our own too?

[–] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 24 points 11 months ago

Is virgil really a celebrity?

They got rid of the comm? Wow. This is the first I'm hearing about it. It was an amazing comm that lived an amazing life, whether you agree with it or not. I'm just hearing about this. Thank you.

why do so many people here hate fun

[–] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 40 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (4 children)

i think too many of you are afraid of having your smarty pants card revoked for believing a lie on the internet. it's not that big a deal.

[–] WALLTHERICH@hexbear.net 36 points 11 months ago

It wouldn't be a big deal if any of the posts were actually funny.

[–] GayTuckerCarlson@hexbear.net 25 points 11 months ago

It is a big fucking deal. I worked harder than a union man (very low bar) to get my smarty pants card and I'm not going to have it taken from me frothingfash

i don't like the idea of any kind of space built on pure irony/sarcasm because it always devolves into earnestness by people who don't catch the joke, or people who want to hide something insidious within the irony

maybe our beautiful mods could have handled it before it got too out of control, but I'm still just not into it

We can discuss it after you stop dealing fent. How many clientele of yours have OD'ed again because you keep listening to discord podcasts while cutting your product?

[–] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure you're joking but getting someone killed due to listening to discord podcasts sounds like something a hexbear would do.

[–] GaveUp@hexbear.net 21 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

Unless OP is lying they've been very open about pushing fent

Their operation is so large they regularly refer to it as a "fent factory"

I don't deal I just manufacture

Can we just get rid of every comm?

[–] a_blanqui_slate@hexbear.net 21 points 11 months ago
[–] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 36 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Gonna give my 2 cents. I don't particularly like that comm but I don't think it potentially causes harm as the anti union one might have.

[–] WALLTHERICH@hexbear.net 42 points 11 months ago

It doesn't cause any harm, it's just aggressively unfunny.

[–] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 28 points 11 months ago

It's literally all labeled as fake news

[–] Venus@hexbear.net 32 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've had that comm blocked since the day it was created and both its posters blocked since before it was created. Honestly baffling to me that they haven't been permabanned yet. You're not even exaggerating when you say least funny people, and they're also among the most toxic.

[–] Kuori@hexbear.net 28 points 11 months ago (3 children)

(OP is one of the mods of fakenews, just fyi)

[–] Venus@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago

Lmao ok well OP is funny so my point stands

I think it's a helpful reminder to check yourself when you're reading shit on the Internet

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 30 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Noooooooooooooooooooo

I like it bocchi-cry it's also a pretty good when it fools you to make you check yourself more often and remember to be cautious about what you see online

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago

We need 500 more posts about Tony Soprano dying

[–] Indifference_Engine@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I vote we replace it with a comm called "Fake Mews" that's just for artwork of cats!

[–] star_wraith@hexbear.net 24 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I feel like between being able to unsubscribe from comms and/or blocking users, it’s not hard to avoid it.

no it's the best celeb gossip comm on the site

[–] CA0311@hexbear.net 23 points 11 months ago

it sucks, but not as much as the union one. it's annoying and depressing to see the posts there tho. I could probably block it myself tho?

[–] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 22 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They got rid of the anti-union comm? My silly little set theory joke gone, like tears in rain.

It doesn't need to be removed because it isn't reactionary or punching down. Just block it. The anti union sub was punching down so fuck it

It being the worst comm is part of the bit

[–] Elon_Musk@hexbear.net 18 points 11 months ago

You can hide it. I hid it day 1

[–] thisonethatone@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago

Please, I hid it but it's really obnoxious.
