But not for me

I rate this one 7/10, humorous imagery with an appeal to bygone meme culture of the early 10's, an underrated gem

Another underrated gem, a mid to high 7/10. This post's title is derived from a contemporary post to c/games here. The jumbling of words adds a humorous twist to the original and conveys the absurdity and triteness of the well-trodden discussion of skill in Dark Souls, an objectively bad game.

I give this one a light to mid 8/10. A humorous take on the discussion of "freedom of speech" in online spaces, the dialogue highlights the harm that proponents of "free speech" seek to do in expressing their ideas while feigning a feeling of persecution when they're called out for their harm.

One of the few posts with a broader popular appeal as seen in the upbeat count, and for good reason. I rate this one a high 8/10, possibly a light 9/10. The subtext is obvious - how ridiculous it is to seek approval in a forum meant for posting terrible quality posts. However, there is a nuance missed here - the high burden bad posters face of balancing the bad with the humorous, a puzzling tension that has stayed many hands from posting. "Is my post too bad to post to bad posting? Or is it too funny and possibly meant for main or the dunktank?" Who can say, really?

Brilliant, high 9/10, maybe one of the only 10/10 ratings I can give. It's so bad, it belongs to the com, but so good the user should likely be banned. There's so many things that could be said about this, but I'll just sum up -

For too long have I sat to lurk,

Stayed in the corner to cry and jerk,

To me the thought never occurred,

My posting too is meant to be heard

Yet here I am to yell and shout,

All my thoughts as I cease to pout,

Surely now my posting never ends,

Surely now is my finger always on 'send'

Now you and them saved the refugee outpost and [unintelligible] so now - well there's still that big bad guy out there and we have to do something about it and - ah well I'm getting ahead of myself. The head of defense at the refugee camp calls you over and yeah he's standing well he has a mean look but he's really sh- a short guy and ah - well anyways, he says something like "you did that. You did it. You really saved us and do you think the other guy could have done that? No, I mean look at me. There's this reward here and I think I'll give it to you".

And guess what? This du- this guy who is short, he turns out he's Russ- I'm sorry, sorry, I mean he's a goblin and you've been fooled. Doesn't feel so good does it? So now roll for initiative.

To continue make to sure that contientn that of Europe, I - I'll tell you. I got call from then at Kissinger 10 days before he alive was and and. He the following said since not the Napoleon has Europe at Russia looked over its head at dread with that Europe is - look what Russia may the do until now. Until now, now I you and can't let that change. Look at me, I can take you.

INTERVIEWER: Excellent, next question -

Lol. Lmao.

I thought you guys were all about liberation, but you're so worried about the words I choose to use and how I say them.

Look, if I say Š̸̸̞̟ͦ̚_̴̶̶̴̡̛̮͍͕̮͓̺̩̪̬̦̖̻̑͊̽̎̄̏ͧ̐͋ͤ̆͛͘͢͝ͅU̢̦̜̗̩͔̼͎̱͋ͤͭ̊̔̊͒̈͋̑͘̕͝B̪͚̳̞ͤ͌ͬ̈́ͦͣM̸̳͎̞ͬ̊̔̔͐I͔̻͈͗͆ͪͫͯ̊̈́ͤ̽͟͝_̷̬̼͖̬̞̟̾́̔̈́̓͌ͅT̶̶̷̟͔̗̬͋ͦ̅͛͆̒̽ͯͮ_̬̟͚̠̰͖͖̀͌̓̽́͘ͅ then that's just me speaking my mind.

Roll for sanity

It's a charging station that's shaped like a table so that people can stand and gather around it (there are no chairs). It's aluminum and has no cover above it so people can easily find it. The ports are also on top of the table facing up for the same reason. It's located on the sidewalk by an intersection for ease of access. The table is constantly and slowly rotating so people don't have to jostle around the table for a free spot. There's also a chat gpt interface to look up information, mainly location information, in case your phone has died (there's no display of any kind).

What if it was the avocado technique?
