VLC media player is always there for you. Windows Video can't open a .mov file? VLC. Want to watch a ripped DVD? VLC. Music, images, file conversions, streaming, audio, subtitles? VLC.

And you can get it on every device you need.

Get a new computer and want to run with the defaults for a bit? That's fine, but who do you always go back to? VLC doesn't care if you run with another program for a while. Not in the sense that it doesn't care about you, but more it knows you need space to try something new sometimes, and it's always ready for you to come back.

VLC also never asks anything of you. No dontations, no signups, maybe it needs an update every now and then, that's all.

VLC is just always there. It thinks it's in the background, but I notice its hard work. VLC is like the Garrus of media players. It was always there for you, and when you get your heart broken by another program, it's still there. Because it was always there for you.

In so many words, what I'm trying to say is; I want to ***** that traffic cone **** my *****.

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:

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
