Closing out our first month of our atrociously bad publication, there has been some seriously bad Badform indeed!

So bad, in fact, it’s been super hard to decide who was badder than who, and who was the baddest of the lot of you!

Unfortunately, we could only choose one to award the July MBA (Master of BadAssery) to. Fortunately, there will be many more opportunities to win our monthly MBA, so don’t ever give up being bad, please!

And so, with that…

I give you our JULY MBA winner…

This month’s Master of BadAssery goes to Alex P.!

Alex has proven herself to be very badass with the selection of stories that she published with us during the month of July. Let’s have a look back at those bad boys.

First of all, she slammed us with this stinker that nearly took me out completely at first glance:

We then had the pleasure of this prick:

And this was rounded up with her top recommendation for a day trip while in the Kansas region:

In short, Alex proved that she works hard on her badassery and we wanted to give her recognition for that.

We had some close seconds — there really has been some serious badassery taking place and so we want to give everyone a big congrats for everything we have achieved as a community this month! Seriously BAD!

And who knows if you will be the winner of next month’s MBA?

But, for now…

The new prompt!

The prompt that will run from 30th July until 13th August was put forward by none other than badass bad boy himself, Gerald Sturgill.

Introducing…

The Bad Service

As ever, our prompts are completely open to interpretation and can be used in any way you like. It could be relating to table service, car service, broadband service (oh hell’s bells, that would bring some great stories out), delivery service…any service you like.

It could be telling the story of a service you have experienced or it could be a fictional tale you have just made up.

I know you have some great stories in there for us so let us see what you’ve got and get scribbling!

And, most of all, HAVE FUN DOING IT!

Please don’t forget to add the tag The Bad Service so we can easily find all the stories in one place.

Big, bad love to you all ❤️❤️
