This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Hundreds of thousands of people die every day, get over it

What an obnoxiously shitty take. You can say then when some senile celebrity dies thousands of kilometers away from you, not to someone whose local community has suffered mass tragedy.

It's a greentext, it's likely fiction

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

is mass tragedy worse than watching your father choke to death slowly on his own fluids?

[–] ddplf@szmer.info 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Not comparable at all. Not without context anyways.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

what if my dad was the one who caused the mass tragedy?

[–] ddplf@szmer.info 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Then you’d better ask your local covenant whether a curse has been cast upon your bloodline, as your father’s deeds may affect your fate

oh, i have been undoing his curse my entire life.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

that's less of a curse and more of a stain

Ah, shitty parents are grand

Which is what I will tell you when one of your loved ones died.

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 1 points 2 weeks ago

My nan's dying either today or tomorrow and that's just life.
