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.

Don’t believe social media

Don't believe what you see on social media. Nothing is ever as good as it seems.

Exactly. I knew people that pretended to have a great life on social media and in person. I looked up to them. But when I spent enough time around them, I realized it was an act. They were actually miserable, hated each other, hated their jobs, had no real friends, were dependent on substances, and focused their efforts on what others thought about them. It was all a show.

In my experience, people that have awesome lives don't spend their time showing it off on social media. They're relatively quiet there because they're busy living their awesome lives and don't have time to spend on making sure others know it. People that are showy and care too much what others think also don't tend to have awesome lives because they waste their efforts on useless matters rather than building an awesome life. It's a self-sustaining trap.

Turbonerds on 4chan don't understand real life things

As in: it's a straight family with a subservient wife and a working husband and children.

Welcome to 4ch×n. 🤡

Anon would be fine if his big strong bully was into men.

And you can see them again at your next traffic stop.

That’s because your weenie dad was too scared to even try to prevent the bully from raping your mom at the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance.

It’s pretty a pretty fucked up plot point when you think about it.

My last fight was in 1979 when I got jumped by a kid in the locker room after gym class. The kid went on to become chair of the Physics department at Berkeley. Pisses me off more than a little.

Mine got stabbed and died when he tried to assault the guy his ex gf was shacked up with.

That's because you didn't go back in time yet, silly.
