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.

It's almost as if there was some kind of zone of moderation distancing from which may be considered inadequate

Also they 100% talk about their job all of the time and it's the entirety of their personality.

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 9 points 3 weeks ago

This is kind of reminding me of addiction, it's the same pattern of either doing it to 100% or not at all, there's no moderation possible. Usually if you're predisposed to that you'll bring that pattern into everything in your life not just substances (but probably mainly substances).

First [Goldilocks] tasted the porridge of the Great Big Bear, and that was too hot for her. Next she tasted the porridge of the Middle-sized Bear, but that was too cold for her.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 17 points 3 weeks ago

Then, she gave up and complained on the internet asking what the hell is wrong with porridge?

Oh you mean Daddy and Mummy bear, those particular bears were a hetero-normative family unit. Not that there's any problem with alternative lifestyles.

Fuck the haters and do what you want

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago

Unfortunately when I do what I want, i eventually become destitute and homeless. Again.

I think 4chan needs some kind of online university with classes for writing and grammar. They could call it chanacademy.

[–] 0laura@lemmy.dbzer0.com 35 points 3 weeks ago

nah that's just the format. it's a greentext. I love them

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 8 points 3 weeks ago

They're too busy getting their lessons from FakerU.

Same thing happened to me. Except now I'm old and have had no fun experiences in life because all I do is work and shitpost on Lemmy. Never been on a plane or gone on a vacation. Foreveralone single while my bank account keeps growing larger. Hell my will has my estate being donated to my local library because I don't even have friends anymore to leave it to.

[–] SacralPlexus@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Might I suggest you take a vacation now?

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I wouldn't even know where to begin. I'm terrified of crowds and enclosed spaces, so a plane is out. I've been spending a lot of time outdoors, though, and that has been nice.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 6 points 3 weeks ago

National parks are amazing

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago

Then go by car (if u don't see that as enclosed)? One doesn't need to circumvent the globe to travel.

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

when i saw a question mark i thought you were going to ask for the estate

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

That was an option?! ^/j^

[–] CouldaBeen_TheBest@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Sounds like you don't have any worldly desires. Maybe consider making some bad decisions and ruining your life.

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 weeks ago

I've been talking with a poly couple on the other side of the state and I'm planning to take a train ride to get, well, "train rode". Does that count?

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Never been on a plane or gone on a vacation.

Just go outside, it's the same wherever you are planning to go. People desperate for your fiat currency so they can purchase necessities for the future wage slaves they are raising.

[–] unknown1234_5@kbin.earth 14 points 3 weeks ago

moderation buddy, you just overcorrected a little.

Haters abound. Always. Everywhere. Keep your head up and your ears closed, and trek on one foot in front of the other.

[–] stinky@redlemmy.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

the answer is capitalism

[–] god@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

I like to work sometimes. Most of the time I prefer not to work, though. Money though, I do like that.
