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.

You make a valid point about sources when making a random throwaway comment.

Thanks for the link, I see what you mean about what we eat affecting our skin and it makes perfect sense. You're right that it's not your responsibility for other people to think outside of themselves but you could be a catalyst for it, which is something I strive for.

I like to give people the tools for them to think about any given topic and in real life I'll often even say that I don't want a reply to a question I posit them. I find people might be more truthful to themselves if they don't feel the need to justify themselves to me.

I think your comment was probably misconstrued as you saying that sunscreen is useless and it's all about diet when you obviously didn't say nor mean that. I admit on first read I misread it that way as well and was curious about your stance. Thanks for having a conversation with me bud, hope you have a lovely day.
