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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

come on guys it's been a day and a bit... I only click on these to see how it gets explained as fake and gay
Well because you asked... It's fake because if you're a native New Yorker (or I assume if you've lived there long enough) you become numb to the nose and stop hearing it. And probably more importantly, people scream at the top of their lungs in NYC all the damn time, New Yorkers DO. NOT. RESPOND. YOU DO NOT LOOK. YOU IGNORE. Eye contact is a great way to get assaulted by a homeless person who is possibly dealing with psychosis.
Lastly NO ONE in New York uses the phrase "badda bing badda boom", that's some lame Hollywood trope, I've literally never heard anyone use it in real life.
Hey now, that's not fair. In NYC, it's also a great way to get scammed by fake monks.
They tried this on me once. I autistically kept going back and forth with them on whether or not it was "free," not understanding they wwre trying to scam me till I got frustrated walked away with the stack. 5 free books that day.
okay now why is it gay?
OP was seeking the attention of a greasy dude in a tank top
And even if not directly seeking it, he got pleasure from a greasy dude in a tank top.
