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.

Honestly, the only thing that registered for me was that Caleb didn't object to race being in the story until the second guy was brought up.

I don't think Freckles, the other character, was declaring a type preference though, I think they were just communicating the race of both guys as set dressing for the story ("you know how I like a little x" to me just sounds like a playful double down, but I really dont actually know, you do have a point here, but it seems ambiguous at best to me right now. I would have to ask the writers what they meant for me to be satisfied now haha good call out though!)

The only reason I posted it was because it seemed that Freckles was saying essentially the same thing as the person I was responding to. Race isn't a bad thing to include, it's only bad when you're being an asshole about it, essentially.
