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.

Well yeah, it's a slice of life, not the Hero's Journey.

This motherfucker when their wife tells them about their day: there was no beginning, middle, or end; the climax wasn't revealed in chronological order; the hero is clearly a Mary-Sue...

Its totally the heros journey, libertarian fanfic, long john silvers AU

Long John silvers gold?

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Could've made it more interesting though

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah could've added some fiction at the end like a cute girl walks in and they live happily ever after.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

Idk about adding, I would've just changed what is already there to be more interesting

One of the more believable greentexts I’ve read, and likely for this reason.
