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.

The only people that believe that crap are 4channers dumb enough to believe that being an amoral asshole makes you smart. The reddit thing is true though.
For a while I was living in a student dorm in a student area. I was taking a walk when I saw one of those:
Not that particular piece of paper but one with the same text. Took me 2 minutes of googling to trace it back to /pol/.
I'm an atheist and ex Muslim, Islam ruined a large portion of my life... but I took that paper down anyway. Random person had the right to hang it on the street and I had the right to crumble and recycle it.
The statement itself wasn't the triggering part... The triggering part was 4chaners think they are smart or making some kind of "point" with a quipy and short sentence... hanging out behind a screen trying to affect the real world outside even though they often claim not to be social or get any sun at all. At least that sad 4channer got to take a walk to hang this up. It was confusing more than offensive, had to read it a few times to even get it lololol
Eh, it's illegal to post such things in many areas, so best case, you're helping enforce the law, and worst case, you're cleaning up the neighborhood.
4chan, like much of The Internet, is proof that what is lacking in society now is the ability for anyone to have the shit beaten out of them for saying absolute stupid, mean or destructive things.
People are being assholes online because in the real world they are sorely needing to have their ass handed to them for the stupid shit they say.
This is how the world worked for hundreds of years.
I curse the day the internet invented phrenology, "scientific" racism, and nationalism.
I disagree that violence would improve this in any way, but I agree that those with shitty views don't dare share their face because their views are hateful racist vomit.
It's that no one has an actual discourse in person. That would include shame and maybe some punches to she face. The internet is now the 3rd place and it's built to extract money and be addictive.

Shut up and let me quote crime statistics at you.
Just the n-word over and over again
-An intellectual on 4-chan
Shit. You just made me realize that since I left reddit I haven't seen a single "despite..." comment. Thinking about how much casual bigotry like that I'm avoiding every day puts a smile on my face.
Maybe a few decades ago. Right now 4chan is an actual cesspool, not a fake one anymore.
When has 4chan been not a cesspool? Its just that once a decade they decide to weaponise their autism and do something massive.
Damn double whammy I feel personally attacked

Whether or not the perspective given here is valid, it's inarguably really low-empathy
yeah this dude is kinda exemplifying 4chan
"You don't have it any better. You don't have it any worse. We are each our own irreplaceable, human soul with our own understanding of what it means to suffer. And that's a huuuuuuuuuuge bummerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
Not everyday you see some AJJs lyrics.
What's "strooglers"?
Like a glizzy but more gay
Is it just me or is slang sounding more and more like random words pulled out of a Dr. Seuss book?
What would normal people be but normal?
