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.

Yeah, I don't know why no dating apps. What's that about?

Probably something about the hookup culture? Strangest of the 3 imo

For sure. I met my now fiancee on a dating app, neither of us are into hookup culture. She's demisexual so it's actually the opposite for her and I'm just not interested in it. These guys are really huffing the 4chan sauce hard.

Probably true, I found my wife before dating apps were commonplace, just what I've heard from others my age, I can't imagine trying to date these days. Also kinda surprising 4chan is still around.

Yea 4chan is worse than it used to. I browse the X board which is just supernatural stuff. No kidding, 5 percent is the stuff I browse for which most people would be interested in, ghosts, cryotids, aliens, scary stories the usual stuff but X is overrun by semen retention, succubus, manifestation, literal religious nut jobs, actually literal insane conspiracies, the nobody (sounds interesting but it's actually just delusional people), divination and spirituality and any and all combinations of all these topics sprinkled with casual racism and xenophobia.

I'm not even nitpicking these are common and I just pulled up the app and saw all of the there.

I unserstand how some of these could fall under paranormal but the board is just overrun by insane posts and nobody sane could remotely believe them.
