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.

Right. Unless something about them is actually represented as a teen, it's pretty natural to just fit them into whatever demographic you're in.

This applies to the 9000 year old dragon loli, too. If they're not portrayed as an ancient elder dragon, and just portrayed as a little girl, they're just a little girl.

Yeah. This character looks identical to every adult in the show she's in, so it's easy to forget that she's canonically 15. I can forgive someone calling her their waifu. Still gross, still weird, but not upsetting. It's very hard to forget that this character is a middle schooler, and if you call her your waifu, you are a problem.

Careful with that edge, old man.

Yeah, the comment is much better without that second paragraph. Sorry to make yours look out of context after editing it

I have no idea who this character is from, but just from that picture I would have no idea how old they would be intending to represent. I could be from 12 to like 25. If there's more context in the show, sure. But that's kind of my point.
