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.

So many people in here are assuming the OP on 4chan is massively depressed and being sarcastic about the "Yup life is good" comment. Kinda seems "extraversion-normativity" in here.
Many folks are "over-socialized" too.
Yeah, that honestly sounds pretty good to me. I'm married, so I get plenty of social interaction between work and my wife, so that lifestyle would be great for me. In fact, I really enjoyed the COVID lockdowns because I was able to limit my socializing to a few video calls here and there.
Now that COVID lockdowns are a thing again, I'm constantly drained because it seems like everyone wants to go out and do stuff, when I'd like to just read a book or something.
Four years without contact from another human being is not healthy, doesn't matter if you are an introvert.
Pretty sure that's how we got the unibomber
I think that had more to do with the government intentionally breaking him, psychologically, as part of MK Ultra, while he was in college. The isolation probably did make it worse though.
I mean hiring a prosecutor from Boston to disagree and personally attack him definitely did not help
It is seriously shocking how many assholes are posting here like the OPs life is something to pity and needs to change.
Literally the point of the post is to demonstrate this is a gigachad perspective.
Some of us don’t need constant external validation from people to avoid turning into a psychotic mentally ill mess.
Some of us ain’t as weak as y’all and would rather not interact with other people. Especially people like y’all who immediately assume everyone around you must change their lives to suit yours.
Everyone posting about how this person needs to change should take a serious evaluation at their own narcissism.
For being extroverts, y’all sure are a bunch of fucking assholes.
I would ask "who hurt you?" but solitude can be damaging for one's mental health too. No, seriously, I get the point you want to make but not having talked to any other person for 4 years is not healthy either. It looks like you have internalized a lot of these things that you wrote about and the way you talk about them doesn't look like you can find whatever you need too.
There isn't medical professional on earth that would agree that 4 years, without human contact, is healthy.
