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.

Controversial opinion: the Internet didn't die, you just got left behind.
Gotta keep up. The edge of culture is always moving and trying to stay put is a guarantee that you'll miss out.
The community of memes is more varied and nuanced than leekspin ever was. There's more lowbrow comedy sure but there's more of all types of content.
If you only see shit you hate online it's your fault. Go find places you enjoy (for me that's lemmy, as an example) and teach your algorithm to stop showing you rage bait by not falling for it.
Tiktok has plenty of problems but if you teach the algorithm that the only reason you're there is absurdism and the bizarre: you'll end up with an absurd and bizarre feed.
For real. Dude is claiming old memes used to be creative while using leek spin as the example.
