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.

Stardew Valley for the most part does pixel art right, but it's always jarring to see the player character's weird skinny fishing line. It's worst when it's juxtaposed with other characters whose lines are drawn correctly:
That massive fish is also a bit jarring. Usually SDValley kinda works though because of the tiling. Wasn't that game also almost entirely made by one dude?
I think that fish (and the trout tag on the left side of the screen) may just have been screenshotted mid-catch. In the game, when you catch a fish you fling it through the air in an arc and then it lands in your hands:
That catch animation doesn't show it, (maybe it's from an earlier version of the game?), but I'm pretty sure the current version scales the sprite bigger and then smaller as it travels through its arc as sort of a 3D special effect.
it's a mod
The massive fish (and several other on-screen elements) are modded additions, not from ConcernedApe.
That’s a great spot and I tried to picture it but couldn’t so I also appreciate the screenshot
