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.

And then everybody clapped

[–] Voyajer@lemmy.world 116 points 4 months ago (1 children)

We need a bot that comments this for every single greentext

[–] borth@sh.itjust.works 28 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That sounds fun. How hard could it be?

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 31 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Every script kiddie after a single class in uni knows how to make one. That's why reddit had so many annoying bots that did fuckall but tried to be funny.

Like that stupid reminder bot.

Jokes one everyone; it doesn’t work anymore. What happy day that was.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Reminder bot at least had a purpose and had to be manually triggered by someone to act. I'm talking about the annoying ones, like the spelling bot, it just scraped as much as it could, looked for common spelling errors and corrected people. Good thing bots were getting banned left and right. People aren't original. When on /freefolk the Bobby bot got successful via a meme, there were like 10 other copycats the next week, made by people who didn't know that nobody called the character "bobby" unless they wanted to invoke it. So then, a bot would pop up for writing Tyrion, Cersei, Tywin, etc, which were used always, since it was a fandom subreddit.

I liked the spelling bots. You can always just spell "you're" correctly. Or never use it and just use "you are" every time you can.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Okay, whatever, you liked them. The reality of it was - it was a spammy bot that wasn't useful, funny or neccessary.

[–] AtariDump@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago

I'm talking about the annoying ones…

Yes, the stupid reminder bot where all you had was RemindMe! In the comments multiple times adding nothing to the conversation.

It’s as annoying as “bump” in forums back in the day.

I actually liked it

[–] morrowind@lemmy.ml 55 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I don't see why it would be fake, there's nothing unbelievable about it. I mean it is a greentext but there's no reason to, y'know

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 54 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Anon has a wife

Red flag right there

[–] Rinox@feddit.it 5 points 4 months ago

Also a gf. And a friend. Triple flag

[–] frezik@midwest.social 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

There's also a point where you don't have to care. It's a good story and you can enjoy it on that basis.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Even if it didn't really happen to whoever wrote it, you know it's really happened to someone at some point.

whats a clap and how do i get one?

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 15 points 4 months ago

Sink a putt at a golf competition.

Those golf groupies will give you the clap.

Go to a really shady strip club, you might find some clap there. More likely if you pay with meth.

Nah there's a grain of truth to this. If you don't have lesbians in your social circle, you're fucking stupid and missing out big

[–] Technus@lemmy.zip 30 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Now taking applications for lesbian friends.

[–] dogsnest@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

I know one.

She's Canadian, and is homeschooled.

She travels a lot, and doesn't have a cell phone.
