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.

NO, IM FINE. ITS ALLERGIES.
"just a little better" probably an understatement
So it’s fake because 4chan. But also it’s fake because even if you’re late deafened you need to learn how to hear after getting cochlear implants.
Also because it’s rare for adults fluent in sign language with a supportive network to choose CIs unless late deafened
the real question is if it's also gay too.
dont ask me i don't use four chan.
what if they're both fat
This is fake, but not gay.
Happy Cakeday! 🍰🎂
Did Anon specify their gender?
CAN I BE OFFENDED ON ANON'S BEHALF PLEASE
No, I assumed it for a stupid joke.
Turns out anon is a female
Who else was waiting for the plot twist? I thought she dumps him because his voice sounds like a drowning pig in panic or so... :'D
After my girlfriend gained the ability to smell, she dumped me. She hates roses now though
How do you suddenly gain that ability? Are there implants for smell as well? Or did they extract some lego bricks that she stuffed up her nose as a kid?
might've recovered from long COVID
As she apparantly liked roses before and now does no longer, I read it as 'she was born without the ability to smell'.
I misread the first twist as "she's dead" and thought anon's love life just took a turn for the worst.

If someone is deaf from birth and gains hearing from implants later in life, you whisper in their ear and they can't see your lips they won't understand because they have never heard the audio before. Is this correct?
How could you possibly know what a visual representation of a sound sounds like if you've never had the relationship between the two pointed out to you??
Yes, but it’s not just deaf from birth people. Your brain has to wire itself to understanding the signals from the implant
Yeah. Unless she is only partially deaf or had hearing before and lost it, she won’t understand him.
In the beggining he said after a while she noticed or something like that so it means she had partial hearing loss.
I figured that she noticed him visually, a shadow was cast or she saw movement. Anon also said that she heard her mom "for the first time" when she got the implant.
Taking all this into account, while the greentext seems to have avoided the first label of homosexuality, the verity of the story nevertheless has to be put into question.
"a shadow was cast"
Ominous 😄
"I move closer to he"
Anon may be gay too
I like to think based on how this story is worded she always had implants but never knew to turn them up
Deaf! Dumb! Blind?
But she sure plays a mean pinball.
losing the user manual is a bitch
what if we all have implants but never knew how to turn them down?
a screwdriver does the trick, its a one time adjustment though
Just make sure to get a thin one and wiggle it a bit, the screw is tiny and waaaay down there. ^please^ ^don't^ ^do^ ^this^
Maybe it was a bit much to ask that during such an emotional moment? I mean, let the woman decide when she has her wits together..
don't worry, greentexts are fiction
I never expect when greentexts hit right in the feels.
Never knowing what to expect is the fun part of reading greentexts.
