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.

The only correct answer, walk in proud with the head up.

Only if you plan to ass-ert dominance

[–] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Only if you want an A

[–] cdf12345@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Exactly, you not have the upper hand. The only thing that could defeat you would be ass pennies.

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 70 points 1 month ago (2 children)

A fart that serious wouldn't seem real, and that goes double if it appears that you unmuted specifically to make the noise. Just tell people it was a soundboard.

[–] Hoomod@lemmy.world 36 points 1 month ago (3 children)

And now you're the person who has a massive fart on a soundboard, and you decided to randomly unmute yourself to show it off?

[–] JoShmoe@ani.social 37 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thats exactly the kind of person we want to be. The soundboard guy, that’s one step away from radio talk show host.

[–] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 month ago

You never know, this could have been a class about finance. Jim Cramer got disgustingly far using a soundboard. Also by grifting investors with his hedge fund, but mostly the soundboard.

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You'd rather be the person who decided to randomly unmute to share your actual factual filthy self? At least a soundboard is just a poorly judged joke (that actually landed, if the teacher laughed). Or you can be a fart pervert.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Everyone can respect an actual monstrous fart.

[–] Dettweiler42@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

I have two on my sound board, but you do you

[–] caboose2006@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

No. You own that shit, pun very much intended

[–] voracitude@lemmy.world 36 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Follow it up with

Thanks, Taco Bell

And lean into Taco Bell being your new nickname. Easy.

[–] marduk@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I see this going one of two ways; free Taco Bell, or getting pelted with sauce packets

[–] voracitude@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

"Free Taco Bell" is the name of the GoFundMe for your legal defense because you got arrested for protesting the war after class

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Or free taco bell while getting pelted with sauce packets. Which might be even better if that's their kink 🤷

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Just pop a "😎" in the chat. No further elaboration required.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 1 points 3 weeks ago

This is the right answer

"HEY GUYS! DID YOU HEAR THAT EPIC FART I MADE? NEARLY SHAT MY PANTS!"

* everyone laughs and forgets about it*

[–] immutable@lemm.ee 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Honestly the teacher laughing was enough, literally no one is going to give a fuck after that.

People need to realize that they are not the main character, if you want something embarrassing you did to go away just don’t bring it up. People aren’t jotting down notes to bring up later, they have full lives of their own, no one in college has time to commit this to memory any more than a funny anecdote and they won’t bother to remember who did it.

[–] PrimeMinisterKeyes@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Counterpoint: I still vividly remember a guy ripping a fart in class more than 20 years ago. Maybe because we've been writing a test and, up until that point, the classroom had been deadly silent before bursting into laughter.
Or maybe because he did it again, a couple of days later.

[–] immutable@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Oh for sure, I remember anecdotes like that too, but unless the person is still a friend I’m not going to remember who exactly did it.

But that could be a me thing, my wife always tells me I’m bad at remembering details

[–] superduperpirate@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

I'd always heard if you're presenting in front of a crowd and rip a fart, say something to the effect of "I was hoping to finish with a bang, not start with one." But I'm not sure how relevant that is for OP's situation.

[–] NoSpiritAnimal@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Like a god damned King, Anon. That's how.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 12 points 1 month ago

Woah! I knew that was gonna be impressive and I was taught to share!

Now you are a part of a joke that will live on in those people's heads for their life.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago

Assert dominance, do it again.

[–] chemicalprophet@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago

You can’t mess with tradition, you gotta enter on the tail of an epic fart!

[–] MashedTech@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"oh sorry, I was trying to mute myself, I didn't notice we were already muted."
