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.

Butter fly deez nuts?

That's not even clever. There's no way anyone even laughed. Which is also why he's so bitter and made up this story too probably

I too only laugh at clever, highly intellectual jokes.

"I'm over it"

"fuck you ... rot in hell"

Sure

Ashley wisely identified a 4chan bro and GTFO'd.

Heh, is that Marian Labuda in the picture from movie 'Vesničko má středisková'?

[–] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 7 points 3 hours ago

That question is so specific it seems rhetorical

She knew he was too good for her

I'm not sure why anon is making a big deal out of that. One time when I was on a second date, the woman told me that I seemed like quite a pessimist. I said "No, if I were a pessimist, I would never stop screaming." She didn't want to see me again but I still chuckle whenever I remember it.

The horrors persist but so do I.

This Anon doesn't seem like someone with a healthy attitude toward relationships...

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 13 points 7 hours ago

4chan anon in shitty attitude to relationships shocker

„Fuck you Ashley!“ and „rot in hell!“ work as opposing wrestling chants

[–] nutsack@lemmy.world 25 points 10 hours ago (3 children)

yea a lot of people have kids and get fat

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Got fat, 2 kids, no husband does sound like a doozy. It's not a direction many would like their life to go I'd imagine and it has to make dating a real bitch.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 51 minutes ago

Good news, it's probably not true, Ashley probably has two kids, is fit, and has a happy marriage.

About 40% of Americans (which I assume OOP is) are obese, so yeah, most people get fat.

[–] M137@lemmy.world -2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Just because OOP is American doesn't mean that "most people" are Americans... The US is about 4% of the global population. "Most people" is always global since you're referring to everyone on the planet, you could say "most people there get fat" though.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I don't think there's a lot of, say, people in India posting this about a woman named Ashley. I think assuming someone called Ashley is American is a pretty safe bet. Not a guarantee, but a safe bet.

And its not like most European countries aren't getting fatter, just not as fast as the US.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 49 minutes ago

Yup, it could be the UK, but statistically, the US would be the better bet, just based on population differences.

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 11 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Wouldn’t most need to be over 50%?

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 22 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (2 children)

"obese" doesn't include the ones who are only overweight. If you add those up, it's over 70%

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 47 minutes ago* (last edited 46 minutes ago)

What's crazy to me is that most people think I'm "skinny," but until a few months ago, I was actually a few pounds overweight, and I could still stand to lose a few pounds because I'm right at the border between normal and overweight for most BMI calculators at 24.5-ish (haven't done an actual medical BMI/body fat calculation though). I'm tall w/ a 34" waist, which is near the lower end of the pants sizes when I go to the store.

So when you go out looking at people, just understand that the "normal" ones may also be overweight.

Pregnancy and childbirth are quite hard on the body, it's one of the reasons it should be her choice whether to endure it. Of course, strict religions often don't allow her to choose anything else. Apparently her husband chose to default on his vows, though.

Raising an infant into a child and then an adolescent and hopefully an adult is also quite hard and ages a person considerably. It puts a strain on finances, especially as a single parent, such that cheap carbs are often chosen over more expensive fresh vegetables.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 7 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe he died. OOP doesn’t seem like the type for nuance

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 44 minutes ago

And probably not truth. I'm guessing Ashley is actually relatively normal shaped, but anon is so bitter that he will focus on flaws. Ashley could also be happily married, but just not showing pictures of her hubby on her socials (I don't post pictures of my SO, and my SO doesn't post pictures of me, out of mutual respect for privacy).
