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.

Ah yes the genetic order you get after you're born. Makes sense.

Epigenetics are exactly that, things you are exposed to after birth which impact gene expression.

I’m not aware of any epigenetic disorders, as such, but the field of epigenetics is pretty new, so I wouldn't rule it out entirely.

Can't expect sound reasoning from an incest baby 4chan user.

The sequence of events checks out to me, it’s just that he didn’t know he was an adopted incest baby until right then

look i'll sit on the microwave if i want to

/unjerk epigenetic changes are a thing but i only took senior level genetics. that's beyond me.

I think this is a good idea. It should be a legal obligation of each State to make sure every child born and registered gets a genetic test as soon as possible.

This would ensure everyone is screened and warned of genetic diseases early.

There already is a blood spot test for rare but serious diseases that states do. It depends on the state though for a specific list of what gets tested.
