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.

My aunt used to get these terrible itches and headaches when she visits us, untill I turn off the wifi.

Some minor experimenting has lead me to a breakthrough though. I found she's not allergic to wifi, but to green indicator LEDs. Ever since I disabled the LED, her problems have been solved!

My husband won't let me tell her though. Something about "live and let live".

Your husband probably knows she is batshit insane and any reasoning skills left the call long ago

Its futile

What? How would that even work? Green LEDs emit the same spectrum that the sun does a million times over. And TVs and LED lighting emit the same thing.

im pretty sure they meant alergic to green leds as in the person placebos themself into itchyness and headaches from thinking the wifi is on, and off leds means they think wifi is off

I think they're implying that the aunt is sick only when she can visually confirm that the moden/router is on.
