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.

There is an app called “Zombies, run!” that literally uses the same idea, but with zombies instead of lions. It basically makes you listen to a story where you go looking for supplies and every so often, you get chased down by a horde of zombies and it uses your phone’s motion sensor to track whether you’re moving fast enough to escape them.

This sounds fun got to try it :D

Yeah, but it doesn't make you think that you're actually being chased by zombies because you know you're not being. It's just a fun game. It's not going to increase testosterone levels. It's just about being healthy.

OP here is just been thick.

Well neither does imagining being chased by lions then. Unless you have really good imagination, I guess. But I imagine in that case, either would work.
