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.

Gay: didn't wish for a blowjob, fake: she probably thinks of him too.

Your empathy called, it wants you back.

My ex from 16 years ago (16 year olds) wished me happy birthday the other week. Was weird we're both married with kids and never speak at all

Yeah just way outta the blue, now the real question is so I have to remember hers now? Cause I don't think i do haha

[–] obelisk_complex@piefed.ca 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

If you want to, ask her and put it in your calendar! It's always nice to know someone remembers you fondly enough to send well wishes 😊

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 6 points 4 months ago

Yeah, this is great advice. It's unfortunate when pressure to do social niceties holds you back from enjoying meaningful connection with people. Some people are better at remembering dates than others, and caring enough to ask (and put it in one's calendar) is at least as powerful a gesture as actually remembering it.

OP could take a jokey tone to things, such as by expressing surprise that she was able to remember, and then asking what her birthday is

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago

You weren't supposed to because it's a joke.

[–] luxadazy@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 months ago

my ex from 10 years ago messaged me on insta to tell me he had gotten a bengal cat (apparently we had talked abt them in the past). i told him congrats & deleted my insta.

I gotta admit, I like wholesome greentexts

[–] cabillaud@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Wholesome? Or mushy?

[–] Dialectical_Specialist@quokk.au 45 points 4 months ago

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 41 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Fake: anon had a girlfriend

Gay: anon had dated someone who had sex with a man

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I seriously don't get what's fun about this nihilism and gay-shaming.

[–] damnedfurry@lemmy.world 42 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's just a running joke for greentexts to call them "fake and gay", which became having to come up with some justification to attach both labels to the story instead of just saying it is. This is completely regardless of what the greentext actually consists of.

The more you have to stretch to make the labels fit, the funnier it is.

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 26 points 4 months ago (6 children)

Yeah, and I find it funny precisely because of the stretching to make the labels — it makes it feel like it's making fun of people who would unironically call things fake and gay in a manner that was nihilistic and homophobic.

It's similar to how I hate the "git gud" gatekeeping that can be quite prominent amongst fans of games like Dark Souls. However, I take great joy in saying "git gud" in a context where it's patently absurd, like when my housemate arrives home completely drenched from torrential rain. It turns the joke back on the gatekeepy rhetoric

Imagine fumbling so hard that you don't get with a girl who is so into you that she wants you around while she's dying of cancer.
