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.

Anon has undiagnosed obsessive-compulsive behavior triggered by family trauma. Family guy sates his longing for a functional family where people talk to each other about what's bothering them, and an albeit formulaic structure, which he is missing in his real life.

That's a very convenient diagnosis, but this is still armchair psychology

[–] PaellaVacuum@reddeet.com 19 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I keep him in a box, if that’s what you’re asking.

[–] Fosheze@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

But is he alive or dead in that box?

[–] moriquende@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

yes, and also he is the armchair

I think anon never heard about the bird

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

The bird is greater than or equal to the word.

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Is the word about a certain avian variety?

[–] abcd 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oh, have you not heard? It was my understanding that everyone had heard…
