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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Because it's a social environment. You don't go purely on appearance usually, you see someone interesting, start chatting, maybe you flirt a bit and if the vibes are right you move forward. If anything it's far less appearance focused than the apps where it's a picture and a bio and not interaction.
As for why not coworkers and classmates and such, it's fine if flirtation is happening. But to a certain degree it's shitting where you eat. People have professional and to a lesser degree academic personas that are less who they really are than their social personas.
