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.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Ah yes, taking advantage of vulnerable people for lolz, one of my favourite past times!
I know this is 4chan and therefore, fake, but this isn't even funny.
The worst kind of psycological game I have heard about is a group of people selecting a target "friend" and randomly saying "please wake up", "we miss you", etc. Then denying having said that.
That can really mess you up...
Why are people like this?
Why? I don't know
How? Some people have so little empathy that they don't care how much pain you're in or how shit you feel as long as it's entertaining to them.
fucking hell, you don't even need a disorder for that to leave you feeling freaked out
and it could lead straight to a panic attack if you're high or a child who read a few too many scary stories on the Internet
I read it as a person and 3-4 of their friends follow a random stranger who’s going about their day and randomly say things like that as they’re passing by.
That is how it was explained in the post I read, horribly insidious
It's funny in that Anon thinks it makes them look cool instead of pathetic, and how in reality they'd flinch if somebody even slightly scruffy looked in their general direction
My first read was “peep my unstable ravings and respond in kind.” Mind that I don’t find this funny, given how frequently real aggression takes place against the disadvantaged, but they’re pretty obviously trying to make themselves look despicable and cringe in this story.
It does make him look cool to other 4channers, and those are the only opinions he cares about.
