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.

When kids say "boomer" they mean an adult. Doesn't matter what age you are. If you're an adult you're a boomer. End of story.

When you try to explain to them what a boomer actually is they just laugh at you and call you a boomer again because honestly that shit is a pretty a boomer thing to do.

As a millennial, that irritates me. Every day I find a new reason to be happy(ish..) that I didn't end up with kids.

Lemmy is just Reddit for adults.

There's a subreddit with that name (and a discord server with a similar one) that I bet would disagree with you.

Indeed. That's why I hang out on /r/teenagers, with all the other adults.
