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.

(is it possible i just dont understand social stuff at all? I still dont get it. Maybe im just this damaged.)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Social stuff is hard for many people. I'd wager most people are not even consciously aware of social status, social transactions, etc. It's not something that is really taught, so it's no surprise when someone is blind to it.

But if you ever feel bad because of what someone said or did, it's possible you're subconsciously reacting to a threat to your status (import and safety within a group).

Why do you say you're damaged?

It makes sense to me as a parenthetical comment
