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.

Dude should not have listened to pickup artists.

[–] blarghly@lemmy.world 21 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Yes.

But also, would the result have been different?

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 18 points 8 hours ago

Impossible to know just from this post. But it certainly lowered his chances exponentially.

Which part of this has anything to do with pickup artists

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 29 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

…the part where he fucking says he started watching pick up artist shit?

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 33 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Oh right so that's what 'pua' means

Pua is also the name of the pig in the Disney movie Moana, and I'm not sure what dating tips one can pick up by watching that, but maybe OP can try that instead.

Fake: anon took care of themselves

Gay: everyone knows that girl stands for Guy In Real Life™️

Gay: anon is on grindr, but didn't reveal it

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 6 points 3 hours ago

Now I wonder how many bi guys who are getting it on on Grindr would still consider themselves incels. I bet the number isn't zero.

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 60 points 10 hours ago

You're only an incel if you've been rejected by every girl on earth. If you haven't asked them all yet, then you're just not sufficiently desperate.

His problem started at the pick up artists videos. Women are just people. Just talk to them like people. So long as you have good hygiene and you can carry a conversation you're 90% above most other men. All of these problems start with these stupid people treating each gender like they're some entirely different species born on a different planet. People are just people.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 15 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

and you can carry a conversation

You realize this is a 4chan poster who says that they never actually tried to "seduce" a girl, right? No way this guy is even halfway decent at carrying a conversation with a stranger, especially if that stranger isn't the same kind of nerd they are, and most of this kind of people stay at home anyway so you can't meet them. Plus y'know, all the bullshit opinions that come for free when you become a 4chan poster.

I spit when I read the last line.

[–] Isolde@lemmy.world 5 points 5 hours ago

I too spit at this line! Tuah tuah

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (2 children)

realize i've never actually tried to seduce a girl

Satire maybe? Women may want to be charmed, but we* don't want to be seduced, so starting right there anon's in for a bad time.

*with an exception for kinksters who are into that

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago

experienced kinksters in the process of being seduced would be on high alert looking for any and all red flags or attempts to push their boundaries. because though seduction is hot - if a stranger does it to impress you, you should be paying close attention to what they do next

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 8 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I wouldn't put too much weight on word choice here. For all we know they aren't even a native English speaker and they're definitely socially inept, the nuance of "seducing" might not be that obvious to them.

That’s a really good point

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.org 7 points 37 minutes ago

well deserved for watching pick up artist shit. Imagine trying to desperately manipulate your date/aquaintances

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 7 points 53 minutes ago

got rejected once, now I'm an incel!

Yeah, with that attitude you sure are. It's called dating, and you just try again until you find that awesome person

[–] Smeagol666@crazypeople.online 6 points 1 hour ago

I think Bill Burr said that if you're not a rapist, then you're an incel. If you ask for sex, and she says no, and you go jerk off instead of taking it by force, you are then, in fact involuntarily celibate.

P.S.:I'm still kinda pissed at him for taking the Saudi gig.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 2 points 13 minutes ago

That’s a good start. Now make sure to stop washing and fart/belch copiously in public to protect yourself from relapsing into the pool of eligible bachelorhood.
