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.

Gonial angle is this:

Canthal tilt is that:

As I was googling I've seen articles mentioning some angles statistically more attractive than others, that's predictable, but then incels take it as another reason why they are genetically predisposed to stay virgins and have no power to change that.

The ifunny watermark really tips this over the edge, comedically.

It could only be beaten by a SomethingAwful watermark (do they have one?) on a picture of non-attractive angles.

Ah, am woman, can confirm I only date mane with a Gonial Angle over 140 degrees, or under 30

how do you bring out the protractor on dates?

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 34 points 1 week ago

Oh, us females inherently judge the angle flawlessly on first sight.

Under 30 degrees? So, like pugs and French bulldogs?

I've no doubt that at least half the articles about those phrases will lead you down a path of right wing fuckbaggery.

Closer to 99%. This is modern phrenology for incels.

Wouldn't say the studies themselves are only worthy for that, but yeah, there's no way a common person would apply them the other way.

As a gigachad I can confirm.

Some people take pleasure in being pitied and victimised.
