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.

I've been watching streamers who I don't want to fuck and who don't really play that well, either. A lot of the time, I'm kinda too lazy to play games myself, and watching streams is a much more passive activity (if you don't participate in the chat etc.).

Actively playing games requires concentration, thinking, planning, quick reaction etc. and many games include long stretches that test your tolerance for frustration. Meanwhile, game streams can be a completely passive activity that add an illusion of company and let you stuff your face with snacks.

Plus, there are certain games that I suck at that have decent stories. And some games have decent stories but practically no gameplay.

Plus, my gaming PC is on my desk, which is not as comfortable as a couch or bed.
