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.

“Move to Italy” seems like a pretty good opening gambit.

[–] musubibreakfast@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Or open a really good Italian restaurant or deli, move to New Jersey, New York or Chicago, join the mafia, become Roman Catholic, make a big deal out of celebrating Columbus Day every year, the options are endless.

I can guarantee OP cannot handle a NJ Italian American Divorcée

Or the crazy ex-husband who hangs around with a bunch of guys who are definitely not in the mob.

If you know what's good for you.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 39 points 3 months ago (1 children)

go to southern Italy and speak Italian, for starters.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 14 points 3 months ago (2 children)

What’s wrong with northern Italy?

Do you know everything you did? Hell, I can't even remember all I did a week ago. Maybe selective memory

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My agenda is fairly exhaustive:

1: eat
2: poop

[–] mcz@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

Important tip: always separate step 1 from step 2

All the women in the North are just men with wigs which is fine, but it does make it difficult to find a MILF.

[–] m4xie@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago

Tbh I'd rather date a fun Italian cross-dresser than a woman who's in a different stage of her life than I am.

[–] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 23 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (5 children)

No then she'll be French.

(Also why Italian? Romans were cool. Renaissance city-states were cool. But modern Italy is mid-tier.)

there are dozzine of us

[–] RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 20 points 3 months ago

Found the Italian 🤌.

Fixed that for you.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My guess would be that anon is from italy but just chose to phrase it in this ambigous way.

[–] Jerkface@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

I mean... it's what we all want, isn't it?

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 5 points 3 months ago

Italians are hot. You've got poor taste.

[–] wieson@feddit.org 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Casual xenophobia from the US American, what was I even hoping for

[–] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 months ago

Welcome to 4chan.

[–] genau@europe.pub -2 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Most Europeans would share the opinion though.

[–] seggturkasz@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

European here, no no no. Italians are awesome. Very friendly and cool people full of smile and elegance. If you want Europeans trash talk Italians you have to ask southern Italian about northern Italians or vica versa. :D

[–] genau@europe.pub 3 points 3 months ago

I'm European.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Italy isn't Europe's joke country though. Italians are just minding their own business out there in the Mediterranean not really bothering anyone else.

Everyone will trash talk France though. And the French will trash talk Parisians.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And we Americans trash talk France. I don't know why though, they've been nothing but helpful, what with the Revolutionary War and the Louisiana purchase.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 3 months ago

They were real dicks in the late 20th century though, including engaging in state-sponsored terrorism. Their inclusion in the European Union was a real sticking point for a while because of that.

[–] lessthanluigi@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 months ago

I thought Europeans mostly bitch about the US tho

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

You're not wrong. All the cool Italians left and are in my friend circle.

You’re saying advertising might work?

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

OP probably never met an Italian MILF, they are scary AF. Attractive, yes, but in a way that will make you fear she'll rip your nuts off in a random spat of anger that you did nothing to provoke.
