I've always been skeptical of greentext (and most internet) stories, it's just more fun to suspend one's disbelief.

I'm just still confused about the concept of "implication arrows," heh.

it's referencing a quite old meme of ">implying implications", being that the storytelling style of greentext is wildly unconventional in that it is structured around quoting / citing some external imagery or context, and thereby inviting the reader to infer what the poster is thinking instead of directly stating it

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.
