For anyone reading this who might have anxiety, I had this problem and it just turned out that I really need better support during the day. Boxers weren’t cutting it.

With that said, yes definitely consider seeing a doctor.

Is this your professional opinion, Dr. Wesker?

Alternatively, as a form of scrotal elephantiasis, it could be a parasitic infection, swollen lymph nodes from either disease or medical procedures like radiotherapy, or more rarely a hernia that causes the intestines to drop into the scrotum.

intestines to drop into the scrotum

I was perfectly fine without the knowledge that that can happen.

Can you tie em in a knot, can you tie em in a bow?

Do you get a funny feeling, when you hang em from the ceiling?

Oh you'll never be a sailor if your balls hang low.

What are "implication arrows"?

[-] clara@feddit.uk 38 points 2 days ago

> implying you don't know what an implication arrow is

it's one of these: >

What do they imply?

I know that these stories are often accused of being fake, but I guess I don't understand the context of the response. It seems like the responder is saying "go to the doctor regardless of whether you actually have a problem requiring a doctor." Which I guess could be good advice in some circumstances, but ... Maybe I'm just taking things too literally.

Thanks for the answer!

[-] DogWater@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I think it's that people understand that 99% of green text stories are not real, so the reply is just saying yo if this is real, go to a doc.

Maybe I'm wrong tho

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The anon got it wrong. These are ">" or "greater than" symbols, not arrows, although they look like arrowheads. They are used to signal a quote, which makes the text green on 4chan or inside a quote block on other platforms. In 4chan culture, the resulting greentext is not a quote, it has a meaning of its own.

The actual implication arrow, used in mathematical logic for statements like "if A, then B" or "A implies B", is "⇒" or "rightwards double arrow" in Unicode. Using ASCII characters, it can be written as "=>".

It's just how a quote reply works on 4chan but the meaning has expanded.

Edit: as in, instead of quoting the actual comment I reply to, I summarize it as "implying ____"

I think it's better to check with a vet. He solved my dogs problem with dangling balls.

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.
