This is a super bad idea. Without knowing the type of plastic and its appropriate softening temperature range, you’re likely overheating the material. That results in the release of noxious and sometimes carcinogenic vapors.

Worst part about every greentext community is people taking the posts seriously. No shit melting plastic in your room with no ventilation is a bad idea.

Worst part about internet communities is people still not understanding that no matter how dumb a thing is, there is always at least one without the knowledge who will try it themselves. Not everybody has the needed education, so what harm is there in writing a comment specifically mentioning and explaining the problem.

Even knowing this information I am still considering collecting plastic and making an orb of my own

There's a "duality of man" joke in here somewhere, I just know it...

You do you, but now you know to not do it around other people. If you harm yourself knowingly, that is your choice. Same as with drugs.

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.
