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.

Come on bruv, taking a shower takes 10 minutes a day.

I thought you meant like fine shaving your facial hair, making sure your hair length, fade, etc is always on point. Wearing suit or expensive clothing. Wearing perfume.

That's grooming.

Taking a shower and brushing your teeth is the most basic thing

I know, right? And even then, I had a friend who would rather get *into a fist fight than have his hair washed because "I takes 30 minutes to fully dry".

I think he has brushed his teeth maybe like 3-4 times tops in his adult life and half of those, I paid him to brush his teeth. Of course he has multiple health issues because of it. It was literally like he would rather die than brush his teeth.

All that, and he still wanted a girlfriend and thought it would magically fix all of his problems.

So there is my rant, and I hope you are having a good day, and I hope you wish for me the same.

Now you see how fucking low the standards are for men. And yet there are still plenty of men that can't seem to get it.

Exactly my dude it's basic, I find it crazy that it's not more common.

And yet, take a look in any Games Workshop and you're quite likely to find people who will happily go weeks without a shower despite sweating like a pig just hauling their immense bulk across the room for another 2 litre bottle of coke or pepsi.

The nearest store to me for example had to put a fucking sign in the window warning that staff will remove any such sources of offensive body odour from the premises and issue bans on repeat offenses.

I mean, what the fuck?!

It's not the ladies' fault they find such utter lack of basic hygiene repulsive, despite what the Taint brothers and their ilk say, but it's the same basic bitch lie every right wing cockbite sells.

"It's not your fault or mine that your life is a bin fire, it's insert target group here's fault. Here, do what I tell you and it'll get better."

All downhill from believing that "pretty little lie". There is currently a rising tide of people caught up in the lie the world over, and they're unwilling to admit they were had. If history is any teacher, it's got to get waaaay worse before the wind shifts.
