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.

Serious question: is it just understood and accepted than almost every one the posts on 4chan are obvious fiction? Is it just an accepted part of the culture there?

lmao that’s exactly what I did to quit nicotine altogether. Vaped off of cigarettes, then started lowering the nicotine until about of month of zero, then just stopped completely about two years ago.

But this was when you could order custom nicotine level juice and get it sent though the mail. I figured out that this was too good to last, so I lowered my concentrations kinda quickly. This was fortunate, because not long after I quit, the last high quantity e-juice company I sourced from closed up shop.

TBDLiquids, B-X Vapor, and Blue Dot Vapors, you were the GOAT.

I still have the last half bottle or so of zero nicotine juice as a reminder. So glad I was able to beat the addiction in time.

Regulations having the exact opposite effect than desired. Classic.

Give her a menthol candy, this will help.

The story is a bit controlling/manipulative in my opinion. Even if the net outcome is good I'd feel like I was overstepping a boundary if I did this to my partner.

It sounds so freaking fake too.

Tbh, I hope it's real and this woman is free from vape addiction. There's a question here about boundaries but what strikes me the most is that I can't take it seriously. The tone is just so characteristic of these 4chan green texts. No details, no heart. Straight to the point. Short enough to get a bunch of upvotes.

He wrote it like it's a simple story that happened within a week. It just feels manufactured

Other than being blatantly fake this is really nice.

It is okay to assume something is real when it doesn't hurt anyone. :)

Cause maybe, juuust maybe, this story will help someone else.

I unironically did this to taper off nicotine and have been smoke/vape/nicotine free for 6 years

I mean on the one hand they've made someone who's pretty likely to be an asshole to addicts and about addiction for the rest of her life, believing she got over it without any of the problems others describe and thinking they're making excuses or being weak/wimps; and also put her self-esteem up on a pedestal that'll fall over if she ever finds out, but hopefully it doesn't come to that...
