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.

Because the taste buds are in the front of your tongue, not the back of your throat.

I assume you're joking, but for those who got taught that in school but haven't thought about it since, that thing is basically bs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tongue_map

It's a deep throating joke.

I know that part is, but specifically the front of your tongue tasting sweet is the weird tongue map thing that somehow made it into the education system

The back lf your throat doesn't have taste buds tho.

I also have a needless follow up statement to OP's tongue map

I thought the taste bud distribution thing ended up being kinda bad science.

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 17 points 2 weeks ago

It did. Probably just making a deepthroating joke.

Mine tastes like pineapple and I'm willing to provide proof.

Did you know that semen is mostly sugar?

Then why does it taste so acidic?

What? It's salty, not acidic.

Oh, is it? How do you know?

Real men taste their own semen and know that it is salty!

What flag is that by the poster‘s name? A colorshifted trans pride flag?
