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.

Whatever works! I'm ok with this and it made me smile, in a good way. Thanks op.

I was once motivated to work out by Amizon Subscribe and Save.

I had a subscription to protein shake powder, and I only let myself drink it after working out. If I skipped too many days, I’d still have some when the next shipment arrived, and I hate wasting food.

I wish I was a fuck autist. I'm just a regular autist

A fuck savant - that could be a porn movie from the 70s

TBH, that's a genuinely good technique.

It's so surprising that Wii fit un-autism'd OP.

These greentexts are a treasure trove of ideas. And nobody can convince me otherwise.

Maybe some call it unhinged, but some of it just has that kind of refreshing other-ness.

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 20 points 5 months ago (2 children)

That gave me an idea.

  • VR fitness game for fat coomers
  • Basically copies other more successful titles like Beat Saber or Fruit Ninja
  • Trainer of preferred gender and art style (yes, you can weeb it up)
  • Score better than last time to unlock outfits
  • If you fall off, trainer walks away disappointed

It may be stupid, but I'm willing to bet it would work for many people.

Include like boob and dick jiggle physics and you may have winner on your hands.

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Realtime full-body jiggle physics using cloth simulation on a low-poly proxy mesh with adjustable stiffness, combined with local proximity-based displacement on the high-poly model. I've done something similar in Blender and it's pretty damn simple.

Is it possible to learn this power? And where? And how? Shows us the way, Anon-enjoyer.

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Here and in its discord server. Their ~~cum~~ viscous fluid simulation research efforts are especially admirable.

“No longer a … autist”

No longer a fat fuck autist... Just autist now

That means the developers succeeded.

Changing you diet is much more effective than working out. Being fat is a natural response to an unnatural food environment.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 18 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Counterpoint - when I started working out, I started feeling less hunger and ate less automatically. Shit's connected. Just start somewhere, don't think about what's the most efficient and just do it.

[–] Teppichbrand@feddit.de -2 points 5 months ago

Well, the narrative is that fat people are lazy and simply need to exercise more to lose weight. But this is not scientifically true. I'm posting this video again because it summarizes the scientific study situation in just 6 minutes.

[–] Glytch@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

What a weird response to a personal success story. Are just here to get more views for the video you've posted 3 times?

[–] Teppichbrand@feddit.de 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Nah, I just felt like a non-verified personal anecdote that tells you the opposite of scientific facts should be corrected. I found the video while looking for a quick, credible proof and edited it in my first comment because it is exactly what I was looking for.

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You still need to workout if you live a sedentary lifestyle. Research has shown that being sedentary has a worse effect to health compared to smoking. Also, don't forget about the mental health benefits to working out.

[–] Teppichbrand@feddit.de 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You maybe be right, but using a fucking YouTube video? Seriously, that's about as reliable as the "proof" flat earthers use...

[–] Teppichbrand@feddit.de -1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I agree again, it seems shady. But watch it, it's only 6 minutes long and packed with scientific research. :)

[–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I agree, there's two really significant variables to human health:

  • food and drink

  • movement and posture

The rest is less important.

Ring Fit Adventure’s endlessly positive encouragement really helped my partner and myself during COVID.
