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.

For anyone reading this who might have anxiety, I had this problem and it just turned out that I really need better support during the day. Boxers weren’t cutting it.

With that said, yes definitely consider seeing a doctor.

Alternatively, as a form of scrotal elephantiasis, it could be a parasitic infection, swollen lymph nodes from either disease or medical procedures like radiotherapy, or more rarely a hernia that causes the intestines to drop into the scrotum.

intestines to drop into the scrotum

I was perfectly fine without the knowledge that that can happen.

Getting a hernia there happens to 1 in 3 men.

It's just how a quote reply works on 4chan but the meaning has expanded.

Edit: as in, instead of quoting the actual comment I reply to, I summarize it as "implying ____"

I think it's better to check with a vet. He solved my dogs problem with dangling balls.
