    be me

    average 4chan user

    love reading and sharing greentext stories

    take screenshots of the best ones to save for later

    notice one day that a screenshot seems slightly tilted

    think it’s just my imagination

    days pass, more screenshots seem off

    angles get worse, barely noticeable but there

    try rotating my phone, doesn’t help

    open screenshots on my computer, same issue

    post about it on /x/, get mocked and called a noob

    start getting obsessed, spend hours comparing, measuring angles

    losing sleep, seeing the tilt in my dreams

    one morning, wake up, entire room looks tilted

    try to walk, stumble and fall

    look out the window, world looks upside down

    panic, try to grab onto something stable

    mother staring at me like I’m crazy

    feel like I’m in a nightmare

    lock the door

    look at my screenshots, they’re completely upside down

    see my reflection in the monitor, it’s me but inverted

    can’t take it anymore

    scream, try to shut down the computer

    power button doesn’t work, can’t unplug it

    everything in my apartment starts spinning

    fall to the floor, clutching my head

    world fades to black

    wake up in a padded white room

    see a pen in front of me

    draw greentext arrows on the walls, but they all look tilted
