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:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Being cheap is the entire benefit. Everything else is just a plus. If you lose the cost it’s not worth it at that point.

But somehow 20k plus for a vehicle with the added maintenance, gas, inspection, and registration is. Gotcha.

Never said owning a car was cheap. I said if I have to shell out 5 grand for a bike that I still have to drive without ac/heat in the summer and winter it defeats the purpose.

It’s still a lot cheaper than a car, and quite a bit faster than a regular bike, but it’s expensive enough you care if it’s stolen.

I completely understand that but they are routinely damaged or stolen for shits and giggles. Cars have the benefit that a person with some strong scissors cant come steal your car, unless you’re driving a 1998 Honda accord.
