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.

IDK how much of that being shown to marine recruits is real, or if so, how much was just because the marine trainers wanted the recruits to have something badass they could aspire to for themselves. But apparently there's a bit of truth to it.

Joe Pesci apparently did the same thing in Goodfellas, with wanting full load blanks in his gun for shootout scenes.
