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.

I’ve never liked these sorts of jokes, they tend to come from a place of insecurity and proliferate quickly in places where insecurity is common. Then you end up with people unaware of the fact that it’s a purely facetious joke and unconscious biases start to form then blah blah blah. In brief, it’s rarely a good enough joke to make and tends to shift culture in a negative way.
