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.

Welp, you've nailed why I find it so ironic/hillarious when I'm told, at length and in excessive/invented detail, that I haven't internalized/accepted my own failures enough.
Mind you, it almost never involves (even meta-physical)injury or inconvenience to anyone else, so there's a lot of lip-flapping from people who can explain everything they have a problem with except for how what's being complained-about is any of their business or problem.
My new life motto, upon hitting roughly 30:
Suffer no fools.
Be humble, but show no mercy to a hypocrite.
I've been abused by enough narcissists that yeah, I've got some rough edges to me, but frankly, I'm fine with that; a whole lot of people just fucking suck, and its a reasonably effective autorepellant for people who are too full of themselves to take a joke or criticism.
Honestly, I'm the opposite. Fools are the only company I'm fit for, but "smart" fools if I can find them, if that makes sense. I try to avoid feeling like the "smart" one, although that avoidance hasn't required any effort for me among my friends for literal decades by this point.
