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.

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.
