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.
Alaska isn't as "settled" as lower 48 (continental US), the wilderness is always there for mooks to wander into.
It will kill you, just one moose will ruin your day. And the moose are the least of your worries
you don't know what fear is until you've locked eyes with a bear.
I think there were discussions of him dying from eating raw potatoes or something like that. I just remember hearing that and thinking this guy must be the type of person who thinks chocolate milk comes from brown cows.
I know I'm being rude, but I'm with anon and always felt like I was missing something when people praised this guy. He didn't seem like an enlightened soul to me. He seemed like he was going through a severe mental health crisis. And was intensely ignorant and a bit arrogant that he could go into the wild with zero understanding of it and have a life there.
In Alaska he is always used as a cautionary tale to the point where he borders on being mythic like Icarus.
Actually, now that I think about it, Alaska sizable pantheon of guys like this. Dumb people who think they love the wilderness, but do not have any real respect for it.
