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.

Those are so cool. They're the only way (I know of) that you can see molecules with your naked eye. Actual molecules! That's practically at the level of atoms, and you can see that microscopic stuff!

**Edit: they are not, in fact, molecules. See replies for more info. **

Also red blood cells. It's pretty cool that if you stare at the sky (not the sun; please not the sun) you can sometimes see red blood cells move in the back of your eye. Single cells! Amazing.

Looks like you're closer to the truth than I am.
