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.

Go to a Mexican restaurant. Fajitas are $25 or more. It's just vegetables with some meat. I can make that at home for like $3. We don't eat out much.

Idk why Americans love that stuff so much ... I feel everything that has high fructose corn syrup in it istasting the same

It's almost impossible to find anything still made with lard anymore.

I mean that's probably the problem
