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.

Don't do it OP, traveling and broadening your mind might make you enjoy life and then you'd not be so nonchalant about deleting yourself. You might end up on prison, where you'll suffer doubly due to your newfound love of life and freedom! Better semi-suffer in an empty existence for the rest of your life like most others.

Or like, just stay on a foreign beach with your embezzled money and a drink in your hand and never come back. Actually seems like the best option overall...

Happened to a buddy of mine, took out a bunch of loans during covid, and stopped paying rent. he didn’t travel but he lived large, pretty much spent it all on prostitutes and what not, then when the money ran out he couldn’t pull the trigger.

With a little help he got instituted for a few days and then got some government funded counselling (not in the states obviously)

He couch surfed for a bit, luckily we have a tight friend group

He landed back on his feet, still on the hook for all of it and the government started garnishing his wages, But he found a good stable girl who takes care of him and he’s happier than I’ve ever seen him, he works, he takes care of himself. I’m proud of him. He’s come a long way.

If we all did this capitalism would collapse.

Sounds like we should all do this.
