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.

Honestly, this one could be real. People poisoning themselves with caffeine powder isn’t particularly uncommon. A friend of mine OD’d on caffeine and spent a week in the hospital.

I always assume these texts are fake but I can totally hear

"A man prepared his own energy drink without reading the instructions. This is what happened to his brain."

In Chubby Emu's voice

Edit:

Would you look at that, I just found a similar video but the dosage is higher. So this green text could be real.

Back when I was trying to wean off soda I tried caffeine pills. Avg is 200mg per tic tac sized pill so one could easily od and it's OTC as well
