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.

I mean yeah, funny greentext, fake and gay and all, but is that an actual thing that happens across the big pond?

If someone did that in Europe they'd be in serious legal trouble if the threatened party sues.

Just a few southern states, and outliers. But really, not so much now. It happened once when I was a kid and the dad was an asshole, so I married his daughter to spite him. Couple decades later and I regret that marriage and wish I would have went with my first instinct and asked if he wanted me to clean it because it was dirty.

This idiotic bullshit happens all over, it's just more concentrated in the South.

This happened to a friend of mine from the UK in fixing Minnesota. He had NO context for what was happening and almost shit his pants.
