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.

Depends, what would happen if I stopped time in a moving car? Like if I were to stop time when that one car was swerving in and out of traffic, almost hit someone, then flicked them off?

If I stopped time then would I still be carried by the momentum and splat against the inside of my car leaving everyone frozen forever or undo time stop and some freak accident is talked about on the news?

Or do I get to stop time while they're flipping the bird, pull their car off to the side of the road, take off their tires, fill their gas tank with sugar, then swipe their offending finger in their butt crack and leave it pressed against their upper lip?

If momentum was something to worry about, I feel like you'd have to worry about the movement of celestial bodies/etc too.

thats the best part: you get to decide how the physics of it will work
