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.

>now i run the shower and rub my arms/neck with hand soap
>also run my hair under the shower so it's dripping wet and not just moist
>she asks why i haven't asked her to buy shampoo yet

God I was a pig headed, grubby little preteen I relate to this in spirit so hard.

Pushing boundaries by never doing exactly what you're told: always put your own idiotic spin on it, or else the adults win!

I mean I hated being told to do things so this would 100% be something I would at least consider doing

How do you rinse off in the sink?
