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:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

But as soon as a computer is involved, some people’s brain shuts off or something.

Well, you see, according to some mythology, the internet is the place of all ideas; thus it is compared to Platon's notion of "heaven".

Now, people have been told for generations that "heaven is a good place", and since the internet approximates heaven, people trust it way too much.
