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.

It's an extreme example where the decision is easy: death vs hair loss.
When it comes to more subtle examples: glasses vs < 1% risk of blindness, that's a decision that people will have more different opinions on.
For all numbers I know (I didn’t look anything up, but so did nobody else) I’m at a bigger risk of being run over when I cross the street to the store. And glasses surely are a bigger inconvenience than not having onions when you wanna cook or beers when the footie is on.
To each their own. I know plenty of people who don't even notice they're wearing them. I also know people who are or were very bothered by their glasses
