People treat "lactose intolerance" as some unusual condition, but the less common condition is "lactase persistence," aka the ability to digest lactose. A large majority of people worldwide lose the ability to digest lactose after childhood. Lactase persistence only evolved in certain populations that depended heavily on livestock over agriculture.

Yes, I became lactose intolerant in my late twenties, and this is a fun fact I like to share to those who are interested.

Do you share by drinking a large glass of milk and spending the rest of the night having boom booms all over the floor?

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.
