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.

collecting stuff you just buy is simply conspicuous consumption. The same sort of status seeking behaviour that leads to buying mansions or overpriced cars.

This person enjoys hot sauce, and they enjoy being socially rewarded for buying absurd things, and they enjoy showing off.
