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.

That's the thing about addicts. They're still people. Some get into a bad situation and know better than to fuck up the few good opportunities they'll get. Many will fuck themselves over for easy and quick gains. The latter group is why my wife would kill me if I hired an addict prostitute to clean our home.

I had smack and crack habits off and on for almost twenty years. Never stole anything (aside from occasionally shoplifted food). I always worked and paid for my shit. However there are an awful lot of people out there who use their habits to justify shitty behaviour, so yeah, I'd err on the side of caution.
