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.

Yes, I meant for Christmas. Your kid says "I want cod!", so you buy three copies of the game for other family members as well? Why aren't their parents buying the game for them?

Well, my sister asked what I was getting her little Tommy this year so we can make sure we didn't get the same thing, she got him RDR:UN so I was safe to get him COD too. My brother said he was getting little Susan and Jerry Rock Band 2, so I was free to get them a copy of COD as well and that way all our children can fish together! Turns out they didn't want to fish at all, they wanted to shoot at each other! Kids these days I swear!

You never bought your niece or nephew a gift? Should video games be strictly relegated to parental gifts? What am I allowed to buy for familial children age 1-17 that I didn't have hand in birthing? More importantly, what exactly are you smoking, and can I have some?

What's with the oddly hostile tone? Who hurt you?

I can't make a joke about you being high because you seem to think only parents can get video games for their own kids, not for their niece/nephew?

Am I the high one then?
