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.

If you are somewhat tight for cash or shopping for another person some conflict stemming from this is completely reasonable.

Then again I find it weird to give someone money and then say "Buy some plates" without any further details or supervision. Of course anon could have, yknow, asked if the plates are okay before ordering

A greentext story is like a dream. You're following the narrative, while simultaneously thinking that this makes no sense and how did things get here.

You reflect on the weird nature of your dreams as you have them? I just go with the flow, accepting things as real, even though in reality they make no sense. Which then raises the question: how do I know I am not dreaming? Sure, things appear to make sense here, as opposed to dream nonsense. But if dreams don't seem weird in context, how do I know there isn't a level above, where what we take as logical makes no sense?

Drag can tell drag isn't dreaming because drag knows drag's dreams don't make sense when drag has them.

What if you only feel that way because you're experiencing it? Like, maybe you'll wake up at some point, and just be like "wtf. You walk into a tiny room. The door closes by itself, sideways, sci-fi style. When it opens again, the exterior, the room you just came from, just… changed. Completely different"

"buy fancy dinner plates" is enough details

I mean, depending on context, these qualify.

Hmm, is the correct context a bee furry convention?

anon succeeded and girlfriend was mad that she didn't think of getting the bee plates
