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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Great! It means you have more time to enjoy the beauty of nature!
Wait, it's Australia.
I know it's a running joke that Australian wildlife is so deadly, but genuinely, in my day-to-day, I almost never think about it.
Except for a couple of months in Spring. When riding my bike becomes a game of Russian roulette with whether or not I'm going to be swooped by magpies.
We have Australian magpies here in NZ too, and I was always told to be cautious around them but I've literally never seen them swoop at anyone.
Is there something about the Aussie environment that makes them aggro?
Fun thing about them is there's always two of the bastards. So when my kids and I see one we always make it a game to find the second one. It's often quite a challenge
