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.

Print out out, give it to a friend, don't mention it via electronic means (email, text, Snapchat, YouTube, and so on...)

And if you use BitLocker, don't!
