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.

Welp, you've nailed why I find it so ironic/hillarious when I'm told, at length and in excessive/invented detail, that I haven't internalized/accepted my own failures enough.

Mind you, it almost never involves (even meta-physical)injury or inconvenience to anyone else, so there's a lot of lip-flapping from people who can explain everything they have a problem with except for how what's being complained-about is any of their business or problem.

My new life motto, upon hitting roughly 30:

Suffer no fools.

Be humble, but show no mercy to a hypocrite.

I've been abused by enough narcissists that yeah, I've got some rough edges to me, but frankly, I'm fine with that; a whole lot of people just fucking suck, and its a reasonably effective autorepellant for people who are too full of themselves to take a joke or criticism.
