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.

At one of my old jobs (which handled owning malls (I worked on the websites)), one of the locations would hold an event with Autism Speaks; during a meeting, someone mentioned that we needed to get the campaign advertisements on the site for one of their upcoming events.

At the mention of "Autism Speaks", I reflexively went, "Ew." Only dawned on me, after the fact, that it probably looked to the rest of my coworkers like I was ridiculously immature about and ablist towards autistic people.
