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.

Speaking of drinking! Beer has historically been a part of a Mason's wages! Not because everyone used to be an alcoholic, but because drinking straight water could kill you!
