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.

One thing LotR does very well: lets men show emotions that aren't anger. Frodo smiles, shouts Gandalf's name excitedly, cracks a joke with him, and gives him a hug. That's how you know they're old friends.

I can only tell if men are friends if they share a bicep-flexed hand clasp.

They need to shoulder bump too, otherwise they could just be former colleagues or perhaps two men who met for the first time yesterday.

Maybe an ass-tap just to be certain. A chest smooch couldn't hurt either.
