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.

TIL that Icelandic people are never allowed to leave.

No no, they are. But they're not allowed to ever come back.

TIL Icelanders are horses.

It's because if they go slightly South, they melt.

That's it your going to Iceland

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I'd love to! It seems a gorgeous country with lots of great people! I'll just steer clear of a couple of the national "delicacies" on my way to the penis museum 😁

Not everyone can afford to leave their country

I know. I was making a joke.

Poverty isn't anywhere near as bad in Iceland as in the US, though, so I'd guess that the vast majority could afford a trip abroad at least a couple of times during their lifetime 🤷
