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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

"Night owl" sleep preference is a real thing and isn't a choice (being largely genetic). Night owls forced to obey a daytime schedule suffer from what researchers call "social jet lag" because it constantly feels like they're living in the wrong time zone. Here's a 3-minute AsapSCIENCE video with more details for anyone interested.
Im not going to disagree with you, but i have this nagging suspicion that most people who think they are "night owls" are really just shining a phone light in their face every night and confusing their sleep cycle.
Night owls have been a thing since long before cell phones existed
The increase in people who can't sleep because of cell phone usage at night has increased because of cell phones. This is a well known thing. No one is saying night owls didn't exist before cellphones.
Or night owls just fuck a lot more than early birds, so we're taking over the population
Conspiracy! You all will turn into vampires later....I saw it in that true blood documentary.
