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.

I don't mean privilege, I mean they are literally lucky.
How so? I mean, they seem to have been successful, in a sense, and nothing bad seems to have happened, but when you say 'nothing happened' I feel like you want to say that literally nothing else of significance happened, neither good nor bad. Seems like a rather boring, depressing life.
Imagine playing blackjack for decades and getting a standoff every single hand. It'd seem boring, but it'd really be extraordinary.
Also luckier than the average.
Yes but you wouldn't happy with that kind of outcome, you'd spend every day hoping for something more interesting to happen, perhaps even hoping for a loss to make things interesting after a certain point.
