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.

Ideally sure, but I don't think the kinda guy that does that is big on learnin'
On the contrary: guys like that are big on fear. That's at the root of conservatism and toxic masculinity: fear of losing one's life, one's property, one's place in the social hierarchy.
When he saw another gun come out, he felt fear. Nothing teaches you better than that.
I don't think that's true and I don't think I want it to be.
it is just true, fear is one of the primal human responses, it's what kept us from being eaten by fucking lions or some shit.
One of, yes. But in modern society those primarily motivated by fear are not helping.
i suppose so, but psychologically speaking, it's true.
Nah. The ones I know would probably have a beer with you and tell you to drive safe.
