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.

I'm talking about fining the others as well.

It's just like charging someone with being an accomplice to a crime IMO

Not wearing a seatbelt is a traffic violation and not a crime.

Being pedantic doesn't refute my comparison, that's how comparisons work

It's a wrong comparison because you're implying a traffic violation is a criminal offense, but it's not. A traffic violation is a civil infraction. You can't put them under the same umbrella without making it sound dystopian.
