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 think the two-dollar term in children's programming is "non-repeatable violence." Works on kinda the same level as actionable threats. If an idiot child could do what a character did... you're not supposed to show that. Their little brother won't fare as well as the cartoon fox that just took a baseball bat to the dome.

On the other hand, little Timmy, age 9, presumably does not have access to a bandsaw.
