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.

One of the most common things in threads about missed signals is people with social skills assuming that everybody is equally capable in social situations

Or that their own experiences socially, translate to others.

Looks DO matter, more so than most will admit. It's like being rich, they'll tell you they got rich by being smart or hard working, but will be willfully ignorant of the inheritance or luck they got.
