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.

My grandpa has dementia, so now when I call him, the conversation starts slow as he tries to remember where I'm at in life. Most of the time during that, he randomly launches into a discussion about some subject that he tells me all about. The last time we talked, I got a rundown of red wing hockey from 75-79, including community events. I've never seen this man watch hockey, only basketball and football.

Cherish that shit, try to remember something of those stories in case you ever want to pass those on.

For sure, I'm hearing brand new stories from him now, especially about his life before I was around.
