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 have a theory that the Naruto run works as a placebo.

Placebo works like a mental buff, you believe more in yourself and perform better.

There was a video I watched years ago that had people run normal, the Naruto run.

Nonathletes were faster Naruto style, athletes were faster normal style.

They broke it down as if you're not used to "controlling" your body for performance, forcing yourself into a weird form forces you to focus more so you don't fall, so you get a bit more effort without realizing it.
