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:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Many major Star Wars main trilogy and prequel plotlines have real-world analogues.

Main trilogy plot line: French Resistance
Prequel plot line: Hitler's rise to power
Palpatine gaining emergency powers from the Senate: Reichstag Fire Decree
Dissolving the Old Republic and forming an empire: First French Empire, Augustus's rise to power as Roman emperor
