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.

Dumpster diving and accepting handouts with grace are both skills anyone can have. They allow many to survive around the world and share such wisdoms.

The problem with dumpster diving is if the person isn't skilled enough at determining what's safe to eat or not. Or if they're inconsiderate and leave a mess after doing it.

Or if there's broken glass or needles

Yes, that too.
