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 AP history teacher liked to make up stuff. But like, he'd say he made it up right after telling the made-up thing.

TIL I’m your AP history teacher (just kidding, but I do enjoy recreationally lying to children)

Was your brother my 6th grade history+english teacher who spent more of class time having recess or playing Risk (the board game) than anything else?

Unfortunately, I’m an only child. But I could ask my sisters whether they have any siblings who fit that description.

Or you could just lie and say that yes, that was indeed your brother.

I mean that's a great illustration of the importance of those primary sources in a memorable way, especially if you're out of school now and it's stuck with you that long.
