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.

Cougars have a freaky roar as well. Some say it's where the banshee wail came from

You might be thinking of foxes, there aren't any cougars in Ireland.

Avalynne O’Brien is pretty close

Hahaha, I did not see that coming, what have I become?

I bet there are. Maybe not the kind you're thinking of.

I’d say cougars inspired the folktale of La Llorona.
