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.

They can be over 6 hours with ideal conditions, which could be all night during the summer at higher latitudes. (On the summer solstice, my city only gets around 5 hours of night + astronomical twilight).
