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.

I believe filling out the divorce paperwork doesn't actually make it happen, it's just an application for divorce.
It has to be filed with the court and a hearing held to make sure it's all good and then the judge does the thing and you're divorced.
Mostly this is a rubber-stamping type situation, and the judge mostly makes sure that asset division is done fairly and any children are cared for.
If no one has objections, the money is simple and everyone agrees, and there's no children the whole thing is relatively simple.
So filling out or destroying the paperwork doesn't actually do anything.
