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.

It's not quite the same though, souls still keeps the items you dropped, its just up to you to retrieve them.

You can't claim you climbed a mountain, if each time you fell you just resumed from where you lost grip. Falling and reclimbing with renewed tenacity means that when you finally conquer the mountain, the view is all the more sweeter for the huge experience you've gained along the way.

Sure you can; it's called redpointing.

Thanks. My preference is intersectional second ed. I don't mind conflict as long as it's not derived from lazy racist tropes.

Well, good thing games are better than real life. Or they would be worthless.

I can think of at least two things wrong with those statements there
