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.

A book's cover really only has two functions:
Protect the book
Tell you little bit about the book so you can judge whether or not to read it
Precisely. Some folks role play 'normal' people in public to make it easier. Others rp as 'crazy' people to make you keep your distance.
When a book stops just being a 'book' and instead becomes 'lord of the rings', that's when cover-judging no longer applies.
In that same way, a person becomes a friend/coworker/family. Until that happens, the only thing you have is the cover.
