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.

What the actual fuck are you talking about? Go educate yourself

Excuse me, if you actually understand the path and believe the point is being "nice", then why the fuck are you talking to me like that? And if you don't understand the path, then again, why the fuck are you talking to me like that?

The eightfold path concerns "right" or "wise" or "virtuous" action... but what do those have to do with being "nice"?? Haven't you heard that light and dark create one another?
