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.

I think its crazy that there are places where you just randomly, for no reason, get the rent of your current residence increased on you. I feel like that alone should tell you the priorities of your current and past governments.

It's not for "no reason" buddy. How else is my landlord and their family gonna eat if I don't put food on their table?

And they deserve the very best, and they know I definitely can't afford to buy that for them (as much as I would love to), which is why they kindly and cleverly have put together a grassroots community effort and in a way "crowdfunded" their own lavish lifestyle by purchasing literally dozens of properties and jacking up the rent every year by hundreds of dollars a month. It's all a community thing!

They live in a mansion. I've seen their house. They have a fucking pool.
