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.

Either or, depending on the risk tolerance of your lender.

A low limit credit card with 0 interest if you pay off in full before it's due is a great way to build your credit score.

Just buy stuff on it you'd normally buy without credit, then pay it off ASAP. And you'll build a reliable reputation as someone who can handle credit. Just don't spend more than you can pay off by the time it's due.

Yes, but why is this game even required?
