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.

You're talking about a country where "I want a lawyer, dawg" is not sufficient to be provided a lawyer, because the cops can reasonably think that you want a dog that's a lawyer. The legal system in the US is beyond saving.

Please tell me this isn't true. Lie to me if required. I can't handle any more America. This may be the metaphorical straw

Da fuck?

Maybe you should just always say that you did it. Everything else is not worth the effort. The system is fucked and Americans too

Every part of our collective absurdity permeates all facets of our life. Just look at our ad space and signage. Food requirements or lack thereof. Civil service (one worker, six supervisors). Everything in any system of ours is absurd on levels no one person can truly fathom.

It's our strength and weakness.

"Credo quia absurdum", translated "I believe because it is absurd"

After adopting this belief, a peace will descend upon you
