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.

That's when the word "about" is useful. My grandpa is "about 60" and my dad is "about 40", he got the PS1 when my dad was a kid. My dad had me when he was "about 20"...

I don't think people tend to make up specific ages that are not accurate when they're trying to obscure someone's exact age.

Counterpoint: "20" is shorter than "about 20" and this is a short comment by a 4chan anon.

Countercounterpoint: this is a short comment by a 4chan anon, so it's probably a lie.

Fakeness in 4chan no way?
