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.

Like the other commentator said, if you’re on the other side of the world, old, infirm etc it gets you to the funeral. A lot of people, religious and otherwise, take a degree of comfort seeing the final journey be made by their friend, loved one or family, that all humans eventually take.
I understand that, but the post above highlights that there needs to be discretion to such an invite.
Placing it in a public space increases the risks of bad actors coming into stream and ruining the event for everyone. People have done such things for less.
I would've forwarded the obituary through a private family group or messenger as opposes to a socmed.
I’ve watched a couple - never occurred to me that our mike could’ve been hot.
