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 understand he was pressured into (or to step up in?) The Hobbit after things were already very much on the wrong track.

And he'd been brewing ideas of how to do lotr long before doing it, and never intended to do The Hobbit.
