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.

Yeah. I grew up watching the Flintstones. He was never portrayed as a loser. He was just a regular blue collar guy. Like Dan on Roseanne. Not like Al from married with children. Someone who was broke all the time but still had a 2 story house and dog, wife, two kids, and a shitty car and vacation like every year even though he was a single income shoe salesman at a mall that was bad at his job.
Al wasn't bad at his job at all, he just cared little.
Tell your customers they're giant fatties tends to drive away business....
Who drove a rust-bucket car with an odometer that rolled over to zeroes.
The family was jokingly on the brink of starvation and would fight over a scrap of food.
They celebrated when they paid the water bill and had it turned back on.
It’s well known Al only owns less than 5 pairs of socks and pairs of underwear with most of his clothes falling apart.
Despite owning a house it’s been said over and over that it’s an eyesore in disrepair from the outside.
The family routinely gets involved in scams and schemes to get money.
But most important of all...it's a fictitious, satirical television show
