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.

"Hey mark, don't get mad but I may have gotten you sectioned. I need someone to send Superhans this weird balloon of powder he wanted. I'd have done it myself, but I thought you'd be due for a holiday eh? You're not mad are you Mark? Oh your mad."
OK boys you've had your fun with the sectioning, there'll be no more sectioning today.
You can visit or at least check up on sectioned ppl.
