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'm calling it now, some dissertation in the future will be written on spiderbro's place in contemporary culture as an expression of acceptance of widespread low home quality.

Of course exacerbated by a generally low competency in home maintenance, and more importantly a huge renting class with feckless do-nothing-right landlords and limited/unclear permissions to take the issue in their own hands.
