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.

If you go to a foreign country and think every local restaurant is overpriced then the problem may actually be you.

Wanting affordable meals

  • At the waitstaffs' expense

That's why you think other countries are overpriced, they're paying their staff

A decent wage, what a concept! Ring ring USA ($7.25 an hour, I ask you…).

Would be interesting to see grocery store/wholesale pricing too as that should be a factor too.

Would you believe groceries are hugely more expensive in the US?

Do you tip the self service checkouts or something? 😂
