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.

IIRC, it was Neal Stephenson's Anathem that had a similar line of thought. It was something to the effect of your consciousness warping to a parallel reality at the moment of death, provided there was a reality where you were still alive.
