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.

You joke, but the crackhead hooker next door to me in Chicago would clean my place, top to bottom, for a 20 spot. Wouldn't dare steal anything because I was good money for a regular rock.

I've known a few like that. Why I joke about it. I knew a guy, if he could have kept his shit together, he coulda had his own damn shop. Dude could fix about anything mechanical, get it done quicker than some of the shops around the place.

Saw plenty of 'em working in construction, too. Keep it together long enough to make some decent cash, disappear for awhile, come back when they needed more. You got used to rotating faces, got to know which ones would try to screw you over. Too many times you'd see one come up alone and find out the buddies they had didn't make it through the last.
