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.

My 3 cats and all the stray kittens I catch and foster have really helped my wife with her issues.

I hope she prepares herself for it to die someday. I'd recommend getting a kitten as soon as it starts to show signs of aging or deteriorating health.

Cat. Pet the cat.

Can relate. I became insomniac a few years ago. Couldn't sleep until 4 or 5 in the morning sometimes, trying to stay afloat in my life on three or four hours of bad sleep a day. After watching a stray cat for several days or weeks, we finally adopted it. He kept yelling at me to feed him every morning, the little bastard. It helped me start the day because I couldn't let him go hungry because he was always looking out for me. I love the way cats make themselves at home. They may look like lazy little moochers, but they are disciplined and take care of themselves all the time, their lives have structure. You can learn a lot from the way they spend their time.

I didn't know anything about Aesop Rock beforehand and for a long time thought he was talking about Kirby from the games.

Did explain the question about why they are the leaf.

i can't give my pet a hug, they would get squished and probably not like it

Are you the proud owner of a jumping spider?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

One does not "own" jumping spiders. One only gets graced by their presence (and tricks, they are smart little f'ers).
