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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Cool let me just bike 30 miles to my job and back everyday sounds good
You'd be surprised how much easier that is with a battery and electric motor.
Who the fuck takes a job that far from home?
Maybe you do what you can to survive, fuckwit. Have you thought of that?
If your skills are so specialized that the only company that hires someone like you is that far away, you can probably afford to relocate.
Also make sure you get groceries as well, I'm sure a weeks worth you'll be good to carry back.
Why would you need to buy a weeks worth of groceries? Just buy for 1 or 2 days. Make additional grocery trips as needed.
Yes because everyone loves to go grocery shopping every other day, and with a bike, who cares if you gotta do another 5 miles out of the way.
Where do you live that you are 5 miles from a grocery store? If I ride my bike 5 miles in any direction I will pass half a dozen grocery stores.
I had a quick look at Google Maps and there are at least 50 supermarkets within a 5 mile radius of my home. That radius covers the whole of the city I live in, which has 38 supermarkets, plus a sizable portion of the neighboring city, which has 24, plus a few smaller villages which all have at least one.
I went grocery shopping twice today. Once this morning to pick up some breakfast stuff and another visit in the evening to get some things for dinner. It’s a 3 minute bike ride. A grocery trip takes less than 15 minutes including the time spent in the store. I don’t think it’s possible to live farther than that from a supermarket in this city, I lived 1 minute farther away I would be closer to another supermarket.
