Dude, the use of "mongoloid" is not cool.

You know what it means, right?

Thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt. Probably should've clicked when my phone graciously tried to save me with autocorrect, but I was typiiiing.

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.
