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.

You wanna know what makes that other guy a Chad? The fact that he doesn't need to focus on who cares about him when he's sick. Pity parties are a huge turn off for the majority of people. I think it's a subconscious reaction that most people have regardless of who the other person is. Unless you are already close to someone, whether family or a close friend, you shouldn't expect them to feel bad for you. I wouldn't expect the clerk at a gas station to feel bad for me if I came in late to pick up some NyQuil. But we'll definitely shoot the shit about how being sick fucking blows.
I would die of embarrassment if someone pitied me while picking up otc medicine. Like there’s the “ope you look rough, good luck” level, but anymore and it’s just uncomfortable. All I want my employer to say when I’m sick is “do you want to work from home”

I think you should get a pass for pity parties with your own family. I get really sick like once every five years. By Zeus, I want to be coddled when I'm really sick!
