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.

It was when I was younger. At 16, I was able to walk into a local gun shop and buy two boxes of 9mm ammo. Shop owner didn't seem to care at all, so my friend (17) went back in weeks later to buy a .22 pistol.

No ID. No anything.

Thankfully, things have changed since then.

You should have got a gun the same caliber as the ammunition.

😂 we were so young and dumb, we didn't think that far ahead.

My friend just wanted something small (bad, BAD city), and what I bought wasn't even for me. I got sent in by older guys who apparently weren't allowed to buy ammo.

In retrospect, I think I was lied to 🤔

I hope you then sent the older guys in to the liquor store to buy you booze, as is tradition.

You think the owner knew?

Definitely not, no 3rd pinhole and it's got the CA neutered grip, just a regular old AR-15kun.
