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.

Or anywhere with public transit. Basically not most of the US
I didn't realize he'd mentioned public transit anywhere in the post. I believe he said he intends to get anywhere he needs to go using only "determination and what I ate for breakfast"... I'm no mechanic but I don't think a bus can run on that
You should be able to have everything you need within 15 miles. Everything I need is within 10 miles from me except my work.
A lot of cities in the world aren't really designed with the 15 mile thing in mind. Sucks.
True, but doesn't mean we can't redesign them. Mixed use zoning would help immensely.
Absolutely, but it's rather a solution for the future and doesn't help them in their current situation, which is probably what they are talking about.
