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.

I'm gonna look like a moron here, but I genuinely have no idea what I'm looking at or how it works haha. Is the bar across the top used as a handlebar..? It doesn't look like the front wheels turn.. ~~Where the hell do you feet go?~~ I think I can see pedals, they're just lined up with the frame so I didn't catch them at first.

These are all over the place in Denmark. Look up Christiania Bikes

Don't even need that. My parents used to have a kid seat on the front and the back of the bike so they could take us both. When you're getting too big to fit on the seat, you learn how to ride a bike yourself.

What in the world, how do you see anything behind that... thing?

You sit the way your head is above, so you see the road.

Seen such things in Amsterdam.

And honestly looks a little awkward, including IRL.

But some still drive those and feel fine

If it works it works, I suppose.
