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.

Having recently moved to Europe, I occasionally miss the convenience of driving but overall it's so much better.

Just getting to chill on my commute and not have to worry about traffic is so nice.

When it's very cold or rainy it would be nice to drive to the store. I do miss being able to buy a week+ worth of groceries and loading up the trunk

Overall this is still way better.

Of course, if you live in a dense city with barely any parking spots and roads that are impossible to drive through on work days, practicality may be limited.
