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.

Canada. No idea of the scores thing, despite being inundated by adverts about it most of my life.
However, I can't fathom people who've never had a credit card -- are you living the life of a monk, still in high school; what?
It perplexes me because I've had a credit card since entering the workforce and, while I've used it sparingly, it's really saved my ass a few times. "Neither a borrower nor a lender be" is just adding challenges to your life you don't need at a time when you need them least.
Never had the need for a credit card living in Sweden. I got a debit card and that's it
Many countries just don't do credit cards, people there pretty much only get them to access foreign goods and services.
Credit cards rarely work in a store here so hardly anyone uses it. I only have one in case something only works with a credit card.
