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.

On average. On average. On average!
One in every 20 rolls is a nat 20, ON AVERAGE. That's how probability works. Are you happy now that I corrected it? Was it worth leaving the most pedantic comment on the entire internet?
The most pedantic comment on average, you mean.
