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.

ah yes the perfect phrase to make all women colleagues feel welcome and professionally appreciated in the workplace
To be fair, we had zero women colleagues, and he was saying it referring to other men (basically, I need to get work done). Knowing that individual, he would've stopped if we had a female join our org.
normalising words is still problematic - you never know who around will take it as “oh it’s okay to say then”
