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.

Just like groceries don't include tax in the advertised price. the system is designed to screw us over.
Nah, that's just in America, because Americans are dumb. Tipping doesn't exist here BTW, because it's idiotic and why would we do that.
(if Americans aren't dumb, why did they vote for Trump twice?)
(I finally found an upside to the Trump presidency!)
Idk where "here" is, but I've seen plenty of foreign countries's restaurants adopting tipping, particularly at higher end establishments, as business owners realize they can just ask for extra and get it.
Almost 70 million people voted against him, myself included. We’re not a monolith. Also, only 11 states tax groceries.
Americans are dumb af. Source: am American
Canadians do tip as well, and you can't blame Trumpets for that 😁
Australians don't tip, and Canadians are just Americans with a French accent.
Left, right and a hook.
To be fair, no products sold (that I'm aware of) include tax on the sticker price, and here in TX groceries (unprepared food) are not subject to state sales tax.
It pits the well being of the customer against the well being of the server. It's a pretty evil system. Pay everyone a living wage. Everybody deserves to live.
