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.

"Ask his mom if I can babysit him" is this not weird....?

Details don't really matter for made up stories.

You like telling kids Santa doesn't exist, don't you?

That's the best part of being a mall Santa.

Believe it or not, some uncles actually enjoy spending time with their nieces and nephews, and parents like to have a break from raising their children. It's amazing what can happen when your family is barely functional

My nieces and nephews are some of my favorite people ever.

It's not that weird. I offer to babysit somewhat regularly. I miss my nephews, and my sister / brother-in-law get a date night. Win win
