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.

I’ve broken just about every bone in each arm and leg. I’ve seen my own blood more times than I can remember and my own bones peaking out my skin twice. Cuts, bruises and minor burns are generally ignored. One day my clumsiness will kill me, because I refuse to learn. At least I will go out proud.

But a cold will fuck me up every single time. Sometimes for days. And yes, I will whine all the time nonstop.

I'd rather have a broken bone once if it means I'll never catch cold again.

Broken leg for couple of months is preferable to blocked and runny nose.

Fuck cold.

When you're not trying to move the affected bone, it's easy to forget about a break. With a cold you're reminded with every breath, every swallow, and every time it makes you sneeze or throw a coughing fit.

Yep, not a fan!
