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.

If you are an out of breath drunk and a dude who trains jujitsu tells you that you just let it go, I would find someone else to try to scare

Except again, no one trained in a martial art tries to be a hero when a knife is involved. The "Nike" technique is the only solution, you only fight when there is literally no possible way of running. Even then, throwing your wallet at them is prefferable to getting stabbed and dying.

My son has been taking martial arts for a decade now and this is almost always the final lesson of the day.

The easiest fight to win is the one you aren’t in.

The easiest way to win a fight is to avoid it.

The easiest way to avoid a fight is to run from it.

If you can’t run from the fight you get loud and make it uncomfortable for them.

If you can’t win that way kick a joint repeatedly until one of the above steps is able to work.

When in doubt fucking run.
