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.

Okay, this may paint me in a bad light, but I was fucking 40 before I learned peanuts grew underground. I ain't Joe Rogan stupid, but dang.

Nobody around here grew them (that I know of), and I never went anywhere that grew them where I would see them.

I assumed they were like any legume, growing above ground like peas or green beans.

But noooooo, they're ground nuts. Which I thought was a different plant entirely.

Out of all my damn family on both sides, visiting (and working on) various farms, nobody grew the damn things.

So, yeah.
