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.

While looking up what his middle name was, I learned that the tradition of middle names did not become widespread in the US until the 1830s. Interesting.
What I want to know is what's up with two-name first names like Mary Jo or Betty Lou. Did that happen before or after the invention of middle names?
So nice we named her twice
