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.

From PIE root "pau-" (few, little), to Latin-transliterated via Greek "paed" (boy, child), and spelled thusly to distinguish from "ped-" (foot), circa 1600AD. Reduced to "pedo" from "paedo" as part of the shift in Americanization of accents and spelling in the late 1700s early 1800s.
