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.

It's normalized in the US to be fat. All the people around are fat too, so they are rarely shaming. You'll fit right in.
If you're the only fat one in the group (like when you go to most of Asia) they usually make sure you know - repeatedly - that you're the fat one. It's a pretty big incentive to not be that one.
If everyone else is fat too, then why bother (aside from the million health and happiness reasons)
Ah, so fat shaming was the positive force for good all along
ITT we are extremely confidently incorrect
