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.

He had one of the few treatable forms of pancreatic cancer and skipped the only known treatment in favour of homeopathic.

If he had "normal" pancreatic cancer I'd maybe give him some slack. It's just not treatable. But what he had was probably survivable had he treated it immediately.

Well if the treatment is specifically miserable, that could be a factor.

The treatment was surgery. Not even weeks/months of chemo.

His treatment of "eat exclusively one type of fruit a week" IIRC almost hospitalized Kushner when he replicated it while doing the biopic.

Well I tried to give the benefit of doubt even after hating Apple in general. I'm out of ideas of ways he wasn't a complete idiot that was doing stupid things for stupid reasons. And I've always been happy he's dead since I heard he was.

I actively celebrate deaths of stops and evil people alike. I've never seen the point of curbing it under terms like "I don't wish him dead, but I won't be sad to see his obituary". No I am actually am happy he's dead and just giddy to see his obit.

Kinda like I'm sure everyone was glad to see Hitler dead. I just get happy about evil AND stupid people's deaths.
