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.

Still love how humans can cover the most distance out of all animals, except maybe horses
We can run both horses and dogs to death and keep jogging
Horses are actually remarkably easy to accidentally kill.
Can't those things just trip over and die
To be fair so can we.
Tell Darwin I said hi.
If they break something, yeah.
wait do horses just keep running until total exhaustion?
I think they lie down once exhausted, but will need medical treatment. It's a whole thing in the horse community.
Plus humans are smart enough to steer prey towards natural barriers like cliffs and rivers and basically no prey animals are smart enough to see it coming. When possible this is more efficient than actually running prey down to the point of exhaustion.
