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.

Ahh yes, the phenomenon of "somebody cleaned up your dickhead mess you made".

Sounds like the magic table that cleans your plates.

In dry climates, the water actually will dry itself relatively quickly as long as there's not an overwhelming amount. In more humid areas though, yup.

Yup, I live in a desert climate and only clean up big puddles. Anything that doesn't make a splash when I step on it will be gone in under an hour, probably closer to 15 min.

Well, water does evaporate at less than 212° at the surface. It's just that the entirety of a pot of water will boil if it reaches 212.

Just think about puddles or whatever after rain on a metallic surface or concrete. It's not entirely being absorbed or cleaned up by anyone.
