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.

I never understand why we congratulate people for procreating. There are about 8 billion people and they all have the animal desire to make more people, big whoop mate. Have they made any other notable contributions?
They aren't being congratulated for procreating. They are being congratulated for having the right mentality around procreating (in that it is a sacrifice that requires at the least consideration prior and commitment after in order to make a good human to carry on the species).
Lmao, Sacrifice, sure. More like Responsibility.
...uh, there's no reason why it wouldn't be both. They aren't mutually exclusive (in fact, they're often mutually inclusive).
Sacrifice is when you give something up for the greater good.
Responsibility is when you suffer the consequences of your actions.
Lol according to your very narrow definitions, sure. According the actual definitions, you're being aggressively pedantic
