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.

Imma need an example of one of the weirder things that worked well.
I have two:
Take bread, put some banana slices on top, and then spread some Dijon mustard on top. Better than it has any right to be.
If you have some proper aioli and you need to fry something (but without very high heat), spread a layer of aioli on it as your cooking fat. The oil renders out and leaves behind a thin crust of garlicy goodness.
Tried to makes some tuna-noodle casserole. Out of tuna. Substituted canned chicken for tuna. Out of cream of mushroom soup. Substituted cream of broccoli. My family jokingly dubbed the dish "chicken cordon green." I was 10 or 11 when that one worked out.
Learned in my late 20's that the real secret to a kickass marinara sauce is a single anchovy fillet that has been chopped into paste and added to the simmering sauce, with your aromatics.
