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.

Not everyone lives in cities in the US

But 80% do, so what's your excuse for refusing to solve the problem for the vast majority? The "and even then they are really spread out" is not it, BTW.

Money for the most part. It's cheaper to own, no HoA or Condo association. Not to mention it's quieter.

  • "'Murica big" has fuck-all to do with anything
  • Owning a single-family house in the suburbs only seems cheaper than owning a condo because single-family houses are massively subsidized. You're a welfare queen and you don't even realize it.
  • Cars are the things that make cities loud in the first place.
