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.

Why do I have to think of Chakotay?

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 year ago (7 children)

For anyone not getting the reference: Chakotay is a native American character on Star Trek:Voyager played by Robert Beltran. The show hired a Native American consultant named James Highwater (real name Jack Marks) who was a complete fraud.

The 90s were simpler times without Google people couldn't check your bullshit.

Now people find all kinds of different bullshit with Google. So we solved the problem of gritters being hired as consultants for TV shows... by electing them to public office instead.
