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.

When do kids in the US go to university, because I would have thought that would be the main time for it. Away from your parents for the first time, eventually having your own accommodation for the first time.

Although maybe the fact in the US drinking isn't allowed until 21 would have some effect, because I'm pretty sure that alcohol was initially what made me so attractive.

In the US you usually graduate high schoolduring spring at 18, and most people that go on to college will take a break over the summer before starting in autumn
