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.

  1. If you think a horse has the environmental impact of an automobile, I have a bridge to sell you

  2. Horses aren't cows

I, uh, errr, uhhhhh.....

Motions vaguely at the four-legged animals

They're just different, trust me, okay????

Horse is the male, cow is the female. Just like dogs and cats.

White cows make normal milk, brown cows make chocolate milk. That’s just science

And if you're fancy, you'll find red cows that make strawberry milk.

I dunno, I'll have to do my own research on this one, my third cousin's dog walkers nephew's barber said he read a tweet declaring they were actually the same animal, just one ate more as a youth and has an accent due to the weight.

I mean you're not wrong but no matter how small an impact it's still not ZERO emissions, so the guy you're replying to is technically correct.

If you think a horse has the environmental impact of an automobile

At what point reading my comment did you come up with this?

Look at how much calories a horse needs per day, and then look at how much CO2 gets emitted to produce said food. Even the amount of CO2 a horse exhales per day is already significant.
