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.

Where did painter come from? That's the second time I've seen that used in this context.

Its what people who think they're clever use as a word for people who are autistic. The "joke" is that autistic sounds like artistic, thus calling them painters like a coward.

Man that is some reaching.

Painters breath fumes all day, not that they are all that dangerous or anything, but leads to stereotypes. It’s also an inside joke among constructions workers, there is a “hierarchy” of trades and the painters are near the bottom, therefor the butt of most jokes.
