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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm not sure I (or most of my fellow Americans) can truly relate -- I once had a Finnish friend who explained how kind of frequent and understated getting nude was for things like saunas, bathing dogs, and other tasks you just generally don't want getting clothes wet for. Over here there's such a huge culture of shame around our bodies that even being naked inside your own home can be an issue.
It's not a big step from swimming. You just see that everyone has a body. Some are old, some are young shaved, some are not, some are skinny, some buff, some fat, some have scars, some have tattoos. The breasts and genitals are also just different for everyone and just another factor in the mix that is usually hidden. It's just different and you notice everyone has them. There is no judging table.
Eh?
So you don't get soapy dog water on your clothes. Rinse yourself off as well as the dog, and save yourself the need to change clothes, or be really careful while washing to stay dry.
Depends on the dog, of course.
