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.

Not me personally, but strongman competitions are a thing.
Humans and performance enhancing drugs can do some crazy shit. Check out the Physical 100 show on... Netflix? Those fuckers squat 600lb like it was a fanny pack, and they'd still get wrecked.
Ronnie Coleman is the only person on earth that I know of as being able to used to lift 800lbs. I want to bold used to his muscles got strong enough but his tendons, ligaments, and bones weren't. His body is wrecked and can't really move without help.
Point is even if someone could pick up 800lbs of gorilla, they ain't doing much afterwards but getting killed by that gorilla.

The current world record for deadlifts is over 1,100lb and squats are over 1,300lb.
But yeah, they're still going to lose.
Sort of my point. The squat bar, deadlifts, etc. aren't fighting back. I'll check the show out.
