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.

Lots of scary side effects to many medications people take as well. It all depends on the probabilities.

And benefits. Some cancer treatments include common symptoms like hair loss. What would you choose?

Glasses are barely an inconvenience; you can't compare them to cancer. A 1% drop rate on making my life significantly worse is terrible odds, especially given the monetary cost.

Can’t compare it with cancer, but calling it barely an inconvenience is also a bit rich in my experience.

Also the 1% chance is pulled out of someone’s arse isn’t it? Did anyone here look up actual numbers for long term detrimental effects?
