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.

It's an ancient meme rooted in green text brevity, intentionally misused to form another ancient meme, leading through yet another to a fourth.

Appending .exe to whatever states that the contextually implied action was performed. For example:

payday

groceries.exe

steak on sale

dinner.exe

It's being used here to obfuscate a folder, as file format was used to obfuscate distribution of the LOIC in the picture of the "It's dangerous to go alone..." meme.

But, the cake is a lie. It was Morgan Freeman, all along.

I'd like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can't be expressed in words, and it makes your heart ache because of it. I tell you, those voices soared higher and farther than anybody in a grey place dares to dream. It was as if some beautiful bird had flapped into our drab little cage and made these walls dissolve away.
