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.

X is the new Y as long as X is in the same age group as the person peddling the false narrative. Truth is; you should have done it yesterday. It sucks that you squandered your time, but if you feel the same way tomorrow, you only have yourself to blame.
And this is why I left IT and became a mailman at 41. A life of dead-end support jobs wasn't going to get me a six figure salary, let alone a pension. Now I have a genuine chance at a six figure salary and have enough time to build a somewhat decent enough pension if I play my cards right.
It's never too late to turn things around, but the sooner you do it the better off you'll be.
I'm in something IT adjacent right now, loving it, and making the higher end of five fig (40/hr) so I'm doing okay for myself
