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.

I was recently refurbishing a laptop for a friend and I got frustrated that I had to make sure it doesn't connect to internet during the OS setup or I'd have to start the install over again. Online accounts only stop forgetful owners from getting in, does nothing helpful.
