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.

My company doesn't even allow AI use, and the amount of times I've tried to help a junior diagnose an issue with a simple script they made, only to be told that they don't actually know what their code does to even begin troubleshooting...
"Why do you have this line here? Isn't that redundant?"
"Well it was in the example I found."
"Ok, what does the example do? What is this line for?"
Crickets.
I'm not trying to call them out, I'm just hoping that I won't need to familiarize myself with their whole project and every fucking line in their script to help them, because at that point it'd be easier to just write it myself than try to guide them.
