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.

Those cereal box games were so cheaply made they had a tendency of blowing up when spun in a high RPM disk drive. The ones we had weren't mini disks but we had one blow up on us, although we did get some RollerCoaster Tycoon games from them.

I had a disc that made my CD drive sound like a sports car

Years later I realize that it likely wasn't balanced properly. Luckily it never killed my drive or exploded
