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.

Hope they all take it off before doing anything power tool related or near any machinery that could catch it..

As originally conceived, the engineer's iron ring rubs against the drawings and paper upon which the Engineer writes and even in modern times, serves as a reminder when working on a computer.

Think it's intended more for the design engineer than the construction engineer.

But that said you can get some decent silicone rings that won't de-glove you if they get caught these days.
