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.

There's also the birthday paradox to consider - each new file increases the number of potential matches for all files that follow, and also is a potential match for all files that precede it. The total number of ways to match is something close to the square of the number of files.

Also smashing the keyboard is very poor randomisation, you naturally place your hands the same and probably even start hitting the keys the same way.

Yup, very much so.
