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.

Millenials are just passing on the abuse they got from the boomers for enjoying avocado toast 10 years ago.
At least making fun of someone’s tech skills is rather harmless compared to questioning the basic desire to eat something other than ramen every now and then.
Yeah IDK, I think the biggest “fuck you” we can give to the boomers is to not be shitty to the younger generations as they were.
Like, look here you cunts, peace WAS an option all this time. You just didn’t want it badly enough.
I thought we were already doing that by not buying diamonds and houses.
We can do it if we stop buying avocado on toast and starbucks though.
We could do it even better!
I have seen multiple "zoomers" struggle with zip files. Probably because they dont know those from their smartphones.
Interestingly enough, the youngest zoomer is now 11. I've never seen an 11 year old struggle with a zip
I've seen plenty of 11 year olds struggling with closing their pants.
And now you're on a list
How is it possible to struggle with them, pretty much all desktop OSes have built-in support for those and Windows even lets you treat them like folders.
I think it's because Windows treats them like folders. They don't understand why things don't work like normal but windows explorer displays them like normal folders.
They have no concept of what a compressed archive is.
Ah right, that's certainly possible.
But then opening an image inside a zip hasn't ever not for a very long time now.
