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.

rifles are old. They had them widely used by like the 16th century with advanced bullet geometry coming in at like the 17th.

Guns were pretty accurate. In like the 17th century the test for British riflemen involved hitting a 3 foot target at 900 yards for highest grade.
