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.

There is the Haruhi Problem, which proved a lower bound on superpermutations of sets n>5

In reference to the Japanese anime series The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, the problem was presented on the imageboard as "The Haruhi Problem": if you wanted to watch the 14 episodes of the first season of the series in every possible order, what would be the shortest string of episodes you would need to watch?

Holy fuck that's amazing.

Wow! I stand corrected.
