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.

No such thing as instant. There is always some latency.

Ok fine, at the speed of light then.

Not quite... There is some attenuation due to the medium, in this case, signals sent by wire. Even optic fiber has some attenuation.

Obvious troll, but I'll explain it to the rest of you guys: the latency in CRTs is so miniscule compared to LCDs that it might as well be called instant.

Not trolling, just nitpicking.
