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.

We had internet 30 years ago. Which proves my point really, that 30 year period when the internet introduced was more significant.

AI is at the moment is an aggressive autocomplete. It will be something in the future.

Aids treatment. Yeah that's pretty good. Does it change the life of the average person? No.

Now take something like phones. You could talk to people far away. That was life changing. Past 30 years we just changed from landlines to cell and internet access.

TV? Life changing. Now we have bigger ones.

Cars? Life changing. Now we have bigger ones.

Trains? Life changing.
