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.

Hardship makes you hardy but reducing hardship is progress.
The industrious among us just find other frontiers to push and hardships to subject ourselves to.
Zips aren't "cruft". Many new formats are zips with another name, like all the office OOXML formats (docx,xlsx,...), 3mf and so on.
