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.

Who celebrated? Everyone at the time who wasn't trying to write flash exploits did

Everyone who had a laptop getting more than 20 mins life out of the battery, because flash would turn the CPU and fan up to 100. Of course there where also a lot of ads using flash on each website...
