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?

I did, it was a horrible medium littered with security issues and most of them were hot garbage in the first place.

The best fun was being asked to modify the menu on a website only to find the "webmaster" who built the site used Flash for that, and having to figure out how to reverse engineer it.

It was way past time for it to die when it was finally forced off the Internet... One of the few things I thank Apple for doing

Everyone who liked free and open source software and open standards and such things, which Flash was very much the antithesis of.
