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.

Bro, just get an A-C Adapter. They are like 20cents und always useful, especially if you have old hardware
So now we need to buy dongles for something that should be standard on a computer?
Next thing we'll need a dongle for the power button, because Apple decided that shouting "POWER ON APPLE" is the better way to turn on a laptop.
Stop whining so much, no one's telling you to use a dongle, there's nothing wrong with USB-C slowly replacing USB-A and becoming a new standard.
We'd never be rid of VGA if we were listening to the ever nagging old dorks that can't get themselves an adapter.
Thank you, I was just about to write a lengthy paragraph about serial ports being the only standard ever needed 😅
Psh you youngsters with your fancy serial ports! Tin cans with string were good enough for my grandparents and they're good enough for me!
