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.

Yes, in real life and on the internet both. Maybe you don't live in a tech-city, but I do and whiny brogrammers who look down on anyone who isn't a programmer are like 1/3 of the crowd in any bar or cafe you go to here.

Though less so since the massive tech layoffs the past year, thank god. I am stoked to no longer listen to idiots be like 'just learn to program bro! just get a 150K a job in intro software like me bro!'

and fwiw it's not like programmers are the only profession that is like this. met tons of therapists, artists, and musicians who have this mindset as well. not so much teachers, nurses, or accountants though!

Yeah, but imnsho arrogant engineers and programmers are a higher ratio in their own field. A very undeserved arrogance, I’ll add.
