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.

My friend tried to convince me to get into bitcoin early and I didn't bother, I thought it was just a fad, like my mom "investing" in Beanie Babies.

He spent all his on drugs before the price took off though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The problem with statements like "If you invested in Bitcoin back in 2009 you'd be rich now" is that you'd have to be clairvoyant to actually know that back then. And if you're clairvoyant, the lottery offers a better return on investment than bitcoin.

In fact saying stuff like this is literally like seeing the winning lottery numbers on the telly and thinking, if only I played those numbers two days ago.

I'm not sure which meaning of "drug" makes it worse
