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.

This was a unique point in time when people had cell phones but had to carry a phonebook because there was no mobile internet. Some time between 1992 and 2005?

Even in 2005, mobile internet was so shit, it might as well not have existed. 2007-2008 was when 3G was starting to get rolled out I believe, but even that was pretty damn slow and expensive. 3.5G in ~2010+ is when things were usable enough that you could perform a Google search without giving up before the your first result loads.

WAP was a bit of an attempt, but in truth you couldn't do much of anything with it.

Yep, premium flip phones had optional wet ass pussies in the early 00's
