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.

That sounds like something a velociraptor would say. Sus.

As an aside, my Gboard absolutely 100% did not want me to type "velociraptor." Is Google promoting revisionist prehistory?

Thank you for noticing, velociraptors were my favourite dinosaurs from kid's encyclopedia and I couldn't remember how they're called.

Happy to be of service!

A velociraptor would never eat or promote eating chicken, that would be like promoting, idk, eating your own cousin (the one you don't see since that last Thanksgiving, some years ago, when your uncle (their father) started talking about how dinosaurs don't exist because earth is 2000 years old, got kicked from your house and decided to cut ties).

Edit: don't use gboard, use thumb-key. Best keyboard ever (once you learn it) and easy to use single handed ~~with even less than 5 fingers~~

Please disregard that last part of the sentence, I'm not suggesting anything like having less than the usual 5 fingers a human hand has.

I know (or at least have heard from Jurassic Park) that velociraptors were smart, but I'm not sure they'd understand evolutionary theory. Though perhaps this post disproves my theory ...

I'll look into your recommended keyboard, having the standard number of human fingers, thank you.
