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.

I have no issue using an AI bot to help write code, but from personal experience, you have to at least have a basic understanding of how to do what you're trying to do, otherwise you won't be able to fix the code your AI bot gave you. I've tried using a bot to just write entire programs for me, it never works out of me. I always have to go back and update and fix what it gave me so I actually have a working product in the end but I'm also only doing scripting so that might make it easier to get by with a bot.
I think it's my gamer experience talking, but once I realized games were more enjoyable without cheats, it opened my eyes. I think I might be going through the same with my coding adventures. It feels more...rewarding to make the code work after trying and trying until it's all good.
