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.

Also, always assume your intentions are transparent as glass even before you open your mouth. People can see and tell why you're talking to them. I hate that this is something's I learnt through trial and error.

Complete disagree. I've been accused of intentions I didn't have and ascribed intentions to others that didn't have them. Even in face-to-face communications, we are really just guessing at intent and it is often quite opaque.

In case of OOP, any attempt to hide only makes it weirder.

I agree with you though. But for people like oop it's better they keep this assumption
