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.

It's really ironic that a lot of people equate game soundtracks with some sort of "kid music" or something that isn't "real music".

Most of UT2004's OST could be used on a rave and nobody would know any better.

Try being into board games. "Oh like Monopoly" NO NOT LIKE A 100 YEAR OLD GAME INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED NOT TO BE FUN AS A CRITICISM OF CAPITALISM. There have been new board games made in the last century and they're actually fun.

I wish Catan was the go-to boardgame instead of Monopoly.

Ticket to Ride I think is a little better than Catan and just as (or more) newbie friendly.

Personally, I've become a huge fan of Blokus and have been showing it to people every chance I get. Responses have been very positive.

I might get a trigon version so it plays nicely with 3 people.

I hate Catan on the same level as Monopoly.

Though my favourite game is Unfathomable, so what do I know.
