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.

I grew up playing Gran Turismo 3, and that was an absolute blast. I had a Miata in the game that I put a lot of time into, and it taught me about how car tuning worked (to a certain degree, anyway). Fast forward a couple decades (ow, my back) - my wife (then-gf) had gotten me a PS5, and I immediately bought GTA7 at full price... Only to be met with an absolute assload of microtransactions.

It bothered me so much that I ended up going out and buying a PS2 off FB marketplace and digging out GTA3 from my parents' collection of games from my youth (they had sold the PS2 but nothing else from that stuff 🤷‍♂️).
