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 work in IT and understand that the tradeoff for good security is a reduction in convenience. But this really reads like deliberate punishment. I get the same sense on Apple's platforms. Wanna change your cloud password? Prove you know the unlock code to a device that you no longer own and haven't had in a year. This is especially awesome when your employer makes you change passcodes on a regular basis and you have no idea what you used back then.
My password manager keeps a history, and it has saved my bacon twice now.
Which one are you using?
