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 know it's 2014, but getting a used PC is a good way to get a "gaming" pc for $100. Although the quality jumps significantly with $300.

90€ for a thinkcentre with a quad core i5-6400, 290€ for the best gpu you can get (used, check power consumption), steal a mouse & keyboard at work for free, 20€ for a good soup and you're good to go.

20€ for a good soup

That must be some killer soup

They must mean one of those country restaurants that's a converted house where you can buy amazing soup by the gallon.

Wait that's European. I mean... Kilo.. Gallon.. Liter. Fuck.

You're not getting good soup for €20/kilolitre or kilogallon.

I bought mine in a pricey country for around $350 and upgraded the RAM for a $100. Since I play mostly discounted games that are at least 5 years old it's been great. Highly recommend giving the devs some time to finish the game after it's released (looking at you Cyberpunk)
