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 love that you're "for those unaware" for assembly but not the random dude who made a video game in 1994 over 30 years ago (that I for one have never heard of).
The dude or the game? The game, Transport Tycoon, is phenomenal, and you should try OpenTTD, which is a FOSS recreation of it by fans (not in assembly).
The fact that the OpenTTD devs made it compatible down to the save files and textures is nothing short of incredible. Like how much time and dedication does that take?
If people these days don't know what rollercoaster tycoon is I'm going to start feeling way more old than I already do.
I know what Rollercoaster Tycoon is, I just can't identify random game developers by their vacation photos.
That's not the first game.
Also what the other guy said.
Not one, like 3 or 4 of them in Assembly, the Tycoon games.
Bro is a living legend.
Clearly not super well known.
Right? My first question was "Who the fuck is Chris Sawyer?"
Tom's brother
No lie, I almost typed Tom Sawyer when writing my previous comment.
