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.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Ruined pointless but enjoyable arguments with mates in the pub. In the old days you could get a good 15 minutes of entertainment out of 'Was it Matt Damon or Mark Wahlberg in that Three Kings movie?'
Now some asshat with a phone will kill that argument in 5 seconds.
There's plenty of pub topics Google can't kill. For example Would you rather have hands made of chocolate cake or an armpit that squirts cream?
That's a complete no-starter though. Cream squirting armpits every day of the week. After all, I'd have usable hands to be able to harvest the free cream, therefore profit. Whereas hands made of chocolate cake wouldn't be very usable and once they'd been eaten (and with my wife and daughter around they soon would be) I'm just left with the stumps. You've not thought this through. So. Armpits that squirt cream. Definitively.
Yeah we need more info? Do the cake hands regenerate because if so you're basically deadpool at that point
You see how we have a discussion the hands grow back the cream is unlimited
The Guinness Book of World Records was created to do just that, settle pub arguments.
Yeah, but up to the point where you could have it on your phone, no-one took a copy of the Guinness book of records to the pub with them.
They ruined clubs, too. The flip phone cameras were shitty enough to make it a non-issue.
