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.

As I've gotten older, I've come to realize that convenience and simplicity are sometimes a feature. Just Works™ technology has a lot of value (assuming the thing does in fact just work).
I don't have any Apple products, but there are plenty of other categories in my life where I've paid more for a worse product just because I didn't have to think at all about the one I got.
I feel this way about cars. I still don't even like automatic doors. Electrical systems in any car is a nightmare. Add 10k little doodads and features all drawing electrical power make so complicated a mess you'll never sort it out and if you do you'll probably realize that the automotive engineer set it up that way because there isn't a better solution that's obvious to anyone who knows how electrical systems are designed and work let alone a backyard mechanic.
