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 was attempting to combine my genuine belief that nobody has ever written a java app that is any good along with humor. As an end user java has always been the scourge of human existence. I've never written a line of java code and have no opinion on that.

I'm not sure you'd even notice all apps that are made with Java, particularly Enterprise Web apps. But yeah, if you're going for humour, maybe jokingly shitting on people's opinions isn't the safest bet.

You've really got to lighten up, don't feed the trolls

What came across as tribalistic there? Pointing out that you might not immediately see the tech stack of every Web app you use is hardly saying "Java is better", and suggesting to not shit on others' opinions is kinda the opposite: I'm saying your opinion disliking it is fine, just as mine liking it is.

don't feed the trolls

Fuck me for trying to take people in good faith and have constructive conversations
