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.

Yeah, at least where I lived, everything was in constant supply and nobody had issues with sold out stock/scalpers until the Wii came out.
This is my memory as well.
The only time there were shortages of anything was during black friday (which people went feral for) or maybe for one or two days during the debut of a super famous highly anticipated product (like, the next iPhone, that level of famous).
The only things that were scalped for months on end like they are now were concert tickets.
