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.

A friend of mine tried to convince me to get Factorio a couple days ago. Couldn't help but feel like he was a junky trying to get me to try just a little bit of heroin.

It's more like crack or meth. You start a gamenin the early evening and suddenly it dawn's outside. I hate myself for loving a game which basically simulates the job of "process optimization"

I always describe it as a puzzle game where all the puzzles are designed by an idiot and that idiot is you.

As a chef, the spaghetti can fuck off. I want to build lasagna.

Hey if your actual job is process optimization, you get to enjoy it twice as much 🥲

I’ve never played factorio, but I am an industrial engineer and my builds in the minecraft mod create make my wife sad

Do not even come close to Factorio or it will be your Ex Wife. Trust me Bro!

Satisfactory, however, will be 100% totally safe and good for that marriage. Trust me bro!

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Dyson Sphere Project is exactly what that marriage needs! There's a multiplayer mod so the wife can show him good optimization.

Whatever you do, don't install clockwork and valkerien skies. You maybe become but a memory to your wife

I started playing Satisfactory with a friend a couple weeks ago.

I realized yesterday that it's basically my job if it was fun.
