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'm pretty sure flashbangs are less about the flash, and more about the bang.

the post seems to be talking about a precise grenade throw in a game. the only game i know that has such a thing is counter strike, so assuming that's what it is.

in CS, the player (for some reason) only gets deafened if they're looking at the grenade, meaning they also get blinded. plus, the blinding effect is way more important than the deafening effect, since a person would still be able to shoot someone else if they're just deafened.
