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.

Oh my god I got fucked by a python script once because of a single space. It took forever to figure out what went wrong

I refuse to code in Python without a really good IDE and linting like PyCharm. When using PyCharm it's very rare I have issues like this, because it catches them in one way or another, but I notice it catches those kinds of issues a lot when I'm coding soooooooo....

I have also setup the IDE to specifically color code comments like

' # End If and ' # Next

in the same style as their beginning statements as I find it much easier to visually scam through code when they are present.
