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.

And nobody thought to install some glass breakers on the bottom of their boots?

Edit: Hell, I'd even consider wedging a nice sharp piece of quartz into the tread of a boot.

Bullet proof glass is plexiglass/polycarbonate, so I don't think a glass breaker would help.

Oddly enough having lots of spikes hurts your chances by spreading the force over more area. You’d really just want a single small spike.

It's like an inch thick plastic, so I doubt that would help. I think that's what they make the overlook sky balconys out of, so it's pretty resilient. Maybe you could whittle away at it with metal cleats over time? But I think they would probably kick you out first.

This isn't plexiglass, it seems to just be laminated glass

Hmm, bullet proof glass is plexi/polycarb, so I wonder why they're advertising it as such.

[–] meowMix2525@lemm.ee 1 points 4 days ago

I don't think they were advertising it that way, the label in the picture says security glass. The reddit post is just poorly titled.
