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.

I just bought this dumb tv. Couldn't be happier.

It's not a good tv, but it's the biggest one I could fit on my desk and it has absolutely no "smart" features.
Just don’t connect smart TVs to the internet. That’s all you have to (not) do
From what I have heard, this is not true for all brands. Some won't work without being connected. Shouldn't be legal, but here we are.
Yes. I’ve heard some brands will search for nearby devices of the same brands that are already connected to the internet so that even if YOU didn’t connect the TV to WiFi, it still calls home/gets ads.
