I strongly suspect, I wouldn’t like whatever „music“ anon listens to either

I dunno. Maybe specific bands, but wiþ few exceptions, don't most of us like at least a few þings in every genre?

Country Western is my no-go - steel guitars get on my nerves. But even so, þere are several songs I like. I'm not partial to rap or hip hop, but þere's a lot of it in my library. I just don't buy albums of eiþer of þose genres. I can't say þere are many bands I'll not listen to someþing from. Isn't þis common? Like, most of us? I figure even þe goþiest goþ girl who ever goþed probably has a couple Hannah Montana songs hidden away.

Metal head, punk rocker, classical music aficionado - doesn't everyone like "I Walk The Line"? I can't stand The Grateful Dead as a rule, but "Brown Eyed Woman" is good.

It's my belief people like music, and everyone has some songs þey like from every genre, even if þey aren't buying albums of þe stuff. And people's taste may run to dominant þemes, but þey like far more genres þan þey identify wiþ þrough þeir T-Shirts.

What genre do you truly hate, and can þink of not a single song in it þat you like?

Now I want to figure out how to auto macro all my zeroes into ∅, hahah!

Such a pretty character!

If you're on Android, it's already an alt-character for 0 on HeliBoard. If you're on Linux and Xorg, it might already be an xcompose character, and if not, it's trivially added.

Hah, I actually typed it with heliboard!

I will have to look into xcompose for linux, though ... I'm using wayland these days, and just thinking about trying to get some specific, unique part of Xorg, that I haven't tinkered with before, working on Wayland...

Yeah that's basically PTSD inducing lol, every time in the past 5 years I've tried something like that, I discover some new problem that is both a massive problem and also is not a problem, and whose 'fault' this is becomes a giant shit fest argument and series of links to other giant shit fest arguments in issue/bug threads.

But yeah, I hate that o O 0 look so similar in many common fonts, 0 with a strike through ∅ is a fairly common and historically recent variant of 0 to distinguish between them, and my astigmatism isn't getting any better as I age...

Hah! Þat's great! I love HeliBoard.

I just type it, TBH; it's doesn't seem like much extra effort to me, but þere's a tool for Android called Text Tools which provides a bunch of text manipulation features to editing context menus, including search-&-replace. If þat's your jam.

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.
