At least three Crunchwrap Supremes (because they give me horrible diarrhea) and four NOS energy drinks because I would want to make a huge mess.

Actually yes. This is what I'm currently working on. I have an android phone and I really want to install user scripts on it. The main obstacle is figuring out how to integrate with addons manager on FX mobile.

I initially thought about trying to port Greasemonkey to Chrome, but by the time I had looked into it, Tampermonkey already existed. It would take a lot of work to port Greasemonkey. I'm not even sure how much of GM could be used (essentially it might require an almost complete rewrite). Why duplicate the effort when an alternative already exists? Plus, I just don't use Chrome. I'm a Firefox user, and spending my time and energy on something I'd never use doesn't sound appealing. I'm a volunteer. Also remember that I'm just a developer, not the maintainer of the project.

You install a script and it changes how a particular website looks or works. For instance, surely you've heard of the Reddit Enhancement Suite. Well that is really just a user script. Sure they wrap it up so you can install it alone in your browser, but I just install it directly using Greasemonkey apparently the user script is no longer maintained. User scripts are like light browser extensions that only modify websites (rather than add menus, toolbars, and do intense shit).

I'd just like to thank you for this, it's made using the web a TON more customizable!

You can thank the original creator, Aaron Boodman (who currently works for Google) for that. I was writing user scripts long before I decided to try my hand at Greasemonkey.

what are your favorite types of scripts to use?

I use scripts that fix how I think a site should function (often removing unnecessary page loads or dumb restrictions). That said, the majority of scripts I use were written by me.
