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.

Cunt is a greeting, not an offence.

I wish I were greeted by cunt wherever I went

True - in the south they call you a berk.

In Cockney rhyming slang, the second half of the rhyme is mostly left off. In this case, the second half is left off and the first half is shortened.

Berkley Hunt = Cunt

Not true, it just sounds more like Kant south of the border, which I think makes us sounds more philosophical.
