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.

saying "shalom" or "namastey" or "hola" as a non-native speaker was an irritating "hip" thing to do when that movie came out, and that's a scene where Peter Parker is trying repeatedly to be "hip" and failing spectacularly.

As someone that does this...

People say I'm irritating but endearing.

So take that as you will.
