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.

Unfortunately you are not allowed to speak in tongues outside of those you were born into.

Also nice username.

yea, it's irritating by way of inconvenience, especially in monocultures like the states, but it isn't wrong or a "bad" behavior, so go for it.

As someone that does this...

People say I'm irritating but endearing.

So take that as you will.

Howdy howdy howdy!

I honestly can't stop greeting people like this, even though I've never stepped foot in a place where it doesn't snow

Depends on context.

This is the same idea as answering the phone with "Talk to me" which is generally from a pompous arrogant character.

Like "I'm here, what do you have to say?"

All the people I've met who did that also happened to be irritating douchebags. Now whether there is a causal relationship and what is the direction of that relationship, I can't say.
