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.

Don't forget the bizarre "r" into everything like drawring, the lawr, etc.

Thats more American in my experience That and completely dropping entire parts of words for absolutely no reason I can understand

Ex. Comfortable somehow becomes comftable. Drawer becomes drawr. Wednesday becomes wensday

I've only ever heard that "added r" thing when watching BBC stuff. Can you link me to some Americans saying drawring instead of drawing, for example?

The added r shows up in American Midland dialect. Wash becomes warsh, etc
