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.

I definitely use "guy" as gender neutral. I used to refer to women as "dude" as well, but it was a bit controversial so I stopped

I'm a dude. He's a dude. She's a dude. We're all dudes!

I also follow the Less than Jake linguistic model.

We need a new word. I suggest blob

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Beware of the blob, it creeps, and leaps, and slides and glides along the floor, right through the door and all around the wall, a splotch, a blotch, be careful of the blob POP

If you must use a redneckism then at least put the apostrophe in the right place.

I have used y'all in a singular sense, then all of y'all in a plural sense before 🤦

All ya'll drawl an appall.

That spelling is "ya[you] will" and I'll brook no disagreement. As in, "ya'll turn right at the Sunoco and go three more rights. Then it'll be on ya left."

The OTS is "y'all" for "you all."
