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.

Old joke in Finland but a great one. I've had two people tell me this as something that "totes really" happened to their friend lol.

The joke works better with other countries. Swedes usually speak English exceptionally well.

At the risk of overexplaining the joke, I think the word "titta" being used in this context plays a significant role in making this as funny as it is. It just wouldn't be as funny if it was, say, Spanish ("mira") or French ("regarde").
