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 guess cringeheads would be more hip and funky with the young cool cats

I will not be taking questions on how I recognise the extreme agedness of your terminology.

Don't be a jive turkey fool, lad. Just be groovy about it and don't mellow the poor fellow's swing.

Taxi Driver, And Justice For All, Undergrads, Fritz The Cat, and this one dude who I saw who talked and looked like the pimp in Taxi Driver but was fatter and had sorta Tripp Pants. Seattle's wild dude

EDIT: We also gotta bring hip back. In certain old movies, it sounds like fresh, genuine slang. Not like nowadays where it sounds like someone who is out of touch. Must be tone and context.

the pimp in Taxi Driver

That's Harvey Keitel!
