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.
saying "shalom" or "namastey" or "hola" as a non-native speaker was an irritating "hip" thing to do when that movie came out, and that's a scene where Peter Parker is trying repeatedly to be "hip" and failing spectacularly.
I've lived in Texas as long as I can remember, but I was born in California.
Spanish finds it's way into my everyday speech constantly.
My family is white as fuck, but my mother became fluent in college.
I took Spanish in high school for my foreign language credits.
While I'm not fluent, I've worked closely with people who primarily speak Spanish with a little broken English.
The little bit of Spanish I recall, and the little bit of English they know, allowed us to work together.
Is that irritating?
why did you feel that someone, using a foreign word, to look cool, was similar to you using a second language, to communicate with its native speakers? Honest question here. That seems like a big leap in logic to me.
