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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yep that's pretty close to the Spanish pronunciation, except for the rolled R of course.
In French Lafayette is pronounced la-fa-yet, with flat As like in "cat".
I'm french so take the first one with a grain of salt.
In American English, Madrid Spain is like Mu-drid. Madrid Alabama is like Mad 'rd. It is like being Mad or angry. I didn't see anyone pronouncing it like a local. These are places with a thick annoying southern accent. So it is typically said in a very annoying way with the emphasis strongly in the wrong place.
With Lafayette it is as annoying as possible like Lu as in Luck, FAY as in FAke, at as in hat. All three are like separate word syllables they are so disconnected in a southern redneck American draw.
