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.

As long as the wheelchair guy genuinely thought it was funny it's fine, but in a situation like that I would go and apologize after the race making sure wheelchair guy is alright

Lol, English is not my first language, thanks for reminding me to check the spelling, I will correct it shortly.

EDIT: Done!

Sure doesn't help that my iPhone's dictionary complain about it's own suggestions or even simple words like, "doesn't", "dictionary", "complain", "own", "even", "learned", "ignore" and "most".

So I've learned to ignore it for the most part...

I used to mess that one up a lot. Usually the 's is used for possession but for "it's" it's a contraction of "it is".
