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.

No, it was generation specific, and some dumb kids didn't understand what it meant and just thought "haha mean word."

And you were so close to getting it! Keep trying, kid!

You already admitted that I'm right, you just haven't realized it yet.

The N word doesn't literally mean people with skin that is black. It means people with dark skin of African descent which is a much wider scope.

You put quotes around black. The word is a reference to a larger group, just like "boomer" is a reference to a group larger than people born between 1946-1964.

Boomer was derived from the term baby boomer, but they don't share a definition.

Oof, you're easing comprehension needs some work, too.

Tell you what, let's look to an authority.

4 : a person born during a baby boom : baby boomer

Huh, how about that.

Good luck in school tomorrow, kid.

You keep ignoring the fact that I specified "when used as a pejorative."
