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.

thats not how our language works
latino*
way to mark yourself as a conservative jackass. Do you like licking yankee boots?
Who the fuck are you, pendejo?
Lungas combia con teimpo. No te vives en la pasada. Si queires a vivir in en la pasada apredenate Azteca. No la lengua de noestros concadores.
What the fuck is a lunga? Teimpo? 🤦
Latine at least sounds better, but I hate how close to latrine it is. The point is that we can identify our roots in Latin America when speaking with others, and unfortunately for the people trying to corrupt our lengua, the vast majority of speakers seem ok with using the subtleties of context in a Spanish sentence to understand that everyone is being referred to when using either Latino or Latina.
If that makes you uncomfortable, play with duo lingo some more until you truly grok this language.
I'd like a queer latino's take on this, I'm truly interested in their opinion. Even that sentence, the majority understand I'm asking for input from everyone, whether I'd written Latino or Latina.
