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.

What do you mean "not grammatically wrong" ?

"An" is used before words that start with a vowel sound.

An orange. A cop. An easter egg. A yeast overgrowth. An hour. A hero. etc.

Ok thank God, I thought I was going crazy for a second. This is the rule I follow and I had a moment where I thought maybe I'd been wrong my entire life. Should be more confident.
