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.

On the other hand, your German beers are much better than our French beers. Perhaps it was kind but clumsy advice?

Nah, he seemed pretty pissed. I think it's more like being fed up with German tourists as a waiter - meant not the general public, but this waiter personally. This was in the north eastern part of France. So Germany is quite close

Pissed because you used the wrong "the"? Upholding the "French people are rude" stereotype!

As an aside, thank god English doesn't use gendered "the". It has enough problems as it is!
