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.

Doesn't bubby mean grandmother?
So apparently it can be both Grandma and baby, and I have no idea why. I did double check, though.
"Bubbe" only meant grandmother originally. The "baby" meaning almost certainly comes from it being a false cognate with the English word.
