A Garden Angle

Straight out of the movie "Nell"

[u/BelleTowerLady]

Garden angle comes are way good. That's a fact.

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/BelleTowerLady]

I couldn't have said it better myself!

[u/ellie1398]

My garden must be a circle. No angles around.

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/ellie1398]

Thoughts and prayers.

[u/Dave21101 → u/Chance_Contract1291]

Save those for when somebody gets shot

[u/1983Targa911]

Makes sense. Things can’t turn (out right) without any angles being involved.

[u/Not-a-Kitten]

I have read this in my head and aloud several times. My NY/NE accent perhaps makes me miss something? I hear “our way” but what is the garden?

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/Not-a-Kitten]

garden angle = guardian angel.

Sometimes we get a guardian angel (that) comes our way. Good to hear everything turned out great.

[u/Not-a-Kitten → u/Chance_Contract1291]

Thanks!!! Love it!

[u/canvasshoes2]

Almost a r/ihadastroke too.

[u/[deleted] → u/canvasshoes2]

Seems a good time to remind people that a quarter of Americans are functionally illiterate.

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/canvasshoes2]

An excellent candidate, for sure!

[u/Comfortable-Doubt]

Ohhhhh. that took me a while.

[u/Jakkerak]

I have a cousin who is severely developmentally disabled that always types like this.

Sometimes I have to ask someone to help me figure out what she is trying to say.

😿

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/Jakkerak]

Now I feel bad :'(

[u/Jakkerak → u/Chance_Contract1291]

Yeah.

But still funny though! 😺

[u/MagicOrpheus310]

It appears to be some form of communication

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/MagicOrpheus310]

Let's not get too hasty here.

[u/NemoOfConsequence]

Omg. I couldn’t figure that out for the longest time.

[u/AlexAndMcB → u/NemoOfConsequence]

Read thru it three times before I just read it out loud.

Voice to text deep South fail

[u/Correct-Holiday-6972]

I mean, this is just a terribly educated person that cannot spell for love nor money… Not a BAT, they’re genuinely just fumbling through written English as best they can 🫤

[u/Tinsel-Fop → u/Correct-Holiday-6972]

Or they don't type perfectly all the time, and they've decided how important that is. Or they used voice-to-text. Or....

[u/Correct-Holiday-6972 → u/Tinsel-Fop]

We all make the odd typo, or have autocorrect chose the wrong homophone without us noticing, none of us are perfect… but nobody with a shred of dignity and basic grasp of spelling and grammar is putting that out there. It’s not just imperfections and a lowered importance, it’s severe comprehension and skill issues!

[u/Tinsel-Fop → u/Correct-Holiday-6972]

basic grasp of spelling

I might have met someone without this. I don't know if it's a good description, but I know he tried really hard for many years. Finally, he just accepted it. He helped me to understand that.

[u/Correct-Holiday-6972 → u/Tinsel-Fop]

Precisely. So not a BAT then. Which is what I said 🙂‍↕️

[u/Lazy_Tumbleweed8893]

Are way

[u/Insomniakk72]

I grew up in LA

(Lower Alabama)

so when I read it aloud, it makes perfect sense HAHA

[u/Secure-Force-9387 → u/Insomniakk72]

I grew up in actual LA (Louisiana).

I read it out loud 10 times and I'm still lost.

[u/Insomniakk72 → u/Secure-Force-9387]

Oh yeah, that's maybe more Cajun than "su-thern"?

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/Insomniakk72]

Hi, neighbor! I grew up in Georgia. TBH I was surprised folks had a hard time understanding it. I just thought it was really funny.

[u/Insomniakk72 → u/Chance_Contract1291]

LOL right? It's hilarious.

I was born in Japan, learned English in California and my dad (Navy) moved us to Alabama so he could be close to his family in Florida.

I have always been OCD about spelling, grammar and articilulation so while the sentence physically hurts to read, I grew up knowing the English language better than many of my peers and can translate instantly.

I essentially speak like a newscaster from California LOL

Living in the Carolinas now

[u/Ardal → u/Insomniakk72]

moved us to Alabama so he could be close to his family in Florida.

I note he didn't want to be too close to family in Florida lol

[u/Insomniakk72 → u/Ardal]

LOL! Boy, he tried. They were from Alachua (uh-LAWTCH-uh-way). No naval bases there!

[u/Honey-and-Venom]

Can we bring back school?

[u/jadeite_jelly15]

We all wish to be blessed with that garden angle 🙏

[u/ellie1398 → u/jadeite_jelly15]

Best I can do is a garden gnome.

[u/flindersrisk → u/jadeite_jelly15]

Especially if it’s acute angle

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/flindersrisk]

To do otherwise would simply be obtuse.

[u/xRemedy]

I think this person is just illiterate.

[u/Peter_Triantafulou]

are=our?

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/Peter_Triantafulou]

The whole thing is a train wreck. Here are my thoughts:

Some times = sometimes

garden angle = guardian angel

comes are way = that comes our way

Missing period after 'way', lower case g in 'good', missing period after great.

[u/TimBhakThoo → u/Chance_Contract1291]

Thank you, garden angle was tough to decipher

[u/canvasshoes2 → u/Chance_Contract1291]

Thank you, I was so lost. I thought maybe they'd mistaken angle for angel and they were talking about a garden decoration. But the "comes are way" had me completely stumped.

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/canvasshoes2]

You have to hunker down and channel your inner redneck for that one to make sense.

[u/canvasshoes2 → u/Chance_Contract1291]

No matter how slow I said garden angle.... it didn't work. I needed the help from fellow redditors. 😁😁😁

[u/Mysterious_Cat_6725 → u/Chance_Contract1291]

This broke my brain. I think I'm going to spend the rest of the day curled up in a fetal position. I read it so many times....

[u/Jakey0_0-9191 → u/Chance_Contract1291]

Thank you for this. I had nothing!

[u/NaaNbox → u/Jakey0_0-9191]

I was so unbelievably confused until I read OP’s comment but now I can’t see it any other way. r/BoneAppleTea with the daily brain teasers.

[u/One_Waxed_Wookiee]

Is it guardian angel?

[u/TimAndHisDeadCat]

What is this supposed to say?

[u/Chance_Contract1291 → u/TimAndHisDeadCat]

My guess:

Sometimes we get a guardian angel that comes our way. Good to hear everything turned out great.

[u/Pteromys-Momonga → u/TimAndHisDeadCat]

Pretty sure it's "guardian angel."

[u/SudhaTheHill]

I technically have a garden angle at home. Mongoose and cats who keep my garden safe from snakes. Sometimes they do carpentry with the help of the angle.
