yes, everyone does, but we're all so xenophobic and self centered that we think it's everyone else who has the accent and not us.

I use y'all to precede motherfuckers a lot.

you have a deep voice. i was like

but then again i was drunk

of course I do.

I had a beard when I was 14, just like marvin gaye.

For some reason (quite probably as I'd just smoked a joint) I became quite self-conscious that I sounded like Hugh Grant or that English guy who was in 24 when we were playing LBP the other day. I like to think I just have a non-region-specific English accent.

do i have an accent? haha

you didn't remind me of any english actors I know, but I wasn't looking for comparisons either.

and kiley, you sound like any other girl I talk to around here. here being northern california, not the internet.

Oh, coo.

I tend to find that people with really strong regional accents are invariably stupid.
For example, in all the times I was in hospital in London, I never encountered one neuro-surgeon, or medical professional of any sort with a cockney accent. It would've scared me if I did.

y'all is such an integral part of the vocabulary around these parts, I say the word but with no accent because I don't have an accent, if that's possible

but as far as accents go, bear grylls has the coolest accent going

i also say "ER" instead of are

not all the time, but sometimes. and i talk fast and smash words together.

Even I say y'all. I also like to punctuaute sentences by putting "Bitch" at the end, which seems to be a predominantly Afro-American thang.

dan says i do, but i think hes wrong. mostly with words like jog and clog he says them more like jaw and claw and im like jah and clah. im not sure if that makes sense but there it is

where ya from?

chicago, basically

im rarely grammatically correct. fuck it.

2 weeks ago some dude from boston was hitting on me

i was like WHAT DID YOU SAY? about 4 times before i stopped talking to him at all.

Since I've lived on the west coast my whole life, I don't notice or have anyone point out that I talk funny.

One thing I do know was that when I was living in northern CA, I had to make sure I said "soda" instead of "pop".

you commonwealth and your shorthand.

it's sodium bicarbonate, please.

yes
duh

florida cracker

bklyn i guess

I wonder if I'll ever go to America in my life. As I've seen so much of it throughout my life in beloved movies and TV shows, I kind of think it'd be like meeting one of your, for want of a better word, heroes (all of mine are dead - it's the best way to avoid disappointment) and inevitably finding out that they suck. Then again, England sucks, but it's a kind of suckage I'm very used to. At least I still don't live in Ireland.

places all kind of suck.

The occassional ESL accent pops up.
I say cookie as kooky, slur, and stutter on certain words.
