Accents? Who's got one? - Vitamin E - 02-16-2007

Mine's pretty fahked. I grew up in Northern Minnesota but lived in Carolina too long. So now it's a mix of nasally Fargooooo and Mayberry drawl.

So I say Don and Dawn the same way.
Cot and Caught are also pronounced the same.
About sounds like 'a boot'.
Beer has two sylabels.
Common greeating is "whatdaya know, eh?"

I have a Texas accent. I try to hide it when I'm talking to people that don't. When I'm not hiding it, I sound like an undereducated hick.

The Irish is fading a little. Some people only pick it up after listening to me for a while. I had to slow it down for the Americans.

After being home for a day or so it sounds like I never left. And when I'm drunk.

Have you ever had a conversation with anyone from newfoundland? It's fucking outrageous, you're lucky if you understand 2 out of 10 words.

No, in an "I'm as dumb as a box of rocks" way.

The accents there are heavily influenced by a west of Ireland accent, and in some places they still speak a form of Gaelic. I have no problem.

I hate my accent. I do sound dumb. It's smoother than the one I picked up when I lived in Phoenix, but I didn't sound dumb then.

Where's Clay when we need him.. I'd like to hear him try to explain that it's not the weed that makes him the only person in Kansas that sounds like Spicoli.
