I've been told I have a cute/cool accent. Whenever I go visit family in Georgia, I come back with a TexPeach accent...Texas mixed with Georgia. Here's my list:
Brits Aussies Southerners -particularly Georgia and Alabama - there's a difference in dialects among the southern states. Italian NY'ers (my Aqua fiance') Boston Irish
i'm not really into the european accents (except irish), since my dad is hardcore italian so i grew up hearing it all my life...plus, i am not a big fan of euro trash!
i don't know...maybe it is b/c i grew up on the east coast and the people kind of bother me...also, a lot of guys i know from boston are a bunch of massholes!!!
Well Gemlover.....they do say that Dracula emulated from Transylvania...perhaps that's why your neck got bitten:-).......seriously though I know cap guy from there.....what a man!!!!:-) and he has invited me to go there on hol....one fine day....it may never happen but then again, knowing me, it will:-)!!
"NYC and upstate accents: Talk becomes tawk. They run words with low sounds together. Like Whatyutawkinbout? Come here becomes come e're. The most famous is "hey you" being tranformed into "a yo". Upstate accents are similar, but they incoporate some of Canandas fuckups of the english languge."
Upstate accents aren't like city accents...at least not where I live...
Although, we do still say "tawk" and "'ere". Also, people don't tend to pronounce the "t" at the end of a contraction...for example, "can't"...the t is basically inaudible, although the word has a weird sort of rounded end that suggests the t. I'd say our accent is more like the mid-west's.
GL, I hail from Southern Upstate New York, closer to Binghamton, if you have any idea where that is (although my family is from Queens). But my accent isn't country (and trust me, I have HEARD country 😛), and it isn't city. It's......smallish city upstate New York? hehe.
"Because I've been told...(by Binghamton alumn)....that the surrounding residential areas are reminiscent of ghost towns. Like the ones you see in the movies. Where the total population is 493, and everyone looks the same b/c your grandmother is your 2nd cousin; and your sister is also your great-aunt."
Yes! And he was adorable in person. I met him to deliver some insurance info to him yesterday evening. OH, and he's a baseball fan. My heart fluttered. LOL...not really.
think theres too many to choose from.. depends on if its a guy or a girl speaking.. few selection for me.. i do like the southern accent and the british.. although i am told i have the southern a bit.. dont see it.. :p
When I visit family in Georgia, I can mock their accent very well. Overall, I don't think I have much of a Texas accent. A few people have asked me if I was from the midwest before. Not sure if I would know offhand how someone from the midwest talks unless they were from Chicago I suppose.

So I was leaving the grocery store tonight and like most evenings, it's pretty busy. I'm not the type of person who will drive around until I find a good parking spot. In fact, I usually park far out in the back of the parking lot. Well, I happened to

The other day I was riding the bus, so since I had nothing better to do, I've calculated what's 79x79x79 in my head, and was off by only 30, and that's coming from a guy that had problem doing 7x8 a month before. Lame-I know, but that's why it's in th
