It's Official # Accents are hot.

[meegannie]

I Jesse Malin's Queens accent.

That accent ONLY works on Jesse Malin.

 

[Salome]

I don't really have an accent

until I start trying to talk in english
then I sound like someone who has to be put out of his missery

 

[bammo2]

I like Cornish / Devon accents

as well as Irish and Scottish (Edinburgh especially)

and Australian

and Yorkshire

 

[bammo2]

I thought I didn't have an accent but apparantly I do. I'm sure Meggie can guess what I sound like

 

[meegannie]

 

[bammo2]

It's an........erm................interesting accent, isn't it!

Not exactly an attractive one

 

[meegannie]

I think it depends on the person's voice, really. I fell asleep on Sunday during East Enders and I kept waking up because some woman on that show has the most horrendous voice/accent combination I've ever heard.

 

[bammo2]

which character was that?

 

[meegannie]

I don't know. I was too weak to sit up and look at the tv, or to find the remote to turn it off.

 

[Laura M]

LOL no.

17.

hmm your still a bit young for me

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

omg basstrap

crash

i couldn't finish reading it because of my weak constitution

 

[DrTeeth]

I have a number of accents

 

[zoney!]

I left my spot close to the front of the stage last night at the Travis concert. Two reasons:

1) the six foot blonde detroitite who had to have smoked a pack-and-a-half during the concert (of course with her right hand, meaning her elbow was in my chest the whole show).

2) the sorority-type standing behind me with the high-pitched voice that would say "ohhhhh my fucking gawd - he is soooooo hot - I love his accent" everytime Fran Healy would speak. I wanted to strangle her. Then she freaked when I started dancing to "Circle."

they BOTH made my list. Until I moved, the show SUCKED.

Oh, and nonr Iron accents...I remember trying to carry-on a convo with a guy in a pub in Belfast....no fooking clue what he was saying. We were both sober. I swear.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I it every time I am able to speak to my English and Irish friends, associates and clients on the phone or in person.

South African accents are also hot.

You gotta love norn iron accents liek

You must have got someone with a really strong irish accents - most of them arent that hard to understand- i see americans all the time at university and they never ask me to repeat myself or anything and seem able to understand me

They have spanish students too and this week one of them started talking away to me in spanish - I told him i didnt speak spanihs though - even though I could probably have been able to speak to him a bit - but he freaked me out and was talking really fast.....

does Somerset match up as well? we never get complimented for our corn-chewing, cider drinking bravado.

There are some accents that make me wish it was physically possible to have sex with a voice.

 

[mystery girl]

Not many Kiwis say "eh choice bro" In fact, no one that I know says that

 

[zoney!]

I just wanted to say that everyone I have spoken to on the phone (interferencer-wise) and met in person (interferencer-wise) have such sweet voices.

 

[Bonochick]

If I recall correctly, you made fun of my supposed accent over the phone, zoney.

Hahaha.

Yup, accents are funny.

 

[Bonochick]

I'm proud to be Yooper.

I love having to say, "No, I'm not Canadian!" to all of the people I live by now.

 

[meegannie]

I the UP.

 

[dizzy]

I Jesse Malin's Queens accent.

Aside from Irish and English accents, I find New Yorker (the real ones) accents so cute. Listen to people from Staten Island and Queens.

Um, I think Staten Island accents are worse than having to listen to Celine Dion for hours on end. I would take Celine any day!

 

[Bonochick]

Jealous.

 

[~LadyLemon~]

I don't have an accent.

Irish Fest in Milwaukee ... I like to speak with the vendors and musicians that come over from Ireland just to hear their accents.

 

[jkayet]
