    Reading threads in this section

    Maybe I'm a weirdo and alone with this, but I can't help it when I read the threads posted by the UK members I read them in my head with a British accent. It mostly sounds like what I've heard in the few Guy Ritchie movie's I've seen...

    Just thought I'd share that with you all.


    and if you want I grew up in Arkansas, one of the most redneck places in the US so feel free to read this with an ignorant southern accent, and you could even go as far as gettin some Skoal or a plug of Cannonball tobacco to really complete the transition!

    ...I tired to say "really complete the transition" as if I were drunk. Does that count?

    I read every thread, every post, every time, wid a tick as molasses Jaah-mhey-con accent Mon...

    It's so much more interesting & "international" than the usual Norsk/German monologue that rambles constantly through the grey matter...

    Welcome to Jamiaca Mon, have a nice day!...A-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha...

    If it makes anyone feel any better, I also read all of the Canadian people's posts with the word Eh injected into about every 5th word eh?


    And New York and New Jersey posts I put "you *** hole" at the end of all of their sentences

    One I can't figure out is the Australian accent. I just haven't seen enough movies to get a good sound for it in my head... Although I usually picture an alligator with a boomarang in his hand standing up on his hind legs speaking when I read their posts!

    I like to read some in that stereotypical German accent from the dumb movies. "Yah, he mus vol tha silvavare"

    I know it's not right, but I kept reading Perhaps the best VX eBay ad EVER in a heavy, baritone Russian accent.

    If its any help you can actually hear me speak in my finest Scottish-boarding-school* accent in this video by Crotchrocket

    I have to admit I use a generic West Coast accent for all of you guys. Apologies for those on the Eastern Seaboard.
