What accent do you really hate? and which one you love?

>>We do not kick people using big boots and kangeroo's are not that common in Australia.<<

You watch too much Simpsons and never leave the city. Kangaroos are a pest; there are too many and they need to be culled more.

A lot of Australian's are very good at copying American accents.
The most easiest American accent to copy would have to be the accent used in Texas.

>> You watch too much Simpsons and never leave the city.<<

I do watch a lot of Simpsons and a lot of the stereotypes on the Simpsons about Australia are not true. I don't live in the city, I live in the suberbs. I have traveled by car to the country countless times and I have even traveled by car from Victoria to Queensland. During the time I have travelled in Australia I have hardly seen any Kangeroo's.
So you should not judge people who you dont' even know.

>> I don't live in the city, I live in the suberbs<<

Suburbs, city agglomeration: same thing.

>>So you should not judge people who you dont' even know. <<

But you missed the point. There are too many kangaroos in Australia. Just because you hardly see them doesn't mean they're not there!

All accents are hard to understand or sound annoying.
There is no such thing as a normal accent.
There is no correct pronounciations of words.
I think we should all laugh at our own accents.

***I think we should all laugh at our own accents***

Most of us leave that to those not lucky enough to share our accents, Glaswegians and Scousers (and the Jade Goody Sarf Landun twang) excepted. In which cases I would die from an excess of mirth.

I wonder what Adam thinks about the case in Derbyshire, England, concerning a copper (policeman for those not familar with British slang) who was involved in a road traffic violation - driving along the hard shoulder of a motorway. He panicked when apprehended by on duty traffic police officers and he pretended to be a Frenchman, and when asked for his name in a trice he thought up the not very original name Jean Reynard, and began to speak in his version of a Frenchman speaking very bad English. He is now no longer a copper and now languishes at Her Majesty's Pleasure (a posh name for prison). What a wanker.

Australian accents are easy to understand, anyone who doesn't agree with me has never been to Australia before. Both American and British people can be hard to understand at times only because they spell and pronounce words differently. I have a nice clear Australian accent and I think my accent sounds pretty cool.

Is there any intelligent life in Australia? Apparently not judging by the most recent posts from down there. Americans don't have to explain our obesity to them, either. They're fat fecks as well, generally speaking and I think that Aussie kids are leading the charge to win the title of porkiest children in the world. Go Aussie go! Win another one for the green and gold!

This is starting to remind me of that General Public song: "Open my mouth and out pops something spiteful!" ;)

There's some famous quote about how no Englishman can open his mouth without making another despise him; it seems that this applies to all English speakers. No matter how you speak, someone else will hate it. On the other hand, there's probably someone who loves it too.

I find it amusing how quickly utter strangers can come to detest each other online, on even the most innocuous of subjects!

Thanks for McDonald's, Mr seppo dude. Dude!!!

I know you want us to look just like your Mckiddies pictured here...

O'rly? Yes really.

In this case, though, this has less to do with how people actually talk and more to do with (anti)nationalist sentiments, the conflation of the ideas of states, corporations, and peoples, and the translation of conflicts in one area into other unrelated areas. For instance, all this talk about Americans being overweight really has nothing to do with such at all, and really has little to do with the American populace, but rather is simply the indiscriminate projection of views of American foreign policy and corporate influence upon the American people as a whole in a manner completely unrelated to American foreign policy and corporate influence. Likewise, much of the time opinions of dialects in the US held by people from without English-speaking North America have very little to do with such at all, which is often shown by the contradictory views shown by many of the same people of dialects in Canada (since English dialects in the US and Canada are very similar overall in reality).

No Americans are fatter and more stupid than Australians.
America is over populated stupid yanks.
