Accents would be a good topic of discussion. Which do you find most offensive and which most pleasing.

Personally, I abhor southern accents, as they tend to sound like baby talk retained into adulthood. To clarify that, you'd have to have heard a southern drawl first. (Tennessee,Arkansas,Kentucky,Alabama and Georgia all suck ass)

I could listen to both a Louisiana bayou and a New Englander all day. I have a Texas accent, which can be annoying to some I hear.

Real life languages:
  • Finnish
  • English
  • Swedish (badly)
also Perl.

Sorry, but I can't differ accents :P perhaps IF then only british accent from other ones, (since I've heard it many times, yes) but nothing else... :P I think the woman from "Million Dollar Baby" spoke with english accent..

The actress in "Silence of the lambs" used a Texas accent. I would have to rewatch "Million Dollar Baby" but she was from Missouri and if I recall, sounded as such.

Damn, I feel stupid compared to madedog. The dude is like f**king C3PO and is he says "I am currently fluent in over 6 million forms of language"

Madedog, you wouldnt know how to speak 'Bragger' by any chance would you?

Xixi. Or something like that. Tavarish. Bla. If I count all languages that I know one or two words of, I get an impressive list too, yeah.

Well... I bet you would <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> But the difference is, these languages are not the ones I know one or two words of <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> I say - Chinese I know the least and yet I know most of the basic expressions, which are used daily... so... I guess I am at a very beginner level in Chinese.

I'm sorry I ever started with the damn Hex. I'm too laxy to read anyone else's, and I am WAY to lazy to count out the binary. And, ANYONE can "speak" a language online with the help of www.freetranslation.com That's how I get all the german words I don't know when i'm trying to finish a sentence.

"groans"

Apparently, accents was also a boner topic to discuss as it seems to be being ignored like an anonymous fart in a crowd.

I think I am going to stop attempting to initiate a conversation. Safer that way.

Perhaps we can move the little girl to this thread too? How about we move her to every thread? :P
