Use white like the rest of us.

Because I already stand out, even if I do try to blend. I'm different, and I like it that way. Thanks for your input.

Ah. Will correct the spelling, thanks for the info ! And by the by...what part of L.A.? It's a big damn city, and so the various suburbs are still "L.A." so says my hubby...he grew up in L.A.

I now live in Canyon Country (next to Santa Clarita - up the 5 and then the 14) - being English I find the name hilarious, and just SOOO American. Every time I go outside I look out for tumbleweeds

I know what you mean about everything appearing so big - some friends of mine from England came to visit, and wanted to go to Disneyland, Seaworld (San Diego) and the Sierra Nevada's in the space of a day. They didn't realise California is bigger than England

And can an American please explain to me - what is so facinating about an English accent? Not that I'm complaining mnd you - the American women seem to love it!

Ah. Hubbby grew up in Manhattan Beach/ Hermosa Beach areas...and compared with many American accents, the British sound a bit more classy. Most of them, there are those who sound absolutely horrid on occasion...and if you don't have the ear for an Irish accent, God help you. You'll never understand a bloody word. (I'm Scot/Irish myself..surname "Kirby" before marriage.)

Wife is of Irish heritage, although she's a Yorkshire lass

Tala · 12-28-2002, 02:07 PM

Yeeeha. Must be great fun to listen to her accent.

Seriously, though, my accent sounds like a strangely garbled mix of Glasgow meets hillbilly southern. I'm a riot at parties.

Irish heritage, Yorkshire upbringing, Cardiff University education, then she lived and worked in Bristol (my home town

)

Unbelievably, she has no discernable English accent! It's amazing, no-one can figure out what part of England she's from!

LOL! Classic! People can't figure out if I was raised in the states and just loopy, or if I was raised in Ireland and wanna be a redneck. I let them figure it out for themselves, it's often entertaining and has been known to produce extra cash from those drunk enough to play the "bet you $50 you can't guess where I grew up" game.

I'll have to try that - I can do a superb Irish accent

I've still got a long way to go to outdo a friend of mine - a few years ago, a group of us went out on the piss in England, and someone decided that it would be fun if we all talked with a foreign accent (hey, we were young, stupid and drunk...) for the evening...

Anyway, our friend Ian decided that he would be Dutch for the evening, and put on the most appaling Dutch accent. We ended up in a club, and start talking to a bunch of what we hope are young, single and loose women. We introduce Ian as "Iaian from Holland"

One of the girls starts talking to him in fluent Dutch - it turns out that her father is Dutch, and is a pilot in the Dutch Air Force

Ian, without missing a beat, replies "Ahha, no, I am in England - I must speak only the English language properly!"

It worked!!!! The bastard got laid as well!

you guys are out of control...

RIOT!!!!

Here's one that actually worked as well...try it sometime. Just make sure the guy is really drunk...and if you're a lady, then the likelihood of being slugged is slimmer.

Bet the gentleman (preferably already plastered) $50 that you can put a shot of your favorite drink under a hat (fedoras are best for this, although it works with a cowboy hat REALLY well...just make certain the hat is opaque) and, without touching the hat atop the drink, you can drink the drink.

Natch, he's gonna go for it, after all, how can ya drink a drink under a hat without lifting the hat?

Slip under the table, or behind the bar, whichever (it's best to do that, I did this as a bartender, can't drink on duty, but hell, snortin a shot of coca cola is leagal!) and, making sure he's not peekin, pretend to drink the drink.

Come up for air and grin at him. Tell him the drink is gone. When he tries to tell you that you're fulla shit, get rude and tell him that if he doesn't believe you, he can bloody well have a look for himself, the sonofabitch calling you a liar...(it's good for a lday to pretend she's offended, trust me, he's gonna look)

When ol' cocky drunk bastic lifts the hat offa the table to peer at the completely full shotglass, snatch the glass and down it. See? $50 in your pocket, all because you proved that you could down the shot without touching the hat.
