Jake the Sage Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 [quote name='BrokenHeart15' timestamp='1353472121' post='6074592'] There isn't really a true Australian accent. It's more about the lingo anyways. [/quote] Well if you sound like a stereotypical Australian then my statement remains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanael D. Striker Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Unless you prove it otherwise, Jake can believe what he wants. TBH, you should know that Broken.

The Warden Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I can't quite, describe the accent, but, I know it's not Brooklyn. I suppose it's kind of Southern, but not heavily... I don't know accents that well. I do know though that it drives me nuts to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as if I accuse every american of having the 'american tourist' accent [/quote] As far as I know, there are four accents that Americans make fun of each other for: Californian, Brooklyn, Minnesotan, and New York...ian. There's also the classic Southern accent, but that's pretty much too generic to be categorized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Actually, I think the tourist accent is mid-western. Not sure, but, it sounds about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake the Sage Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Broken I know someone who has been born and raised in Australia and he definitely has an accent. Everyone has an accent and the only problem is that many people don't realize their own accents unless someone points them out to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 We do have some accent, but it's not really that strong, unless you're trying to sound stereotypical. Which we do, when we're trying to screw with Americans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Well he doesn't have a strong accent, but it [i]is[/i] noticeable.

Nathanael D. Striker Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 1. I'm a black or white kind of person, Desu. Gray areas are hard to find. And tbh, people like you and Broken don't help. 2. You seriously need to come to Oregon, then. All we have is a mix of people and a mix of accents. We don't have our own. 3. I did, and I said what was on my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spirit of DMG Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 -pokes Striker in the forehead multiple times- Next time you start getting all depress-y like that, get on YouTube, and listen to a song called "Brooklyn Rage". If you still aren't happy, turn on "Leather Pants". If that doesn't cheer you up, then listen to a Stephen Lynch song entitled "You're Pitiful" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
