  1. Dry drunks do tend to like the smell of rubbing acohol.
  2. Honestly, I didn't figure it out until I saw Bucket's Toronto thread. @Vixen_catgirl I don't want to be too invasive, but since you're talking about taking this little bitch out, does that mean he "bothered" you by actually coming up to you? Seems to be the case, but not entirely clear.
  3. You worked for Bose, huh?
  4. Sometimes an accent adjust because of the melding of foreign words into the English language. Sometimes it's an adaptation of a foreign accent, which seems to be the case in the Bronx. In a lot of cases, the accent is influenced to a certain degree by both. Personally, I wouldn't mind if Angelenos all sounded like they were straight out of an episode of Zorro.
  5. There can be only one.
  6. Accents depend a lot on the dominant historic foreign accent or language of the region. I like cracking on Cardi B because she's so terrible as rapper, but she's also emblematic of how an accent derives out of a foreign language.
  7. Surprisingly enough, I hear it too. In fact, I just got off the phone with someone who's my age at least who speaks that way. It totally throws off my perception of the person since I often rely on voice to give me some idea who the person is before I actually meet them.
  8. The valley girl, surfer thing isn't particularly regional though. Those are more sub-cultural.
  9. No. Spanish words and phrases are used extensively for place names, food staples, and idioms, as occasionally are words from the Mesoamerican languages in historical contexts. Most of us born here learn to use the pronunciation automatically, and without having become fluent. But I am proficient enough to read and understand the more common phrases.
  10. Lol. I'm jealous of Pooh"s accent. Californians don't have a particularly distinct accent, at least not in English. Mesoamerican Spanish (our other native tongue) influences our vowels and some short consonants, but that can disappear quickly depending on who we are talking with.
  11. You kids and your terminology. Musket is right. Starting an indirect war is going to come back to you in ways you can't predict. Wait until you catch him in the act of harassing someone, then intervene. Otherwise leave it alone.
  12. thats wired
  13. ok... let party
  14. The correct answer was... Metalbar in the shower.
  15. V8 doesn't have chew in it, though.
  16. Because we all fucked your mom? I'm not really sure where this is supposed to go.
  17. Probably for the same reason your baked meat pics aren't in the DF where they belong... Because you're an idiot.
  18. Well that's good to hear.
  19. The fuck is wrong with you?
  20. Pretty sure you don't have that either, but your doctor probably would catch anything like that after bloodwork is done.
  21. That would be allergies. I think you'll be all right.
  22. Usually (but not always) a disorder of the nervous system would include repeated spasming and involuntary muscle movement. Having heavy motion isn't unusual for a panic attack.
  23. It's "dying." And, by muscle weakness, what do you mean exactly?
