When my contacts bother me. Can't they just stay in my freaking eyes and correct my vision, not feel like they're going to fall out or itch like crazy?

Okay, here's my list. * People who think my accent is cute. ( other than my guy, and I think his is adorable ) * Sexists * Racists * Sarcasm * People who talk about things they don't know while thinking they do * People who want others to dumb down to their level because learning is too hard * Bad families * Fake left wingers * People who only play the music they listened to in their teens, grow the fuck up * Historical re-enactments on the telly treated as real history * Science as drama on Discovery Channel. * Willful ignorance and stupidity May I ask what type of accent you have? Because if it's Australian, it IS cute... Ok, that's one of the last things I'd expect an Australian accent to be described as.

I think Aussie accents are sexy-cute.
I also think Ottery's avatar is adorable. Every time I see it I squee quietly. ^_^

I have a friend from South Africa and her accent does sound similar to an NZ accent. She says she gets that all the time.

Yeah, Aussie/Kiwi/SA accents are rather similar, kind of like American/Canadian (note: I can't tell these two appart).
