I'm lucky, I can adopt almost any accent and be halfway believable. Of course, I also watch a lot of foreign TV/Movies and listen to a good bit of foreign music.
You should hear my German accent, I think its spot on. I sound kinda like Till Lindemann, though. Of course, that's not a bad thing, because Till's motherfucking awesome as hell.

I had a very weird accent as a kid. It's what comes from learning to talk around people who all had different accents.
I sort of had a Chicago/Texas hybrid, until I went to speech class. Now I have a generic American accent, but if I get pissed apparently I relapse into sounding like I'm from Chicago.

Sanda, do you think your voice will marry me? Well, I suppose it might if you ask it. But I have to warn you, I've heard that disembodied voices are dreadful in bed.

Okay, I have another one. When the computer, when loading a web page, displays, "Done." Yet the page is blank. WTF?

With the upcoming election to look forward to, I'm really annoyed by some most of the people who will vote for the so-called "Progress Party". PP is our very own neo-con party, and I get seriously annoyed by people with regular or low income who think they will in any way benefit from having PP in government. What good is lower taxes if you don't make enough money to get a tax cut? Have you no greater vision for the society than lower taxes, cheaper gas and easier access to alcohol? Doesn't it strike you as odd that the "Progress Party" tries to sell itself as the party for the average man, yet gets massive financial support from billionaires? And for good reason, PP's political program will certainly undermine the common workers' chances to a share in the profit. Try to read the party's program. Fuck you! Fuck you very much!
Edit: My grammar dissolves in anger.

People who are completely offtopic from the thread/OP. * Bans nearly everyone who has contributed to the last 2 pages* Open anus, remove stick. What annoys me is getting 100s on quizzes and homework, then getting bloody 87s on the exams. WTF? OK, THIS annoyed the FUCK out of me... Was in 7th or 8th grade. Big math test comes along. Puke girl ends up crying, She ONLY GOT A 97!!!!. I was like "shit, what are YOU crying about? I got a 12"

[late to the party] Aussie accents are sexy. I could never date a guy with an Australian accent though, the mere presence of an Australian accent seems to make me feel all inadequate. So us colonials can actually make British people feel inadequate huh? There is only one logical conclusion, Australians have superpowers. Now if I only knew how to harness these powers for my own personal gain the good of humanity... Any ideas?

I am exceptionally insecure, I doubt your average chav can be made to feel inadequate quite so easily.

I'm thinking more along the lines of rabid dogs (that goes for their Australian counterparts too).

When people talk and chew food at the same time, especially when done right next to my ear. That horrible noise makes me feel stabby. People who seem to make a point of never covering their mouths and noses when they sneeze. That's disgusting. This. Thank you. I mean seriously. Also annoying, at least to me: Anyone who uses the phrase "he would have wanted" in an awkward way. "He would have wanted me to do it" means, basically, "If he were still alive, he would approve of me doing it." As such, it shouldn't be used for scenarios that arise solely because of the person's death. "He would have wanted me to attend the rally" means, roughly, "If he were still alive, he would approve of my attending the rally." No problem there. "He would have wanted me to bury him in this kind of coffin" means, roughly, "if he were still alive, he would approve of my burying him in this kind of coffin." It makes no sense! If he (whoever "he" might be) left instructions in his will to choose that kind of coffin, then you can say "he wanted," and if he didn't, you're stuck with " I want, but in no case should you say "he would have wanted." Also annoying in a less subjective sort of way: The two adjacent zits on my face. Would one or both of you please go away?
