It is impossible to hear an American accent when you are reading a comment. Also, there are regional accents in America. There is no such thing as an "American accent."

 

In Italy, conversely, I heard the same accent from Pompeii to Venice. Italians use the "rolling Rs" I can't pronounce and make the last consonant sound almost like an extra syllable.

Wonderful...now she's a freakin' expert in all world languages.

One cannot simply read this without saying it in a Randy Savage voice, even if only in your head.

Maybe in your mind, but no, no it's not. Not in any way shape or form.

 

Yes, I'm fully aware of the fact that there are regional accents but there's also a general accent too. Just like in the UK.

 

To tell the difference between the regional accents in the future, however, I will contact a linguistic expert... so please make sure you're available 24/7, thanks!

I've noticed most of the time someone from the UK does an American accent it pretty much sounds like an American accent.

The last sentence contradicts the second.

Thank you everyone for your immensely positive feedback. I'll post my crowdfund page next week so everyone can get investing.

Investing in what? I don't want warm or cold toilet seats. I just want to have a toilet seat that stays down when I get off of it!

Ello Luv. That's my best UK accent. Can you hear it Jdub?

You dummy, that's Austrian. You better be careful, they're very touchy about that sort of thing.

Should probably be in the Trivial thread, but nothing I love more than a guy on a cell phone blabbing away to his girlfriend while standing at the urinal. I try to get as many farts and flushes in as I can before he walks away.

Of course not. You can't hear written words.

Yeah, most people can.. you obviously can't.

 

It's called imagination.

I came up with an invention as well,  It's for use in cleanup after removing and installing windows, doors, and bathroom fixtures.  It operates along the same principals as a vacuum.  I called it the caulk sucker.

When we were a tiny startup company, in a hotel room downtown, they had just invented those cordless phones, and my partner decided to take one into the bathroom and take a dump while talking to a customer.   The customer was saying, "My phone is making some weird noises."   It was so funny.  We laughed about that for days.
