I personally will never understand the appeal of poached eggs

A bit ago I knocked over my diet soda on the desk, cursed, screamed, said "never again! NEVER AGAIN!" as I scrambled to clean up everything

...

then I did it again 20 minutes later...

To be fair I don't blame you, I can pick out very very few US accents and a very large amount of the stuff on TV over here is from the US. Like the best I can do is tell if someone's from the south and that's about it, no idea which state or anything. Like I can barely even tell apart US accents and Canadian accents.

I used to hate runny eggs too but I've since grown to love it.

For the most part theres little variation in American accents besides southern or Appalachian or I guess the couple in new York/new jersey/Philly(on TV). Its pretty rare for someone to speak with the actually noticeable version of their accent. And Canadian is hardly different from American and you get lots of Americans who have never been to Canada who speak the same way. But theres the more exaggerated versions occasionally there too

I overnighted an XB1 controller so I could play local Garden Warfare 2 with my niece today, but her mom for some reason decided not to bring her over. She owes me $9.

(She should be coming tomorrow though)

Incidentally, I can say definitively that this new XB1 controller is far better than my launch one. The launch one's bumpers are fuck awful. They fixed it. I now feel safe saying this is a better pad than the 360.

Oooh they fixed them? Hm I might have to get one after all.

Garden Warfare 2 is really fun by the way.

they film a bunch in Pittsburgh so idk :p

ofc the people with thick Pittsburgh accents are at a minimum

I hope this isn't too offensive but a thick pittsburgh accent makes the person sound like they have a mental illness/deficiency.. If you hear it you almost can't believe it's real and not pretend
 
yeah. if I recall correctly there was a lot of that in the various extras and stuff in early X-Files seasons (it was filmed in Canada).

That was in Vancouver though, wasn't it? The accent in the video is from the middle of the country.

Canada is America's polite hat

Fuck you. And tuck Florida back into your pants.

I don't even know of a Canadian accent.

Haha

There absolutely isn't a single Canadian accent, but since everyone has an accent, you, proud Upper Canadian, have one too.

True, except Pittsburgh is an American accent for better or worse, so it doesn't trigger the foreign alarm.

I'm curious if you've heard a real pittsburgh accent before, because -- american? It almost doens't even sound human

I wonder why Boston seems to be a popular setting for movies. Their accents are obnoxious.

You already said this and I agree. also I don't have a Pittsburgh accent
True, except Pittsburgh is an American accent for better or worse, so it doesn't trigger the foreign alarm.

I meant more that if you have people with Pittsburgh accents in the scene you really can't claim the setting is anywhere else than pittsburgh

Isn't that sunfish video Bostonian? The one where he's like "look at that fooking theen, we're seen somethin we ain't never seen before"
