Looking for my British counterpart

[MissAntiSocial]

I love an accent. There's nothing sexier then a British or Irish accent. Maybe even Australian.

So..I would love to see if there are any British Litsters who are willing to chat, maybe even voice sometimes.

Male or female welcome. Somewhere between the ages of 18 and 36.

Well that was fast. After less then 24 hours I had 7 messages.

So a little bump, because I'm selfish and I want more.

Reporting in, just 'cause the thread seemed a little empty.

Thanks!!! You're offically my favorite!! Only because public conversations are someone of a turn on for me.

Although proud of my (estuary) English, I can taunt people in a French accent...

Still on the Holy Grail kick........do you call their mother a hampster?

 

[callidus_everno]

Their father smelt of elderberries, go away you silly englishman or I will taunt you a second time.

I prefer to randomly quote life of Brian myself in my overly pompous accent whenever I feel the need to do it.

Although, I am British, no one seems to be able to pick out which city. It mystifies everyone. I just have a straightforward non regional English accent.

I should do radio to be honest. Last time I was in Holland, I was swamped just because of my accent. Didn't help with my claustrophobia and fear of being crushed in a crowd.

Is it an insult for a Brit to not like Monty Python?? Just curious. Cause I've met a few who said they didn't care for it.

Haha you sound like me. I make myself as little as possible in a group of people. I don't want to be noticed.

I heard some people say they didn't like Python. Think they were from Manchester. They don't have a sense of humour in those parts.



And yes, in a huge crowd of people I tend to want to just go and find myself a nice clear 4 foot of room somewhere and sit down. I abhor going into crowded bars and having to stand like cattle with loads of people.

!!! Ignore him MissAntiSocial. Manchester and the north is where you get a real English accent, plus a real sense of humour. Down south (or "daaan sarf" as Cockneys say) is just made up of wine bars packed with "social media consultants". Even they don't know what their job is...

I have this thing about personal space. When talking to someone, I need to be AT LEAST an arms length away in all directions. Nothing worse then someone who gets inches from your face and doesn't get the hint when you back away, or worse back yourself into a wall and begin to panic.

Hahaha calm down boyies......I love all Brits. And if you're not a Mank, then your a Wank, right?

But cockney is my favorite of all the british accents. Maybe because I can't understand half of it.

 

[Mwool]

You wouldn't understand half of what I say when I slip into my childhood home thick Liverpudlian accent then. Always manage to slip back into that when I go to visit my folks.

Then when I get back to the midlands it takes me about 3 weeks to get back into my normal accent.

An arms length? That is even too short for me. If I had my own way, I would be like the King in Coming to America and sit at one end of a 100ft table on my own and have my guests talk to me on an intercom at the other end.

HAHA. I've never had a problem understanding people from Liverpool, but I'm a huge Beatles fan...so I'm pretty used to it.

When I first moved to the south I let the accent overtake me pretty fast, but it was mostly because I made fun of it a lot. But for the most part, now, I can control it. Except when I'm excited, or when I'm using my best secretary phone voice.

 

[Mwool]

I go really overly English when I am doing my work phone voice, no one trusts a scouser when you are trying to sell them stuff I find.

Have a couple of drinks, or get excited or too comfortable and I just slip into the scouse accent though.

One of those things really, I am like a chameleon. Last time I was in the States, I ended up talking like I was slightly from New York. God help me if I ever went to any of the southern states for a length of time. I don't think I would be able to shift the accent very quickly.

Anyway. I seem to have veered off the Monty Python.

He's not the Messiah! He's a very naughty boy....
