jeffpugh Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 (edited) Well, I have an accent too. In the Ontarian view, it's more of a Scottish-oriented (due to many teachers who immigrated from Scotland 100 years ago. Hence, the "aboot" anomaly) tint to an otherwise flat English tone.

MIKolbe Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 yeah.. but you don't have a cute lisp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starets Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 in 7 years of living in Ontario and 44 years living in Canada I have never heard anyone say "aboot". I do tech support in a call center for an american ISP. I had a caller once who had a very thick English accent. I think she may have been from Nottingham originally as I had a friend from nottingham once and the caler's accent was very similar. She could not understand MY accent. So I repeated my instructions in HER accent. She loved it ... but neither of us had a lisp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prose Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 (Hijacks Proses account) Meh. I think she sounds like a deaf person. I think thats the source of the lisp. LOL good points I spose. But still I think it imprudent to wear a rosary as a fashion accessory -LONG LIVE THE LAMMA KING- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 One time a friend and I were at one of those "power crystal clothing stores for rich middle aged hippy baby boomers in moss colored sweaters" and admittedly we were both irritated that they were selling these goopy gaudy looking rosary necklaces. The girl has a point though. I've never been very comfortable with a superficial usage of ANY religious figure or object -- regardless of religion. With the entire world becoming so globalized and permeated with consumerism and entertainment value, I think people object because of an innate fear we have of losing a sense of the mysterious and sacred. P.S. I liked her usage of the word "fugly." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
