When I was working over your way a few years back I got speaking to this old American couple. Really nice folk. They thought I was German. Not only that, they thought that I was speaking German. Not speaking with a German accent, they actually thought I was speaking German. Even though they could understand almost every word I said. They had never been outside of the USA, never had a passport and had never seen the ocean "except in the movies". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t know what any of those accents sound like, they’re just guessing. I’m often complimented on learning English in order to move to the US from Scotland.

The go to Twitter move for anyone i start to debate is to say i'm a kremlin bot and then block me.
