Do you ever have times when you start to reply to like five or six different posts and you keep going "Wait, I don't really have anything to say or contribute here, I should back out of this"?
And then you make a self-deprecating post to balance it out. Like this one.
I made popcorn because I need to cheer up, so this is my SHARING POPCORN WITH THE THREAD post
everyday except i have no self control so i often post anyway 
I HAVE POPCORN TOO WOOOHOO POPCORN PARTY!!!
"So where are you from, normal guy who totally doesn't look like a spy?"
"I'm Irish.""Huh, you sound kind of Australian."
"Yup, I'm Australian."
"Okay you sounded kind of American there."
"I'm not a spy."
Mind: blown.

Man, how did you pick up so many accents?
I wish I had an accent. Everyone always says I do when I travel, but I don't hear it. Is Canadian really that distinct?
Games, and teamspeak.
I didn't really pick up the accents. They picked me up. A lot of words I can't even pronounce correctly in another accent. Weird, just like me.
And... I guess Canadian might have the odd bit of French mixed in somewhere, since it's bi-lingual?
Who knows. Sounds logical that with two languages spoken officially, you'd have picked up things from the other over the hundreds of years since colonization in the Canadian take on English.
a little bit it sounds very "carefree and jovial"Man, how did you pick up so many accents? I wish I had an accent. Everyone always says I do when I travel, but I don't hear it. Is Canadian really that distinct?
im rarly offended no worries
Who said it was you I was concerned about 
But, yeah. Coming off as aggressive is not always a good thing.

i don't know a lick of french, but perhaps it did influence us. I just think Albertans have a very neutral accent, it's like the lack of distinction is what defines it
everyone has an accent, you just don't notice it if you speak similarly to the dominant accent in your area/media
Mexicans assume (with good reason to be fair) that anyone who is tall and white is from the US and can't speak Spanish. It can get annoying when neither is the case.And imagine managing a perfect impression, as far as the people here are concerned.
A lot of them wouldn't be able to tell our countries of origin apart, Uncle. They just seem to have that little experience with telling accents apart.
I just have to admit it. It's not my skill, it's their lack of experience that fools them!

Pretty much.
Now that I'm thinking about it, we have Cat's voice recorded. So if Cat's from the same general area as you, well...
I don't know. I think I caught only a little bit, but she also knows French well, as I recall...
* playfully scoffs* well their goes my ego XDWho said it was you I was concerned about
when i moved to alabama from cali my family said i had a very "surfer" voice lol irony is i cant swim XDeveryone has an accent, you just don't notice it if you speak similarly to the dominant accent in your area/media
Did I miss much? Again?

To someone who isn't Canadian? Yep. You do have an accent, but since most people around you have the same one, it just sounds natural to you. Go to, well, anywhere else and people will hear the difference.
I'm a US Midwesterner who moved to the Pacific Northwest, so I run into Canadians and Californians a lot. Both insist they have no accent or that it's the same as Midwestern, both obviously do and its got a lot of differences from mine. It's cute.
So... since we were talking about my accent a bit, I thought a little... And remembered I have a fairly recent video, that is also DA:I related! So, I guess here's a sample of me.
I'm sorry, but I don't have a cool accent and it bugs me! I want to be a brit. 
I'll give a listen when I get home, Serz.
*californian pride voice* we dont have a accent we sound normal XDI'm a US Midwesterner who moved to the Pacific Northwest, so I run into Canadians and Californians a lot.

You guys, if I sounded like Emily Blunt I would be so happy.

Well, if you want to pick up a British accent, go live in the UK for a couple of years. Your natural accent will sound exotic there and during your stay you will pick up bits of the local accent so you will sound exotic when you get back!
Haha, Serza, you oddly sound a lot like my friend who is Israeli but moved to New York City when he was 12.
Let me know when the international accent organisation decide on the official "no accent" way of speaking English. I await with baited breath...
It's gonna be RP, my money says.

Oh man, that would be a dream. If I had money
The coolest accent I heard from someone irl was a woman who grew up in Ireland and moved to Minnesota so she had a bit of the Minnesota accent blended in. It was AWESOME. I want that accent.
*californian pride voice* we dont have a accent we sound normal XD
"when you're from california you're not really a yankee....you're not really anything."
I LOVE accents. Got close to someone from Poland for a while...and yes brit accents are amazing.
We should organize a big Seranader conference call so we could hear everybody's accents!
