No, No.

I'm hater hating. But I'm being a touch hateful while doing it.

FACT Anyone who doesn't speak English like me has a funny accent.  If you say "rise up lights," you have just said "razor blades" in an Australian accent.

Why do Americans insist on calling Wimbledon "Wimbleton"

Is it just a matter of literacy or is there something I am missing? The entire time I lived over there (about 7 years) it drove me nuts. I can understand examples of regional pronunciation like calling Birmingham (bur-ming-um) Bur-ming-HAM, but replacing one letter for an entirely random one just seems weird.

I could not care less about tennis if I tried, but it's topical, the tournament just started and it got me wondering..


:popcorn: :shrug:





Heres what Im thinking. If you actually did live in the states for seven years you probably would have gotten over the subtle differences between cross pond accents. Really? After 7 years you feel compelled to make a thread on the shroomery? Meet an americans in america? Fuck any local girls?

You say you have 'lived' there. So this is in the past. I really dont see how a well rounded individual in their 20's < would even bother making a thread about something so stupid. Im guessing you are a very young english guy who hasnt been around much. Either that or you are trolling or are missing a chromosome or two
