Family Guy - How English People Sound to Americans

alien_concept says...

>> ^oritteropo:

Does sound quite Australian, even a bit South African, but not very English at all to me.
I'd like to think that if they did get an Australian, that he'd know how to do a proper BBC accent!

This is a case where you could be forgiven for mistaking the accent for australian, there's definitely a hint of australian in that british accent.

No question. I wonder what the real accent of the actor is?

If they got in someone british, i bet they've spent a stint down under at least. Could very easily be a bad impression considering how often they're mixed up.



Australian and South African sound very similar, sometimes I can hardly tell the difference

Occupy Wall Street: Outing the Ringers

Also, winston, i will be very surprised if you have met "most" of the people who agree with Occupy Everywhere. I will be even more surprised to find out that you haven't but you're going around stating that "they are mostly college students who favour leftist causes."

Not only is it a guess, but it is an irrelevant point - the group is more likely to be subscribed to by people who have to tolerate all the worst things about the current state of affairs. I mean, i wouldn't be surprised if there were no rich twats there, because they're the ones benefitting from things being how they're being.

Now, "left-wing and leftist generally refer to support for an egalitarian society" - this is straight from wikipedia which is the only source i am going to dignify you with (and it's a fine source for meanings of words anyway). Let me also paste you their definition of egalitarianism;

"Egalitarianism (from French égal, meaning "equal") is a trend of thought that favors equality of some sort among moral agents, whether persons or animals. Emphasis is placed upon the fact that equality contains the idea of equity of quality. That is, all people should be treated with the same dignity or be regarded as possessing the same intrinsic qualities despite our societal diversity of race, religion, ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation, gender expression, species, political affiliation, socioeconomic status, (dis)ability or cultural heritage."

Are you surprised that the people who are protesting about the current state of politics and the economy are people who want fairness and equality amongst human beings?

Are you telling me you do not? Because if you do, then i could quite easily call you a leftist cause supporter. All you're trying to do is cloud up the issue and try to make Occupy look like something it is not by labelling it with something that looks right but falls down under scrutiny. They are NOT leftist, they are the rational minds of millions of human beings that no longer want to be lied to, and they're working to make a better world for you even while you sit there trying to sabotage them.

Understand this; underneath politics and government, underneath the concept of money, we are all animals fighting for survival. We animals banded together into familiar groups, because we're pack animals, and we called them countries. To make things easier for ourselves, we put rules in place that everyone agreed upon - laws if you like - for the benefit of all of us. We had to entrust some people with the power of governing these things.

At some point, the basic principles of why we have countries and government were lost. Don't try and tell me, or anyone out there sleeping rough outside financial centres worldwide, that this is an unfair assessment.

I did not want to flat out say the voice in my head....

CARS ?

In reply to this comment by garmachi:
What voice? The one in your head? I'm pretty sure you've not heard me, unless you somehow bugged my house! :

In reply to this comment by BoneRemake:
No problem-0

Are you from down under? The voice tells me you are.

Wanted to know what side of the road you drive on? Pretty sure I seen in a Periodic Videos video it was like Britain's.

70s Channel - Approve or Deny (User Poll by lucky760)

volumptuous says...

Not into this idea. Vintage is generally 25yrs or older. 70's is vintage. Vintage has a channel.

Also, as with "down under" or "asia" or "british", I see this being used for anything that happened in the 70's, whether the time period is important to the video or not. Just as anyone with a british accent in a video gets tagged "british".
