Accents fascinate me. I'm from Virginia, so I have a bit of a southern accent ((random: I say 'yall' all the time)).
I try not to come off as mocking when someone speaks differently, I just think it's cool. One of my best friends is from Massachusetts and it amazes me how much of a difference in slang and regular speaking we have. More than once I've had to define something that I think is everyday language.
Um... yeah, I think I totally avoided the point of the thread, but oh well. My first post. I'm allowed to ramble.

I think I'm supposed to be running part of the chat times but i've neglected my duties severely- maybe if more show interest it'll get off the ground.
Cheers!
