Wtf is wrong with people? My Midlands accent is hardly the finest English (mi duck) and I am used to hearing fings instead of things or everyfink (everything) but what's the deal with people (fashion victims/sheep) saying sch instead of s? Like schtream (stream) or schweet (sweet) once you hear it you can't 'unhear it' and why do the same people say bettaaaah instead of better? Are they simpletons or just plain lazy and stupid? Sorry for the rant, my missus says I'm turning into Victor Meldrew, I don't believe it!!!
Goddamn Yankees! Aloominum, jagwar, ;-) Tbh I don't really have a problem if that's how people actually speak, it's the 'fashion victim thing' that boils my p#ss.
i'm drawn to posh accents. mmm dirry my daughter is quite well spoken, but in a totally different language. kids today, fit they like.
it serves a purpose. kinda like when folks break into the Gaelic to keep the convo private. i know what yer man just called you here byraway. you wouldn't like it. accents rock. i v,much like the northern english accents. particularly around the Lakes area.

Accents do indeed rock, although not wanting get all colloquial, by far the most appealing is Geordie, although a study by Wordfinder WordTips analysed 528,600 tweets and implemented an AI algorithm to sort through Twitter users' thoughts on 40 UK dialects, assessing whether tweets were positive, negative or neutral. And what came out on top? Well, that'd be the mighty Sheffield accent. Who’d thought?
yip, i knew a few gordies when i worked in aberdoom. (and several customers here in argyll) maybe it was the unintended dourness of the city of Aberdeen accent that amplified it but the gordie accent could put a skip in yer step even when narrating the saddest of stories. i like most western isles accents too. they have a way with the words. almost poetic/musical. tho one or two do grind my gears. probably because of first impressions of somebody that i worked with who was a totally twofaced fug faced cvnt from Scallpay. he broke into Gaelic regularly to slag every man as his dog off. cvnt.
It’s the kids from the Home Counties that speak as if they’re from London that make me laugh. My gym is in Ascot, and some of the kids sound like they’re from the ghetto, all while mummy drops them off in the Bentley, bloody muppets.
I really warm to the geordie accent, I've worked with loads of them over the years, one time I was working in Hook van Holland, me and this big geordie walk into a bar, I already know there's a 3 cushion billiard table (like a pool table but without pockets-it's a big thing in Holland) so I say to the geordie "fancy a game of pool?" he replies "why aye man" and starts walking over to the table, stops in his tracks and says "f#ckin hell man! there's nay f#ckin hurls!" I nearly wet myself laughing
I live 50 miles south of Tyneside and Northumberland and sometimes I can’t understand a word that is said. I find the accents and dialects of north Tyneside and/or the pit villages in Tyneside and Northumberland particularly broad
