At a bar after work, playing pool with and chatting up a woman between shots. She asks me "where the fuck are you from dude? One minute you have an English accent, the next minute you're Irish, then you're Australian". I had to explain that it depended which of my three colleagues I'd spoken to last
@kattenbarge.bsky.socialPeople are making fun of AOC for having a slight southern accent while speaking in Memphis but they clearly don’t know the pain of habitually and unconsciously imitating the speaking style of the people around you
