In all fairness that wasn't a bad shot at our accent considering how strange it actual must be to hear. When I go to the U.S I'm going to soak up as much attention as my accent brings, just for the laughs and banter.
My only decent American accent is a sort of southern American black guy, like Reginald D Hunter. It makes everything quite funny for some reason.
@101Amystar Isn't that the point of the joke? That the janitor is mimicking a stereotypical 'posh' accent? I don't think he genuinely believes this is what English people sound like.
@101Amystar Those are two really bad generalizations. I don't know even one person who thinks anyone from Great Britain speaks in such a posh accent. We just tend to make fun of how ridiculous posh people sound (hence the joke here), and considering the old monarchy/bad movies, we dubbed a posh accent English, even though we don't actually think you all speak that way. (What is the point of saying something offensive and then saying "no offense" if you are aware that you have offended someone?)
only english people from the 50's or something (like my dad) say things like "how perfectly vulgar." and he did say sample wrong and he also said tod wrong.
@nitrodudezoom Of course, the accents are specific to certain areas, and it has been over-exaggerated because that is simply the stereotype of the British. I do agree with you, however. :)
I'm from West SusSEX, told my mate about this and we high fived. In the pub, with a pint of ale and each wearing a monacle. Chocks away, spliffing good show old chap.
I shall now partake in the trend that is using a certain acronym I believe you Yanks so oft proclaim on the interweb and proudly state (if you don't mind, that is):
I shall now partake in the trend that is using a certain acronym I believe you Yanks so oft proclaim on the interweb and proudly state (if you don't mind that is):
I'm from Britain and I can tell you now ... I haven't heard any British person say 'how perfectly vulgar' ever ... unless we're taking the piss out of ourselves! :D
Could someone upload the clip where he says "Gd'evening, govena" and JD continues walking then turns around and the Janitor goes "Oh what's up your bum?" it is a funny scene from this episode.
Yeah, i suggest you come to Essex, sure as hell don't talk like that. If you did you'd be stabbed real quick. Weird how the English have been given such a shit stereotype but if you actually come here you'd probably shit your pants in EAST London.
@iCoostard I've always wondered at the way the British are almost able to tell what neighborhood someone comes from, depending on their accent. I once read a story about a professional piercing/tattoo artist who refused to pierce a girl's nipple because of her accent. She was 18 but he could tell she went to a hoity-toity school and might have a father or other interested party come hit him with a lawsuit. One of those Ruth Rendell mysteries.
@MsLogjam interesting...I'm British, and I've never really thought about it before, but we DO have a lot of different accents. Maybe it's just from living here, but there are subtle differences in accent even between different cities. Liverpool, Manchester, Yorkshire and Newcastle are all in the Northern part of England, and yet each one has a distinguishable accent. I don't know if it's the same everywhere or we're just weird like that though XD
@fairyheli2 I was going to ask the same thing ! I did hear though that a scone is a stale biscuit that wants to be a doughnut. Not sure if that's true !!
The janitor is obviously doing an exaggerated joke accent.
Its a little sad that Americans can appreciate Europeans doing an American accent, but whenever an Americans try a European one people give them crap. It's not like America doesn't have any vocal variety.
Well in all fairness the majority of Americans I've heard doing British sound REALLY fake. IDC that they're doing an accent from a specific part, I just hate it when it sounds like shit bleeding out of my speakers.
ROFL....it's so funny when a lot of americans try to put on a british accent they end up either doing the cockney london accent or a mish mash between australian and the queens posh accent
Ugh I hate the american idea of an English accent. People thought I was either Scottish or Australian because I didn't speak either like Prince Charles or Michael Caine
But does anyone here still have the accent or know any of the old dialect??? apprently i got a a tinge of the first and i know some of the the old dialect eg Hindsideafor (wrong way round) a feel abit swimmy (feel ill)
Well I don't understand what the janitor's saying (at least it sounds veeery funny^^) and I love how the Todd's saying : "One's for buns,one's for sex-part of sussex.CMOON!!^^"
