Accents that bug you the most. on 15:52 - Feb 12 by bob566
I holiday in Kerry every year but the high parts near where the healy raes hold post out towards west cork is dreadful. Have a watch of this and see what you think. I sh** you not. Its borderline deliverance and the hills have eyes stuff going on. Makes us look like a right bunch of yokels. Norfolk has nothing on this lot.
Where's that Bob, Kenmare?

Seems like the only way you can get a job as a comedian these days is to have a heavy regional accent, Der's dat one from liverpooool, the Geordie lass, de bald Oirish one, although I don't know what accent Alan Carr has, sounds like he's got a mouthful of spanners.
You used to have something funny to say to be a comedian, now you just say something in a funny accent.

Essentially he's a cnt obviously
It pains me to say that he's a boring bastard basically. He works for Verizon, the mobile phone company over here. They were responsible for the wifi for the Superbowl - the way he was going on you'd have thought he was embarking on a mission to save all of humanity from the brink of disaster.

Great video. Since moving out here I've really noticed how many differences in accents sometimes glaring sometimes subtle, there is in the UK and Ireland. Australia is massive but to my untrained ear I cant make out much difference in a Brisbane accent and a Perth accent. There is differences in accents here but it seems to have more to do with your social standing than the area you originate from. Bogan or not ...Crim or not seems to be a big yardstick.. Its a big difference back home . The fellas at work cant believe that me and a fellow Pom live only 20 odd miles away from each other but we sound so different ( He's from somewhere near Reading) .And they all just used to shrug and murmur while looking at the floor when my Sunderland mate piped up.. Just to show how mentally diverse our accents are, here is a collection of SOME of the different Accents from my folks home county Donegal. in Ireland.And thats in one County never mind your Belfasts , Dubs , Corks or Kerry's and everywhere else around that wee country..
Love this vid..As a kid I used to wonder why the blacks and the Irish of Shepherd s Bush , Hanwell Greenford and Southall used to get on so well.They both loved a stout , and a bet and they both said 'tree' for ''three''. Maybe it was the old ''no Dogs no Blacks no Irish '' signs that used to be quite visible in post war London. Or maybe they were related without knowing it..

Mr.Allen at 1.15 speaks incredibly like my Grandfather. It's uncanny. That Radharc documentary is famous.
I was going out with a girl once who I hadn't brought home to meet the folks - she was still 'on trial'! I was explaining that, even though my accent was Cork, I had lost a bit of the West lilt. I picked up a book of recollections by elderly West Cork folk and read it in our regional accent to demonstrate. She started laughing, said I sounded West Indian. I explained the link between the two. Even prepared for it as she was, when she made the trip west, she was still mesmerised.

Ladies with Scouse accents, ladies with Glaswegian accents and recently, the Geordie accent in anyone tends to make me want to rip their faces off. Living here in Dubai you'll soon learn to detest the Filipino "sirrr/ madddam English pronunciation too..

I'm surprised it took me so long to get rind to this.
Seconded. Which reminds me...
After the Peace Process started in the mid 90's quite a few journalists from the North came South and their accents started merging with the D4 accents that were until then the mainstay of radio broadcasting in the South.
Now, I like Northern Irish accents, especially - oh, God, yes - on women. Mixed with the D4 accent, though, something terrible was spawned. Since then we have this mangled-vowel torture dominating our radio airwaves.
"Wotch oooouht for a laaawwwwry that's creshed on the raaaahwwwwndabawwwwht'
It's fuggin' hideous. It's like a slow-motion Sloanester with a broken jaw.

I think we all agree ANY accent sounds great on a woman. Scouse..Nasal sniveling drivel on a male. Dirty , sexualised beautiful tones on a female. Brum. Boring duff da da tones on a male. Dirty ,sexualised beautiful tones on a female. I once went out with a nurse from Lurgan Norn Iron. F'ck ,that was the sexiest accent Ive ever heard..
the Nigerian sing song sawtooth configuration accent .
that vulgar thick as FGM offcut , The only way is Essex primate grunt , that uses kardashian american'isms.
the clipped, Binary, hal 9000 perfunctory and sanitised- of- emotion- tones of eastern european females in shops, pubs and my local Prezzo sends me into a Fem Dom sexual frenzy .
