    Is this where I put on the true blue Aussie accent? Maybe 1% of our population even speaks anything anywhere remotely similar to Crocodile Dundee or Steve Irwin. No, dingoes do not make a habit of spiriting away babies. Carrying weapons on your person is a distinctly non-Australian thing: we're more likely to just punch you in the face or rip off a thong and slap you to death (and that's the footwear kind of thong fyi).

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    There was this British guy in my line producing class in college who would talk about nothing just to hear the sound of his voice. He had beautiful blue eyes and luxurious dark curls...maybe I should find him on facebook.

    One of my favorite customers is a proper British mum. I love her accent though. Super "Queen's English" as it was called earlier, so I suppose it's fair to say I fall into the category of "all Americans love a proper English accent" or whatever that mess was.

    I also appreciate a Scottish accent so long as it's legible! :3

    And Aussie girls are instantly more attractive most of the times they open their mouths. Not always though. West country is... less desirable.

    What's that? I can't hear you over your commoner accent.

    Poshest EoFFers going by voice/accent at EoFF are Wishing Star (super old school member), Chaos (old school member) and Ravan (very new member). More so the first two, admittedly, but the way Ravan pronounces Ul'dah and Gridania is amazing.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    You're damn right I cream myself when I speak, but it's not a British thing. It's a Quin thing. Not only do I piss excellence, but I trout magnificence, fart glory, burp wonderment and weep humility and wisdom.

    smurf me, I'm spectacular.
