blustockingThey're arrogant and they can't spell. (and no, I'm not talking about the British way of spelling.)
Broad, sweeping generalizations are fun, no?
I love how an entire country gets lumped together and looked upon as stupid jerks just because Dubya's brother fixed a crucial state election. YEAH, we hate him! What the fuck do you want us to do?! Yes, it's true...there was an alarming amount of the population who did vote for him...but ask them if they'd vote for him now? Lots of Americans who voted for Bush, would take it back. And there has been MUCH talk among commentators and the "media" about his mannerisms and how he should not talk off-the-cuff...ever, about how he is embarrassing us. So don't fucking assume you know what America is thinking. *I* don't even know what America is thinking.
Fuck, I was in a good mood too.
I'm so tired and sore from moving...so sore.
And if I see one more dumbass with an American flag behaving like a jerk, I'm going to shove that $20 piece-of-cloth-on-a-stick up his ass. Deep pride is like religon. You figure you can act like a total shithead as long as you "luv yer kuntry" or go to church once a week. Look, I'm bitching about my country as a whole...because I live here.
People are shitheads, no matter what country they're from.

Re: I ran out of room, damn 4000 character limits!
Date: 2001-09-24 12:16 pm (UTC)I honestly don't hear a difference in the way I say 'about' and the way y'all say it, but all my American friend giggle when I say it, so I guess there is a difference.
There is also the theory that it's just me.
Apparently I prounounce things funny. (according to my friends in Western Canada) being from Eastern Canada and raised with British parents makes me pronounce things funny, apparently.
But you are right about the 'ow' sound.
It's pronounced ah-bow-t.
Least thats how I say it.
I've no idea how y'all say it.
But I'll keep the 'ow' sound and give you back your "y'all".
;p
