Get off my lawn!!!

YouPorn and the like should probably follow suit.

I didn't even know they were together.

Bruh. Is Doomsday bringing Mandalorian to life using goddamn Gateway computers???

Dialect quiz nailed me as Boston. How about you guys?

They seem to think I'm from San Francisco.

Wow. Has it been 4 years?! Anyway, my mom bought a new TV (don’t know why) and gave me this one. Happy Christmas? Anyway, there was some “drama” with the sound bar. She’s connecting it through Bluetooth and the new TV wasn’t recognizing the signal. Turns out the sound bar was still paired with this TV. So whatever, I un-paired it and she was able to connect it on her TV, but now, the TV remote doesn’t control the volume. She has to use the sound bar remote. I guess you could program the TV remote to control the sound bar, but who the fuck knows where the manual is 4 years later. I don’t even know what model the TV is that she gave me. Where would one even look that up? Anyway, I’m getting off topic. Sound bars. Crazy, huh? I don’t even have sound bar, so this TV sounds kinda shitty. I guess if Trump gives me money I’ll have to buy a sound bar. Hopefully it doesn’t run into any trouble cause it was previously paired with another TV. Modern technology is so annoying. Remember when you used to plug things in and move on with your life?

TV is mounted on the wall. Not a fun experience poking holes on the wall. I think this place was insulated with asbestos




I’ll look for it. Thanks.

When he did Northern England vs Southern England, I chuckled and said, “I guess I’m from Southern England.” Then he did New York & Boston vs Philadelphia and I immediately shouted, “motherfucker.”





What a revelation. I’ve never thought of New York and Boston as White Trash in the traditional sense, but goddamn, y’all a bunch of Northern England garbage.

Anyway....

This video is great too:





I like that it breaks down accents by both region AND ethic groups. Although it’s weird they didn’t talk about Asians, Middle Easterners, and heck, even Jewish people. They could have done a whole video on New York alone. They lumped in Italians, Jews, and Puerto Rican’s into one generic New York accent and then had the nerve to say it’s different from Black New York accents. That’s so wildly inaccurate it’s hilarious. Each of those groups have their own particular accent that is then bound together by what we can now refer to as a trashy Northern England accent. And like I said, they then completely ignore Asians and Middle Easterners who also make up a big portion of New York. But maybe they’ll address that in the next video. They focused a lot on England and Africa, but the South, especially Louisiana, is very French. And I don’t know how you talk about Texas and California without doing a deep dive into Mexico and Spain.
