    My trigger reaction to hearing any North American accent is to think cunt.

    This must be a bit jarring at work!

    Indeed...

    Fortunately for me then, my accent has not changed, still a cunt though mind.

    People with unconsciously mimicked 'native' accents never think they have an accent.

    In my humble.

    Not that I've ever (knowingly) heard Muswell's dulcet tones first hand.

    Mus has some American pronunciations but still mostly sounds English.

    I suspect I'm much the same.

    Canadian, Russ. I'd have thought you'd be promoting the difference at every opportunity right now.

    Likewise. You become tired of having to explain things like “water”.

    It's hilarious that you think you haven't picked up any American accent.

    When your last few calls have been from a gun range and a sex convention it’s kind of hard to fake it.. (sic). But nice try. (And yes there are stories there…..)

    I crave dull. Unfortunately I have 24 clients today and being run off my feet. The only time I could get some rest are Sundays and wifey makes sure that we are busy because you know she works from home and cannot amuse herself. Also..perverts.....

    Anyway, my spotify is acting up and is only playing a portion of the 460,000 songs I have saved. That cad.

    Chicago: Deprived.

    Code switching. Apparently I had a “telephone voice” (probably still do) that, as a kid, my parents found faintly hilarious.
    I have no idea I’m doing it.

    Likewise, my wife will point out how I sound different (albeit faintly) when talking to my parents, UK friends, etc.
