- radison2, on 10/10/2007, -4/+79So he talks like a spice girl?
- kiwikultist, on 10/10/2007, -1/+59Excellent. Time to get brain surgery so I can speak like Sean Connery
- WiseWeasel, on 10/10/2007, -7/+56So the lesson here is that brain damage causes British accents... explains a lot! : P
- KevenM, on 10/10/2007, -2/+45Waking up with Posh Spice would have made a better headline.
- zerodaysoon, on 10/10/2007, -5/+45keep him at 0
- jmpeagle, on 10/10/2007, -12/+44Bush did 9/11, iPhone is a waste of money, Microsoft ***** rocks the world, P2P networks should be banned, network neutrality is a work of communism, HD-DVD should be able to copyright a hex number, diggtards suck unbuntu's butthole, eventhough you think Bush is an idiot you have to admit invading Iraq made us safer, god bless the TSA
Bush Cheney 2008 FTW - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -13/+33if you want to get dugg down you ask to get dugg up or say this
MAC SUCKS
WINDOWS SUCKS
LINUX SUCKS
Novell SUCKS the problem is that novell really does suck i deal with it on a daily basis at my school district and i hate it - Hoxie, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18I could have sworn it said polish accent on the main page.
- thesoprano, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14What about Hugh Laurie in "House"?
- HunterTV, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14"Do you shee the beasht? Have you got it in your shights?"
"Clear enough, Missh Moneypenny! This should preshent no shignificant problemsh!" - kylesherman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12I thought the article said this whole time that he went into surgery with a New York accent...but the idea that the accent was originally from York doesn't make it seem nearly as unbelievable...
- rullingen, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13Better than your butchered version of the English Language, with any luck he'll start learning how to spell things correctly
- atdigg, on 10/10/2007, -5/+15That's actually interesting, it actually show that the comment system on digg is broken, if people would not read comments with -5 or less nobody would get to -100 or so.
- Satanael, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10It's really an elaborate medical joke that the doctor's played on him that's way over our heads.
- Nudar, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Please. This kid is a digg user and he saw how the Czech guy spoke English and thought he'd pull the same thing.
- bullsfan03, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8HAHA! The day is mine, Trebek!
- whoaohh, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10I don't know if I'd say broken. Sometimes those with -100 diggs are the most fun to read and yell at.
- plingboot, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7There's 100s of regional English accents. Some maybe too subtle for the average foreigner to pick up on, but you'd hear a huge range in just a 150 mile stretch from north west (Liverpool) to NE (Newcastle)
- Bartboy919, on 10/10/2007, -6/+13ALL COMPUTERS SUCK
- shortarabguy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6You've clearly never seen James Bond.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6now if we could only surgically "remind" the lead singer of Green Day that he's from Detroit and not from England, it would be fantastic
- atheinostic, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8jmpeagle wins
- Caps, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Sean: I'll take Famous Titties for 200!
Alex: That's Famous Titles for 200... - ShaunO, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6York, not New York. he went in with an english accent, came out with an english accent. just with longer vowel sounds now.
absolutely nothing at all to do with NYC. - rhylan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Nah, its because you pronounce it wrong as well. Don't forget, you speak ENGLISH, a language invented by the ENGLISH. If you pronounced 'liter' phonetically you would actually be saying something closer to 'litter'.
Trust me, take it from a person with an ENGLISH degree, from ENGLAND.
:D - rocman9, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Isn't Christian Bale from Wales? So, if anything, his American accent is "fake". I think he just kept it up extensively during his promos for Batman so that people wouldn't be turned off by the idea of a foreigner playing the American icon Batman.
Also, not related, but Charlize Theron is a goddess and completely underrated as far as beauties go. - arcooke, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Her accent is sexy.. die.
- joot2112, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5The rain in Spain falls gently on the plain ?
- crushfan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5I think, Bush should never say nuclear anymore..
- FortyCaliber, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6I like Senator Craig.
/bathroom style - bagelpirate, on 10/10/2007, -3/+7If you have it set that way
- SteelFrog, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4The RIAA and MPAA are awesome and protecting our rights.
- xstarsprinklesx, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Christian Bale isn't American, he's Welsh. Or is that what you meant?
- TLAKABM, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5You're right, but he's still getting dugg up and you're getting dugg down.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5I had a concussion a while back and ever since my accent has never been the same, I often break out British from my early years
- Myonosken, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4He was speaking with a british accent already? YORK not new york.
- DocHoliday22, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6Hey this is similar to the guy who woke up speaking perfect English recently placed in Digg.
- oneoverzero, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3This sounds very much like foreign accent syndrome....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_accent_syndrome - 11Heather, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Sorry, Madonna 'tries' desperately hard to sound South East English, but the old lady just comes off sounding pretentious and aspirational. To any Brit her American accent stands out a mile.
Amazing are Mel Gibson hiding his Aussie accent, and Charlese Theron her South African accent, and Christian Bale his American accent. - loganhid, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3ummmmm............no
- Ellsass, on 11/05/2008, -0/+3They're not on the metric system entirely. The EU actually just stopped trying to impose it on the UK -- too much of a bother.
- SteelFrog, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I wake up every morning wishing I wasn't a Quebecker. Does that count?
- Flunk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3No. It just proves that you're a dick.
- SteelFrog, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Really? That's actually a really interesting comment.
What happened exactly? Did you actually notice the change yourself or did someone tell you? - SteelFrog, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2PROPERLY-THREADED REPLIES SUCK
- ronaldinho, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2at first I thought he woke up with Posh SPICE's accent, sorry my bad
- aadnk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2This reminded me of "My Fair Lady" ...
- macguy815, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2So when you're brain damaged you speak like posh... hmm, maybe it's not that he is speaking like posh, but that posh and him both suffer from some sort of similar brain condition...
- adoxtater, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2LINUX IS SOMEWHAT OVERRATED
- ronaldinho, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I disagree WIlson. Even a New York accent is different from a Boston accent here. I'm from Boston so I know, so it depends on not even the country but the region.
