To be fair whenever I hear someone with an accent not mine who speaks English I always consider their accent illegitimate. Not in a xenophobic way, it's just that that's how I talk, and I hear myself talk far more than I hear other people talk, so it just sounds ever so slightly wrong when I hear someone with a British accent or a Spanish accent. Even people with slight Southern accents sound goofy to me. And I don't think that's odd, I just think it's natural and subconscious.

That's different, but he was like "I hate almost everyone with a non American accent". Like WTF?

Over-sensitive fire alarms that go off when I'm boiling water.

Wtf?

What really pisses me off is when people are distrustful of science, then in turn go to pseudoscience to justify their misled beliefs. I know Paul is with me on this one.

Yeah. I took mine down. If I have a fire while sleeping I am ****ed.

Tired of smoke detectors going off while I cook and nothing is burning.
