    "Damn shame that is"
    zed types - i'm new to this, was just trying it out
    "Fuck you newb"
    zed types - No fuck you
    "do you want to hear me sing?"
    zed types - why not? hit it
    "lalalala lola la la lola etc etc

    I don't exactly remember the convo, but it was your basic i got technical failure typo thing.


    Quality.

    I have a much better singing voice. True story.

    Maybe I should pretend life is a musical and everything'll be sorted.

    But not Sweeney Todd, you fucking psychopath.

    She said, "My boy, I think someday
    You'll find a way
    To make your natural tendencies pay
    You'll be a dentist
    You have a talent for causin' things pain
    Son, be a dentist

    sort of thing like
    Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum

    My wife also enjoys a proper Irish accent. I've tried numerous times to imitate an Irishman when I've been drinking (usually Bushmills) and she says; I sound like a gay Australian pirate with a hint of the Lucky Charms lad thrown in.

    True story.

    If only that were true, sweetheart.

    If you heard my brogue you'd kick me repeatedly in the teeth.

    But, for me, it would be totally worth it.

    Multi-cultural marital sex ftw.

    I just confused even myself there.

    But I especially like the accent from Northern Irelandishire, and singing songs from my favorite musical would be totally win.

    "Feed me Seymour" would sound awesome.

    I must say the same doesn't go for women from Northern Ireland. I get them on the phone and there is something about the timbre of their voices which sets my eardrum physically rattling and I have to set my phone to "Harpy" to filter out the bad notes.

    I'd cringe if I had an accent like that too
