I call my mom "mum" sometimes jokingly. :P But okayy. Haha.

I only say it because I don't like the way mom sounds.

Ahh so you're one of those annoying americans who try desperately hard to be british all the time. Do you also have tea and crumpet parties?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I'm English and i've never had a tea and crumpet party, and neither has anyone i know.

I don't try desperately to be British, I have just had many British influences and something have just rubbed off on me.

Like when they say darling it sounds like 'dolling', I don't know when ever I read the word darling I think of a brit. saying it.

Being a Brit, i hardly say mum, i usually say mam, might just be me though.

I say all posts in a British accent, and have to re-read ones that say 'mom' and 'ass'.

You mean an English accent?

No shit mr smartass.

Well British could mean a Welsh Or Scottish accent is what I meant. British accent doesn't mean English accent. I'm British, but I don't have any sort of English accent.

Also there are loads of different English accents.

Because everyone is either British or American lol.

No, which is why this post is SPECIFICALLY slated towards Americans...so why would any other nationality vote?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

My point is that why target it towards Americans, instead of everyone that isn't British?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Nahh. I just automatically assume the OP is British or Australian.
