Am I the only non North American here? After a while I thought I would have stumbled across some british guys, and an odd one from Christchurch or Dusseldorf

Anyways I never actually went about to do an introduction here. Hi I'm Alex and I'm a Hungarian immigrant living in Australia. I like comics, movies and video games

[madripper1]

I am from Canada

[tokenuser]

Hi, I am _____, an Australian living in the US.


Psst - madripper1 ... last time I checked Canada was part of North America :)

[sloppybunny]

Hey, token

How long have you been in the States?

[divadawg9234]

I want you to know... I love each and every one of you and your accents :o

[sloppybunny]

How dissapointed you will be when you hear me talk :( I still have that harsh eastern european twang to my occa :P

[divadawg9234]

How dissapointed you will be when you hear me talk :( I still have that harsh eastern european twang to my occa :P
nope, thats an ok one too! There are only 3 or 5 accents that I don't like, and its because I can't understand a darn word they're saying ;)

[iggystar]

The only accent that turns me off is a deep Southern one.

Other than that it's all good.

how is that not North America?

i am in Tucson, a suburb of Mexico... but still North America.

[tokenuser]

Hey, token

How long have you been in the States?Pretty much 9 years to the day.

So much for "Why don't we move to the US so I can get my PhD then move home?" that my girlfriend (now wife) said one cold winters day in Melbourne :)
The Dromettes will be happy to know that my accent is still Australian - more Hugh Jackman than Steve Irwin, but 100% Australian none the less (and even stronger with the addition of alcohol).

Yes, but sloppy asked if he was the only other non-North American here. As in, someone not on the continent of North America.

:)

Personally, I live in Chicago, a country unto itself; Capital of the World.

[madripper1]

In Canada we want to not be associated with North America because the bad name that Bush has given us.

[tokenuser]

But if you deny who you are, then how can Americans claim to be Canadians when they are in Europe??

BTW - I travel to Canada fairly frequently. Infact, I'll be in Toronto again next week. I am used to the immigration/customs hall at YYZ.

[scousemouse]

??? who's from christchurch????

I'm originally from Surrey just outside London England, but have been living in Canada for 30 years now.

[sloppybunny]

I don't think anybody from Christchurch is posting on these forums on a regular basis.

Madripper, Although I'm quite aware that Canada is a different country to the States but as pop culture/geek culture and general geographical purpose and the fact there's quite a few posting here from there is why I put the two together.

Diva Dawg how are you with scottish accents? I think they are awesome, but I used to flat with this Irish couple and I could only understan every third word they said.

Oh and don't get me started on hindu type indians! Although some are cool ;) I have some indian friends, but some are very difficult.

Seeing as there are like one other Australian here, you Sydney based and going to Supanova this weekend? For the rest it's our answer to San diego Comic con, except it covers the space of what probably is half of the artist alley there. Gary Frank will be there!!

Kowgod, I've been to Chicago to visit my brother and for the comic convention there. Belmont is insane. Nobody speaks english, just polish there.

ooh and first post - love the show and reading the forums...glad to be able to finally post something meself!That just because of all the Aussies in London and Thailand. Once we escape, we tend to travel.

[divadawg9234]

I'm ok with the Scotts... and jus the fact that you use the phrase "flat with" makes me want you ;) and now I shall read every post you write in an accent... jk

[dromeonyourchest]

Hey now, born and raised. Most obnoxious accent ever is the new jersey girl accent.

[iggystar]

Hey now, born and raised. Most obnoxious accent ever is the new jersey girl accent.

Sorry :) I'm sure your Southern accent is quite lovely. I think this thread should include clips so we can hear each other's accents...which is making a light bulb go off about another idea.

Scottish accents...that's it. Scotts in general. Seriously, I'm going to marry a Scott.

[sloppybunny]

I might be telling a bit too much about myself, but to proove a point this is a site to my student film http://20bucksshort.com there's a trailer to my film and a making of a friend put together. Now the mystery to my accent will be revealed and it'll make it easier for divadawg to read my posts :)

Just as an aside on this. I strongly suggest that you listen to the Letter to America Podcast. It's about 2 American's living in Northern Ireland.

I'm from Middlesbrough in the North-East England.

Some people in the south of england think middlesbrough is a dump but its nice and we are getting a digital museum built in the shape of a Space Invader and a Kerplunk hotel.

Plus we are getting a Blue Rubik's cube shaped cinema and a office blocked nicknamed marge Simpson's hair

http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Society/Pix/gallery/2004/07/23/M-2-Blue-Rubiks-Cube.jpg

Also the Middlesbrough and Teesside skyline provided inspiration for the Hades cityscape that opens Blade Runner. So we are cool!

I think Geekness is less common here as we're mainly an outdoor culture due to the weather.

don't worry about the Swedish Chef thing. At least you don't come from a country thats only known for an actor who once wrestled crocodiles in a movie and another guy who really wrestled crocodiles and stingrays (not so well).

[dicknixon]

I'm Scottish! But I don't have one of those accents that require subtitles to understand.

[moshi_what]

No.4 Aussie geek chick here!! I'm more leaning towards the asian geek, but i'm still geek.

Hehe, dont worry. We all know that great beer of yours, and here in Sweden The flying doctors, for some reason, is still shown on weekday afternoons.

[sniperxtreme]

I am yet another hot Aussie :) and I still live in Melbourne, Australia. I too have the less thick Australian accent but still all Oz. :) Oh and I can also do an Irish accent if your into that. ;)

[sloppybunny]

wasn't chopper big in the states? I want you guys to think we're like that! And like mel gibson in mad max!

Baldmonkey, incase you're thinking of fosters, no self respecting Australian drinks that. VB is the cheapest and most common, and in NSW Tooheys is the local beer, and XXXX is queensland I believe. Melbourne bitter for the Vics?

I'm a carlton draught person if I'm broke, Becks, if I have a bit of cash, or anything off the taps in the Belgian Beer Cafe. Duvel is pretty sweet.

I'm in the opinion that the local brew gets the job done, but it ain't special. Moshi_what is a beer expert though. Clarify please :)

Any eastern european geeks? Actually if memory serves me right, all the things that's geeky here, is considered cool there. Jay and Silent Bob are popular in Hungary! If you can afford it, it's very cool to have a videogame console. I know the kids were wowed by my 16bit sega (Megadrive for me genesis to you), especially as in 1993 the comodore 64 and maybe a NES if you were lucky was as good as you'll get. In a nutshell having said items were not going to hinder you getting some sexual action!

[baldmonkey]

I know that no one down under acctually drinks Fosters. However it is always an easy way to get an Aussie worked up.

[sloppybunny]

Just me :p

Actually I used to drink Stella Artois quite a bit until the Belgians told me it's their equivilent to our fosters. Now I drink Beck's and apparantly Germans don't distance themselves from this brand of beer, so it must be good!

BTW I don't have a drivers license, so that's my license to drink!!

If you can get it down there, Starobrno is the shit.
I heard good things about Little Creatures. Or is that a New Zeeland brewery?

I think it's Aussie, they have it at my local.

We actually are quite good with import beer here. The Belgian Beer Cafe and the Lowenbrau restaurant have a great selection of european beer, and some bottle shops like Kemeny's in Bondi have a massive selection of import Alcohol. I know I've found many obscure Hungarian stuff at Kemeny's (Well it's ran by hungarian immigrants), but they have a big Scandinavian, German, Benelux, and mediteranian section too.

Moshi-What took me out to a bar for lunch once where we tasted some beer that had a coffee after taste!

[tokenuser]

I know that no one down under acctually drinks Fosters. However it is always an easy way to get an Aussie worked up.Heeeeeeey. Foster Special Bitter is a good drop ... and most Victorians drink VB (it is VICTORIAN Bitter after all).

[moshi_what]

Fosters..YUK...VB...YUK..XXXX..Would not touch that crap with a 10 foot pole!~

Little Creatures is from Western Australia and I heard that if you ever go to WA head over to their brewery, its the best experience. Matilda Beer Company is also in West. Aust. They have such brews as Beez Neez, Bohemian, Roof Top, Creme (Coffee flavoured beer) etc. Blue Tongue is a big Aussie craft beer, never tried it but. And James Squires is the biggest Aussie Craft beer, along with Coopers. We have man smaller breweries that a worth trying, but now sure what aussie stuff you guys can get in the State. At least you should get Squires. I'd love to try Boston Larger, heard its mad.

If anyone can be bothered, go to the photowhoring thread, check page 43, the first photo of sloppybunny. In the foreground is two aussie beers. The green label one is Coopers (Pale Ale) and the other is James Boags a larger.

I can yak on forever about beer. So I will stop right now. Bunny calls me an alcoholic for drinking so much beer..(I don't). I'm a rare female beer enthusiast which makes good company when I'm working in the bar or having a drink with.;)

[sloppybunny]

Moshi what has a drinking problem :rolleyes:

[satansmagichat]

Moshi what has a drinking problem :rolleyes:

The way I see it, if you're from Australia, Ireland, or pretty much any part of the mainland Europe, you have a drinking problem. In the states we dont have a drinking problem as much as driving home afterwards... God, we're stupid.

[tokenuser]

I'd love to try Boston Larger, heard its mad.Finding Aussies beers in the US is like finding a decent bagel in Australia ... they are out there, but you need to know where to look.

Fosters Lager (blue can) is pretty common, available everywhere - but it is brewed by Molson's out of Canadia. I guess importing it into the US from Canada makes it an export? eh?

Fosters Special Bitter (greenish can) is easy enough to find, but limited quantity (only available in the big 40oz can).

Coopers is available in a lot of specialty import stores like CostPlus WorldMarket (where they also have Bundaberg Ginger Beer .. YAY!!!!), and specialty wine/alcohol places like "Total Wines" or "Beverages and More". I have seen more than just the Cooper Pale Ale in the stores, but the Pale Ale is most common.

Despite drinking more than my fair share of VB, I also drank of lot of Hahn Ice, and Carlton Cold, and loved Redback.

As I like to say - American beer is like having sex in a canoe ... it's ****ing close to water. BUT, they do have some decent microbrews over here - you just need to avoid the companies that sponsor Nascar.

If in the US, visit "The Yardhouse" (its a chain) where they have beer on tap from all around the USA and world (its great :) ).

[sniperxtreme]

At the risk of being disowned from Australia, I don't drink Beer. Actually I hardly drink at all, only on special occasions and then mostly shots, rum and coke, and those fruity girly vodka drinks. Gay or not you have to admit they are tasty.

My Dad swears by Cascade Premium (Tazmanian Beer).

[elfoxio]

Back when I was 17 I used to drink plenty of this

http://gk007a0336.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/white.jpg

It was only £2.57 for 3 litres and at 7.5% your in for a pretty crazy night. Only downside is you may wake up on a bench in the town centre at 10am on a weekday morning with lots of elderly people looking at you disapprovingly. Oh and it tasted like cats pee.

Nowadays I rarely drink but when I do it's a swedish pear cider they have in my local.

Get out!

Actually I'm more of a spirits drinker too. If I'm with Australians the peer pressure gets to me and I'll drink beer, but I'm usually a vodka or whisky drinker with the Hungarians. A cheap alternative if we are super broke in need to be socially obnoxiuos and dangerous, we drink cheap casket redwine with coke!

I had Bud when I was in America, I've had tap water with more flavour before.

I'm in favour of the lady genitelia myself, but damn you're spot on with the girly vodka drinks! It's like getting drunk on sprite! :D Smirnoff Black is strong enough to be almost manly.

BTW I drink on avarage about once a fortnight, and never bymysef (Achem... moshy_what), but when I drink I can be excessive, of to rehab with me......

Tokenuser, your the best! Thanx for the brief intro to US beer. Good to know the States have some good Aussie common beers- Hahn Ice and Carlton Cold.

I "hate" those fizzy chick drinks. They are such a waste of money! I may as well buy a soft drink. No offence, if I see a guy drink that stuff, I know I'm not going near him...lightweight! Hehehe...:D

I used to like Carlton Cold, but now i think it tastes like one of those fizzy chick drinks. Hahn is just a lightweight beer!!

I prefer Carlton Draught because its cheap and good, and Coopers Pale always.

So you're saying it's over between us :'(

Funny story, one of my best friends is this lesbian girl. Lots of fun, we eat icecream and watch bad teen comedy films! Anyway I sometimes hang out with her lesbian crew and I'm allways the most feminine of the bunch. I have no shame.

I drink beer too, but what's wrong with drinking 6 bottles of Smirnoff Black's in 2 hours? I'm still sleazy with the ladies afterwards, except it's a different kind of badsmell I ooze off :)

[sinclairtyler]

Whats wrong with being a lightweight. It just means I get way more drunk for a fraction of the cost. I only started drinking this summer but I have to say that I agree with you on the coolers. I mostly stick to whiskey of the Canadian variety and the only beer I drink tends to be very cheep (LAKER) so naturally it tastes horrible but if i down 3 or 4 I'm well on my way to a happy place.

[tokenuser]

Tokenuser, your the best! Thanx for the brief intro to US beer. Good to know the States have some good Aussie common beers- Hahn Ice and Carlton Cold.I think you miss understood me ... I only find Fosters, Fosters Special, and occassionally Coopers Pale.

I'd kill for a Hahn or Coldie ... but as of now, I am sucking back a Don de Dieu ... a Canadian brew local to Quebec (where I am staying at the moment). Halfway throug the 750ml bottle of 9% alcohol heaven in a bottle ... and feeling a mild buzz kick in on an empty stomache.

I hardly drink at all but when I do I stay away from beer mostly because I have never liked the taste. Soft Drink tastes great so if I can get a buzz on it too I'm all for that. :) And Strangely enough I'm not a lightweight, you would think I would be considering how little I drink but when I drink as much as my friends I always sober up quicker. :D

I work with a cute geek who moved to the US from Canada July 5th. He moved to Canada when he was 16. From Russia. Nick's awesome and I really enjoy spending time with him. And he's got a killer, very interesting accent.

My mom's boyfriend, George, is from Greece, and his accent is so damned heavy that I STILL have trouble understanding him at time, but I love him to the moon and back.

*sigh* Accents are indeed love-worthy....

[ariastar]

you haven't done tech support for a company with MANY employees from India... it is sooo hard to understand them most of the time!

Indian accents are as easy as English to me at this point. And just as plain.

Pretty much 9 years to the day.

So much for "Why don't we move to the US so I can get my PhD then move home?" that my girlfriend (now wife) said one cold winters day in Melbourne :)
