normal Irish
I concur.
everything's better in Ireland
Meh
i wouldn't go that far
I definitely concur.
Is it true
that you don't pay Uni tuition fees in Ireland?
everything is free in ireland
thanks to the EU.
Now look at them, the ungrateful cunts
basically.
it's like £100 or something. i can't remember. and i didn't go to Uni in ireland.
Yeah....
you pay registration fees of about £350 a year and thats it, could even be less, maybe even per course.
Its why I have 2 degrees hurrah.
But yeah now look at us, if ever the phrase biting the hand that feeds were more appropriate.
my cousin voted no.
i was disgusted. she said she didn't want the EU having too much power. pfffffffffft
I couldn't vote
Just thought that I'd put it out there
Why....
so it could make all those sweeping changes its made for the last 50 years thats fucked everything up so haha.
They'll just do a Nice and force it through in a year. Then they can all go back to worrying about the Poles coming in and stealing their jobs.
They jobs that no one wants to do, cos they're all so big dog now, they need to be earning proper money.
I may be slightly generalising but its the result of conversations with people from home at Glastonbury that really got on my tits.
i love how you're as bitter as me :)
Kinky
Scottish beats Cockney and Geordie
especially Glaswegian
Australian?
Nope nope nope.
whatever
ya flaming drongo.
your
incorrect usage of vowels always makes me smile, you cant x
:)
I don't sound like that!
pyrotikniks
yes you do x
Rubbish
or in your accent roooobish
x
Northern Irish is best
then Glaswegian
Teesside accent
Spanish (because it's funny)
Northern Irish, easily.
You can call anyone a Cunt in Irish and it not seem offensive.
You missed Yorkshire
We pronounce bastard better than anyone.
^
yorkshire accents in general are great.
THANK YE
I hope that's a minority opinion
or the many years I spent wilfully losing my accent were all in vain.
This is true
My friend does a fantastic impression of Sean Bean that goes like this
"My name is Sean Bustad Bean and I've been sent here to supply your Bustad men with these Bustad rifles.....you Bustad."
eh?
but Yorkshire 'bastard' is 'bastad', not 'bustad'.
'Ye big fat bastad' is the funniest thing a yorkshireman can ever say.
Zut alors!
German.

West-Coast American is probably the worst!
I love it when some one welsh
says cunt.
cunt
there, did you enjoy that !
Glaswegian obviously.
slightly biased here
but I like the forceful Mancunian pronunciation of 'fuck' and 'cunt'. As these are the big two obscenities I feel this goes a long way.
Midlands
Which Midlands?
Middle Earth
He means the Shire.
Them hobbits are all about their 'mind your french''
They say things like 'bobbins'' and 'tickle my beard'' as a form of cursing.
east
fuck yeah!
east anglia!
especially suffolk. they can say 'fucking' without any vowel sounds.
glaswegian
fo sure
yorkshire
but i would say that!!!
German surely ?
swearing in German always scares me a bit.
phonetically spell out
a German swear-sentence.
DOO BISST EYE-NUH FOTZUH
Crumbs!
That is scary.
SCH ICE ER!
UWE FUCKS!
KUNTZ!
ICH LIEBE DICK!
My phonetic spelling leaves a lot to be desired.
Arsch und Titten
Best accent for everything
American
Which American?
Joey Tribbiani American?
George W Bush American?
Arnie American?
closer to
Joey Tribbiani
*worst
except voiceovers for blockbuster films
"THIS SUMMER!..."
Glaswegian
it perfectly conveys the aggression of swear words.
Also, it's also the one accent that pronounces swear words correctly, instead of "fookin'" or "fahkin'" or "feckin'". If someone is a fucking cunt then they're a fucking cunt, not a "fookin' coont".
"Also, it's also"?
Fuck.
I totally agree.
Glaswegians have just had more practise at swearing, naturally we have tot be better.
as someone who swears often and uses aggrassive tones i find deeper more gutteral tones
more effective and as thus rolling r's and achs help but has to also be expressive and on occasion incoherent.
thus heavy scottish accent or perhaps german aid in this more so than others. tis trues.
in britian bottle is a verb
only and orginal source.
vast majority of location created words are descriptive derogatory.
ya fuckin wee cunt faced bam, i am planiing on inserting this bottle into your face and fucking the rotting remains you retarded ( insert racial slur ) little shite.
etc.
though in such situations where actions are known prior rather than spontanious tends to just happen and jah.
shame people are mean init?
Glaswegian accents
make anything fun.
In ireland you just send away for a driving license
And they give it to you! Nice.
And the gardaí are usually lovely.
Probably a really posh accent?
West Country FTW!
Scottish
or French.
(Scottish wins any accent debate. I'm not biased at all.)
By Scottish, I mean Glaswegian.
:)
Fuck no!
I was watching something on Channel 4 about Easterhouse and it's charming residents the other night, they had to have subtitles, it was literally impenetrable.
Horrendous accents and awful, awful, awful pockmarked, pasty faced, tracksuit clad people everywhere!
Aye well thats easterhouse!
The rest of us swear (and look) just fucking fine!
Brummie accent
pronounces 'fuck' more like 'fock' and as such makes it sound really harsh and abrasive. It's g-g-g-reat.
