    Have you ever been to the US? Even Brits get “corrected” by Yankees there, and I find that as amusing as it is sad.

      In my experience, only Brits get corrected, and really that’s just a running joke. “Oi cunt, Bo’oh uh wah’ah?”

      Edit: actually that’s not true, we do it to our own too. Ahem, “pahk the cah in hahvahd yard”. See? Funny!

        Americans love poking fun at our different dialects.

        “Ope let me squeeze right past ya there”

        “Y’all just leave that tractor right there”

        “So, like, do you, like, have a favorite, um, restaurant here?”

        And then there’s mobster accents which get even more funny
