"Can't you come up with something better than accents? Come on show us up here in the northeast how intelligent you are. "

But seriously...did you even read post #7 that I was responding to?

Do I need to define the word "irony" for you?

Is it really difficult to grasp the concept that there are regional accents everywhere?

Is it so difficult for you to understand that people with regional accents should not belittle those with different regional accents by saying that they 'talk stupid'?

I would think that my point that the New Yorkers (New Yawkers) shouldn't be telling Texans that they talk "freakin' stupid'. And visa versa.

The only people that deserve to have fun poked at them for their regional accents are snobby New Englanders who have no sense of humor.

I understood the irony, I was just pointing out that it is kind of tired to fire back the old; “no your stupid” line.

Making fun of accents is really not funny and it seems that it has been beaten to death on this forum.

I remember years ago someone from down south asked me to say: “Park the car in Harvard Yard”. I fired back, “Are you retarded”.
