J-Dawg has the thickest of all of the Canadian accents I've met, so he's gotta be up there somewhere.

Probably has something to do with the cowboy hat avatar. I picked up a very slight english accent at my cousins wedding.

I'll just say it: Fuckin accents, how do they work?

WHY THE FUCK ARE CANADIANS SO CONTAGIOUS!?!

"Eh" regularly finds it's way into my everyday speech and I am constantly (and deservedly) made fun of for it.

I know, and sometimes I think I should go watch hockey in person, then I think, "why would any American do this?"

Hockey IRL is a total kick. Hockey on TV is agonizing.

It's just so damn useful! I doubt that even Canadians want to be saying it as often as we do, it just works in so many ways.

Holy shit.

Mind blown

I never realized how much I say "eh" until I started hanging out with Americans regularly.

I have a really bad east coast accent when I get drunk, and I have a bunch of words that are just huge tip offs. Anything with a sharp a I really draw out, words like "car" or "bar" I turn into "caaar" or "baaar".
