This is so true. It's clear they somehow see the US as 'cooler' so they want to adopt as much American culture as possible. I don't even understand the rules of American Football and I couldn't understand why the game was even mentioned on the sports news this morning, considering almost no one here cares about it.Pick me people from UK and Ireland (with no ties to the US) who take Monday off work cause they stayed up to watch the Super Bowl
I worked with a gross guy who used to wear American football shirts and with an American accent despite zero ties to the states. So many people on Insta last night staying up for that crap.
Affecting any sort of accent gives me major ick. I was recently watching a video with Andy Ngo on it. To those who don't know him, he's a journalist who was born and raised in Oregon in the USA and moved to the UK a couple of years ago. When he speaks now, he's got a half American/half fake English accent. It's so obviously put on. Someone who is born and raised in a country for 30+ years, doesn't change their accent so dramatically after spending a year or two in another country. I can't bear to watch him as his clearly fake accent makes me cringe.

He must look ludicrous. I bet the sound the sound quality is crap, too.There’s a guy on my train right now and he’s using his office Skype headphones complete with mouth piece to listen to music on his phone

You must think a lot of him, to stay with him though.My boyfriend is a walking ick.
1) he is religious with using hand cream and lip balm
2) he always takes a reusable bag for life to the shop with him (folded up into a near square in his pocket)
3) he gives commentary as he’s driving, e.g. “just going to increase my stopping distance to the car in front because…” constantly.
4) he sits and watched YouTube review videos on watches for hours
5) he earns a shit tonne of money and has a lot of investments, etc. but is the STINGIEST PERSON I KNOW. He had several free Costa drinks on the app and some were close to expiring he’s had them that long. I suggested one Sunday morning we go for a walk into town and use them, just something to do. He immediately began lecturing me on how it’s not sensible to use them and if I want a coffee when we’re out he has a travel mug we can fill with coffee at home and share it between us whilst we’re out . He also literally never treats me to anything, I’ve never had a birthday or Christmas present from him (we’ve been together 3 years).
6) he’s into fantasy football and has his fake little football teams and
7) he shouts at the tv when watching football/F1
8) he has Google home speaker things and when he talks to them he has to say “ok Google, turn my lights on” etc and it makes me want to die. He’s also got it set so when he says “ok Google, good morning” it turns his bedside lamps on and plays the radio

Yes I guess that's fair enough. Still to me that's different than another bill to worry about, like electricity. Anyway don't want to derail the thread any further
Sorry can't resist, don't swallow spit.For me it's gulping really loud whilst swallowing

I’m sure it was when he was doing promo for celebs go dating or some shite, I’ve tried to bleach it from my brain!
