Here's the clue, ladies - our library is walking distance from Chapman University. We get hot college students all the time, both male and female. The best are the foreign exchange students with hot accents.

Might be cheesy but I love hot guys with accents......

Awww. But Trace Adkins wrote a whole song dedicated to us.

I don't mind the get 'ir done type of accent, as long as its accompanied with a wink and a smile. And someone cute, for that matter.

[MouseWife]

LOL I knew BTD would come back on that one...

Oh yeah, well, if they are charming and cute, uh, well.....who can resist?

Hmm I must be a sucker for accents cause on my list of knew at one time is - South Africa, Germany, Scotland, England, Greece, and of course the get er done rednecks.

I love accents but I do crack up at them, too...

My sister had once some how hooked me up with some guy we met looking for a club down in TJ {my seester, how could she???}. She gave him my number. He called and he kept saying 'I want to pick up you' and I was like 'Well...I don't know if you can but you can try.' This, of course, confused him. But that was mean.

And tell me, what is it with people who give people the right number when you give someone the wrong one????

I, too, was once a sucker for accents until the soccer player..or footballer.. from England.

I once dated a professional soccer player from England (or footballer as they call them!) Sure, he was all cute & smooth and the accent made me swoon....

..until he called me and I had to ask him to repeat himself several times because I had no idea what the hell he was saying. Going out with him was even worse. Not only was language the barrier (he used alot of british slang that I couldn't quite grasp. In the same way that I love reading British tabloids even when I'm not sure what they're saying!), he also yapped on & on about how American football just sucked and there was nothing "super" about the SuperBowl. Excuse much, buddy? Don't be sayin' that to a humongo Cowboys fan!! Then, I had to hear about how the World Series shouldn't be called the World Series and so forth.

I couldn't bear anything beyond a second date. Why? Anybody who refers to me as "you Americans" loses me right there in conversation. Don't generalize me without actually knowing me. The best was when he told me he wanted to "shag me". On the second date! Shag! I had to bite my lip not to burst out in giggles! Honestly, I don't even like that I went out with him to begin with. Talk about poor judgement on my part.

Jolly ol' jerk. But I still love the British & their accents, because unlike him, I won't generalize!

whatter y'all talkin' 'bout? I aint got no accent




(my dad was from TX. one of my aunts actually said that to me...in just that way)

[MouseWife]

LOL That's funny. But of course, no one realizes when they have an accent.
