Is it really sad that my friend and I often speak to each other in faux-Jamacian rasta accents?

YOU FASSYMAN WIT DA CHICHI SEX TRUS!

Andrew, that is the saddest thing a person can do. Or is there anything sadder? I leave the question open, and am ready to be enlightened.

However, to admit to it and then ask if it's sad - now _that_ is somehow rather cool.

The hard lads at my school used to speak a mixture of Jamaican patois and Shakespearean English.

and somehow you relate everything to the metaphor of being trapped in a box

When I had a holiday in Jamaica a couple of years ago the hotel offered lessons in "Jamaican patios". Presumably a lot of builders holidayed there.

Me and my sister still both imitate the accent of this lame french canadian guy we used to know.

― Larcole (Nicole), Friday, 1 August 2003 11:47 (twenty-two years ago)

No worse than putting dropping French words into English sentences. faux...grrr sans...grr

A friend of mine produced a lovely record for a click language (whatever it was I didn't know - *click*kung or something) singer - he has an enormous problem with microphone pop.
