It was pretty 'einous. Probably the strongest accent I ever had. How many cockneys was I exposed to? All of...one. I was totally (and pointedly) at a snotty upper-crust school.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

How do I find you? Email, RL name? I'm new to OKC.Not sure. I can tell you my screen name. I was at a loss for a name, and figured, since I work in the tech side of arts, that made me a real 'Renaissance man', so my OKC name is "Renn_Man". Probably not helping any. I'm horrible with describing myself.
As for names. One would think with BC as a name, it wouldn't be a problem. I get called BJ a lot. The only way I could stop one person from calling me that was to ask if it was a Freudian Slip. She turned beat red, and quickly learned my name. My favorite was in grad school, the pizza delivery had my name written down as "BeeCée". One of the reasons I don't like my first name, is because there are no nick names. As a kid, I thought nick names was cool, and Brian only has "Bri", which sounds really dorky. My sister has similar problem with Dawn. My brother has the opposite problem. Richard. Ya, when he was transferred to Virginia, the branch manager introduced him as Dick.
Shir, I've been saying the R the whole time. I think at the F2F when I was handing off the earphones to everyone, I was saying your name wrong. Sorry about that. I guess when you come over, you'll have to train my tongue how to say your name properly.
There was more to Meara, but forgot. Must get back to work. Don't want to. Blargh. All I can do is think about CA. And watching Dexter last night didn't help. It seems they do a lot of filming in Long Beach, CA, where I used to live. I know I have 3 weeks to find out if I made the first cut, but, still not motivating me to work right now.

t crosses fingers that BC ends up back home in CA

Now tagless for your comfort.
Shir, my Israeli neighbor's daughter's name is Chen-li. And I could NEVER pronounce her name correctly. I'm sure she got used to most people using the English hard "CH" sound rather than the Hebrew pronounciation.
Glad to know the correct way to say yours. In case I meet you in person.

Really? I always thought they filmed on location in Florida. How disappointing.

Okay, o_a. Thou shalt know me by my doubly Jossian screen name.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
In the interest of full disclosure, I should mention I was snuggling smonster's linguistic geekiness. Because it's sexy.
