Accents

I lucked out and didn't get stuck with my mom's Lawrence accent. "What's the Lawrence accent" you say? It's like a retarded Bostonian accent. Lawrence is located about 25 miles north of Boston. The Lawrence accent still has the traditional Bostonian "Cahh, pahhking, bahhgin" nonsense, but it's taken one step further.

Hard R's become V's. For example: Lawvence. Ridiculous is still ridiculous. But you can bet your ass you'll be eating vaw eggs aren't votten. In rare cases, L's become V's as well, turning Lawrence into Vawvence.

My dad says it's the same way down in south Boston, except "much more hideous."

Jam it back in, in the dark.

My mom's accent does that. Milk = Malk.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
