I've been living in England for six years now. Most times I hardly notice the accents of my family here but every now and then I am reminded of it.
For instance:
Today I was climbing the stairs to my bedroom and overheard the following conversation:
Connor: 'Uggh...Alex! You stink... you are such a TRAMP. You are a disgusting tramp!!!' (This was yelled in tone of voice that oozed such distaste.)
Alex: Laughing his ass off.
Its just so funny to me because I was reminded of how us Canadians might say things such as 'you stink' and then throw in a 'gross' or 'disgusting' but throwing in the 'tramp' was so typically English I love it.
