MyLifeIsAverage

Life is pretty normal today.
The other day I learned that if you say 'beer can' with an English accent, you're saying 'bacon' with a Jamaican accent. Mind blown. MLIA

Why the last sentence? WHY? *Collapses* This was a good story too.

It's sad that I made this my facebook status and a bunch of people actually said, "Mind Blown" or some other variance
 
ryebreadboy Good: 46 Bad: 16 8 months, 3 weeks ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
This really would've been better without "Mind blown". Especially since that's not a sentence. You can just give us the facts, you know. You don't have to add some ridiculous conclusion.

At least she didn't say "Mind. Blown."

It's not too bad, actually. The format of many cliche's, however, a spin on it that doesn't make it entirely awful.
 
Averagenub Good: 16 Bad: 6 8 months, 3 weeks ago Below Average Comment Show/Hide
Sometimes you get badded and you don't get why. Was it because Mind blown isn't an actual sentence or what?

I can deal with the last sentence. But seriously... this person has NEVER heard a proper british accent. I have one. I ought to know.

British... Jamaican..... I'm definitely not following... EDIT: Ah, wait, I get it. I've been saying beer can with my average American accent and wondering why it didn't sound right, but now that I've tried with what my mind would consider a British accent, I get it.

Sometimes your comment asking why you got badded get's badded and you get even more confused. *head spins*

I agree. I think it should have went more like this: The other day I learned that if you say 'beer can' with an English accent, you're saying 'bacon' with a Jamaican accent. My mind is still in one piece. MLIA You know, something along those lines..

Lmao, it's not too bad. I mean, it'd be worse if they had said, "Mind. Blown." Right? :) Not all *that* cliche. Not a bad MLIA overall, I find it pretty amusing.

I'm not sure why you lot are so obsessed with dissing posts with cliches at the end. If you have problems with things like that, why do you go through every single post and comment about how bad you think it is? That's a bit like a tiny step up from spamming: it shows you have no life and it makes people hate you. And if that's the image you want to put across to people, you're doing real great, but you can stop now. We get the message.

Ask her to bring these things with her from the store: Six spoons of fresh snow peas, five thick slabs of blue cheese, and maybe a snack for her brother Bob. We also need a small plastic snake and a big toy frog for the kids. She can scoop these things into three red bags, and we will go meet her Wednesday at the train station."

oh come on, i've known this since secondary school (i'm 24 now). It's quite amusing how Americans think that all British people talk in the same accent too... there's west country, geordie, welsh, jock (that i can't understand half the time), central london, south london, brummie, lancastrian just to mention a few off the top of me head, we all sound very different lol. anywho, the pronunciation is something like 'bee-uh' for beer thanks for the entertaining read :-)

They do not sound the same. Besides, British and Jamaican accents sound *completely* different. Aside from intonation, British would sound like Beyah Cayhn, and Jamaican like bay-cuhn. At least to me.

actually, i'm also british [just north of london], and i have a friend with a jamaican accent, and we found that it actually does aswell... i guess it depends on what type of british accent, coz it doesnt work with, eg, a cockney [as in traditionally east-end-london] accent, or birmingham accent. but my accent isnt stereotypical. i have a friend who does. we always laugh at him.

Have you people ever heard a British accent? This makes no sense. How does it at all resemble a Jamaican accent? I say Beer can and being British i say it in a British accent and it sounds nothing like that. This is very silly.

being from *england* which is what the post actually said (just in case you're welsh) you would know that the accents vary. cockney and liverpool accents are my favourite :D

In this post I learned that if you say 'beacon' with a Jamaican accent, you're saying 'beer can' with an English accent. Mind blown. MLIA

crappy ending, but good story. though it depends what part of england you're from. who would've thought so many accents could exist inside of such a small country?

Okay I don't know how to speak in a British accent but i tried for 15 minutes and I finally got it. And wow, you're right. This made my day.

Either my english accent is awful, or you've never heard a proper Jamaican accent. My next door neighbors are Jamaican, and no matter how many times I say this, it never comes close to their accent.

The other day, my sister quoted this story exactly to me, and passed it off as her own. Grrrrr. By the way, for reference, it's not really an English accent, it's more of a German one.
