‘tis the season of final exams.


Today in Publishing Law we had a guest lecturer who spoke about DRM.  She was an American who has been living in the UK for about 20 years or so.  I could not pay attention during most of the lecture because her accent was much too distracting.  She had fully adopted British phrases and the accent was starting to creep in.  Every time she said Amazon, I cringed.  When you’re really listening, there is a big difference in the pronunciation of ‘zon’ with the different accents.

Adding Americans who adopt foreign accents to my “things that annoy me” list.  Don’t ever do it, kids.

Could win an Oscar for best song with those lyrics.
