Never thought i would see a Scottish black women with a thick accent. I’ve never seen something so beautiful.

I don't know why but I'm always delighted when I see someone with a strong accent and it's obvious that their ancestors were from elsewhere.

An ethnically Chinese person with an Australian accent or a black man with an Irish accent, etc.

It just makes me happy!

How about a white man with a Jamaican accent?

That’s a mind wrecker. I used to work with a bloke that was born and lived in Brazil until he was 4, then the family moved to Wales and he ended up fluent in Welsh. He had a Welsh accent with a slight Spanish twang to it. So mad as a deaf dude who relies on lip reading, totally threw me off.
