Not from there. But lived there for a year.
I'm still trying to say "knife" and "wife" properly instead of "knoife" and "woife".

You just keep working on that, Eliza.

Get bent, ye demmed eejit. 
I know your head aches; I know you're tired; I know your nerves are as raw as meat in a butcher's window. But think what you're trying to accomplish. Think what you're dealing with. The majesty and grandeur of the English language, it's the greatest possession we have. The noblest thoughts that ever flowed through the hearts of men are contained in its extraordinary, imaginative, and musical mixtures of sounds. And that's what you've set yourself out to conquer, Eliza. And conquer it you will.

Hey, I'm just trying to write what it sounded like. And yes, I seriously had such pronunciation issues when I tried to speak 'correct' English.
Strangely, almost everyone I met mistook me for an American at first.

I was thinking Australian, too. Like, he was all Crocodile Dundee in there or something.

That's probably because of your build.

Where do you think the Scousers' got their accent?
Also Scouse would probably be more like "nighf" and "wighf". If you can imagine such a thing.
A lot of people mentioned My Fair Lady, which is what Family Guy was mimicking, I say Halforums did just fine.

Only LB made a reference. The rest went off of his, thinking My Fair Lady. So he was subtle.
Halforums does not do subtle.

Oy! Watch it, that's my second favourite country you're cussing at, bub!
Besides, outside of the old cities, Poland's a frickin' dump.

"Man this forum used to be about the music, not it's all changing and you don't care about the art. It's that Dave chick, man. SHE'S TEARING THIS BAND APART!"
Or something like that.
I can't keep up with the drama around here. It's like a damned soap opera.
