Gordon, I love your accent! And John's American accent is perfect. He sounds like he's from CA! How can a Swedish guy and I both have the same accent?

Hah, I got a lot of help from watching American movies.

I've heard that TV and movies help a lot of people learn English, but I guess I never really thought about it for accents. Makes sense! You really do sound like a CA dude though.

I didn't know there's a California accent!

You're a great person, and a role model, I'm 100 per cent sure the kids see that, and take from that...it might'nt seem that, but I'm sure they do. You're a beacon on here, and one of the reasons I joined, don't put yourself down, you're a star, and I do mean that.

You are too nice!

I take a lot of pride in being a good role model for all of the kids in my life, and I hope you're right about them getting something positive from being around me. That's one of my life goals actually, to make the lives better of the children I know.

I think I will always be my own worst critic, but I have been trying not to be so hard on myself. It's a tough habit to break. Maybe you guys can throw a frying pan my way if I get too negative!

Haha, I don't think there is, but when I moved to VA everybody went on and on about the CA accent I apparently have. They all said I talk way too fast also. It's just because I have a million thoughts racing through my mind all the time.

We are all our worst crictics, that's a given in life.

You come across as nothing but a great person, on here..on twitter, and I'm more than positive in real life. If I had kids, I would trust them with you...100 per cent. And be proud that I did

That is one of the biggest compliments I can receive. I have always felt honored that parents trust me to take care of their children, because there is nothing more important in this entire world than kids. That means a lot that you said that. And you know what, I would watch your kids for free! How about that?!

And I'm glad I come across as a good person. I try really hard to live a good life and not cause any harm. I have always been the type of person that doesn't care what people think about me and I don't care if people like me or not, but I still try to live the life I think God wants me to. That's basically my code of ethics right there.

Well..as I just said on Twitter,you're a star...I mean that. End of. There's no discussion after that. One in a million

Wow!

Personally I slow down so much when I speak in English.

I have no words for that. We need an emoticon that cries happy tears. The teary ones we have all look sad.

They aren't needed, it shines through on here that you're a great person, that's all that is needed for us

Probably because it's your second language. I could never speak Spanish as fast as I can English.

People in the South speak waaaay slower than the rest of the country. The whole Southern drawl thing. My grandparents are from Arkansas so I was used to it when I moved here, but I had to slow my speech down because some teachers had a hard time understanding me. It's not like I talked that fast even, but I had to adjust my speech a little. Weird stuff!

Esta bien, gracioso es una buena cosa!

Sorry, I don't speak French! (And my Spanish isn't too hot either!)

I don't speak either ... sooooo

My mom's new "friend" as she keeps calling him, may be coming over tonight. This is odd. Hmmm.

In other news, reading over the last couple pages has been hilarious and amazing. I'm sad I missed out on it, but my god this forum kills me, hahahah.

Haha, good! Then you can't critique my mediocre Spanish skills. I used to be pretty good, but I stopped speaking it on a daily basis and forgot a lot. I can still understand it pretty well though!

I'll just nod and agree

Ugh, that does sound awkward. I hope it isn't too weird for you. If it is, just think about Spam and you'll start laughing. I'm sorry I missed the party too! These guys are hilarious!

Thanks, Shannon! I hope so too. We'll see!

Haha, seriously all the gif and voice recordings are so awesome!

Oh my gosh, it's POURING outside right now, with tons of lightning and thunder. I love it!

I know! I was laughing so hard when I went through those couple of pages that I snorted really loud. I'm such a dork!
