If there is anything you want to shout from the rooftops but dont have a ladder, then this is for YOU! (plus it is a lot safer than climbing on top of a building)

Southern New Yorkers are the best, its a version of English based completely off of insults and put downs. It's really quite beautiful. They are my favorite verbal sparring partners, people in these parts don't get it and usually just want to fight

CJ, everyone has an accent. Just hat you have an accents that is native to where you live so it's not noticed
If you were to move to say ohio, you would definitely be called on it at some point.

It probably isn't hard to find a native speaker, Hollywood wants everything to fit in with their delusions.
Why can't Hollywood find a real southern US accent? And why is the fate of the world always set in LA?(The lamest, most boring, US city, that might also have the lowest, overall, IQ on the planet.)

I think CJ was saying he has the more homogeneous North American accent.

I have been told while travelling that I am accentless. I know this to be false. I speak with a really watered down "Fargo" accent, with some deep Louisianan/Creole in there too (though that comes out rarely).
I found out yesterday, that I get to perform a mime routine at at Project Earth!
Problem is, I have a month to put together and learn my routine, re-develop my character, and re-costume myself.
This will be my first on-stage performance as a mime. Wish me luck!

Yeah I could've cracked a god joke about that if it didn't catch me by surprise that much
Also I GOT ANOTHER PAID GIG! Well 3 if you count my friend paying the difference for faster shipping so I can get my setup in time for his grad party.
Edit: Just foun out that the high paying gig might not happen
but there is still a slim chance!

Made my first contact poi with rope instead of colecord. 25 kN rated marine rope, actually. It's a tactile delight and I recommend it.

Different from regular lamp oil? ultra-pure has minimal impurities the one I got is 99.7% minimum of pure paraffin wax oil. Regular has additives and gives off more fumes and residue.
Clean up was a snap FINALLY!!! , my apartment doesn't stink, it lit better and had a more even flame than K-1, it wasn't all raging loud and shooting fumes upon lighting, it was easier to obtain and store than K-1 and a little went a long way.
An apartment resident's dream! I really hate stinking up the hallways too, don't want to disturb/freak out the neighbors more than I need to!!!

Yesterday was a good day.
Came second place in Stage Challenge Regionals, possible wildcard to nationals. Won an award for excellence for my soundtrack... Saw 150 people wearing the hot pink t-shirts that I designed. Did some last minute camera work for nationwide television. Cleaned up some other awards. Crashed the Deputy Principals house at 12.30am for tea and coffee. Made a bunch of new friends... and had a crapload of fun.

Why don't you want it raging loud? That's my favorite part
Cracked my first high intensity glowsticks. They were only cheapo 15min ones that I got to fit the minimum price of where I got them. But HOLY
THOSE ARE BRIGHT! I can't wait for tomorrow at the grad party to crack the green ultras on the dance floor. She rented a hall with a DJ and all that fun stuff I'm also scheduled doing fire outside
