In all seriousness, and I'm not just saying this incase H8kurdt sees it, but I actually think the Liverpudlian accent might be my favourite of all English regional accents. Especially on women. I work alongside a woman from Liverpool and I love listening to her. If she'd only stop stealing my pens whenever my back's turned.

Yeah, but not a 'poor man's michael caine. Michael caine has a (very old fashioned) cockney/London accent and the essex accent is basically a (more modern) cockney accent trying to sound posh but failing miserably.

i meant he sounds like him but not as great. did not mean poverty in a literal way. i meant... the quality of the voice/speech i knew caine was a cockney and how he got his start actually—some director liked his accent. was it for zulu? i cant remember “trying to sound posh” hahaha ive heard that on tv. it’s very annoying. i can’t put my finger on who but i will. i don’t mean TOWIE characters.. someone more famous... |

You won't hear many Essex accents outside episodes of Towie. Although any interview with Depeche Mode's Dave Gahan given in the 80s (before he went a bit transatlantic) is 100% essex.

i’ve come to think differently about this whole business lately... and reviewing my position as we speak so, curious to learn what kind of deal you’d support and what you think are the upsides this is not a trap/trick question, so i’ll offer my own vision— yes the european market is a kind of free trade but it’s within a heavily regulated frameork. e.g. “all phone connectors must fall within x specifications”. this might be “good for the environment” but prevents innovation. in my perhaps idealistic view, england would have a better economic shot if it opened up trade BEYOND europe, and had free trade agreements with everyone, or as many nations as possible. in that way you’d have deeper global integration that europe herself. on the other hand, retrenching behind the cliffs of dover would bring about economic stagnation. ireland might be a tough spot but i dont think it’s unsolvable, especially with a more liberalized framework. yes? no? thoughts? your take? |

One of the biggest (amongst many) cons given by leavers was that Britain would have countries running over each other to give trade deals with us. Instead it's been an absolute mess where even Japan don't want to deal with us. Given how much of a mess the negotiations have been it baffles me how people can think we're better off out. I actually can't think of one positive to come out of all this.

Whilst it won't happen (hopefully not anyway) the idea of a no deal happening is just...urgh.
My problem with the negotiations with EU is that there won't be anything in it that will be better than what we have already.

by slowing down the introduction of more advanced connector types? im old enough to remember serial and parallel ports, sata, esata, usb of course, firewire, lightning, thunderbolt?? dvi mini display hdmi usb-c now.... not all ports same fucntion but ports be changing constantly in search of faster/cheaper/better i dont know why the new apple usbc charger is different at the base hahaha. narrow. does not fit a usb-a/b charger. maybe on purpose to block? had to buy an anker adapter to hook up to the old macpro wide usb to usbc anyway, yes i get that it makes trash.... BUT... maybe trash collection could be innovated instead? you gonna end up with a bunch of dead wires regardless, might as well incentivize recycling/recyclability instead of fixing a protocol? think of the children! (lol no, think of future miniatures, eg., watches) — as for the other, seems to me the eu is free within its borders and mildly protectionistic without. i am no expert. but if there are all these “rules” to comply with... could you just trade without them? also no independent trade deal can happen till you leave the eu. right? i was just trying to find out but see no clear answer. anyway i see singapore and the eu have a free trade treaty.. just some rules look like (ofc itks a fucking poster, gonna simplify) http://ec.europa.eu/trade/policy/in-...ore-agreement/ cound england have its own eu treaty post brexit? i mean even after hard brexit. just a trade deal. |
