JigsawTDC 11/19/20 7:55:31 PM #10:	The first time I realized I have an "American accent" was when I was reading the Alex Rider series as a kid (teen British spy who works for M16) and it described a character as having an American accent. Which in retrospect is a super lazy description because the U.S. has tons of regional accents and some of them vary pretty wildly from each other. I imagine the generic "American accent" as that fake mid-Atlantic accent that no one actually has but it's used in older movies and radio broadcasts. <cite>JigsawTDC posted [p:947377166] in do British...
