When you're a non-American on this site...
Also when I watch American vlogs on YouTube, I find most Americans repeat themselves over and over and just don't get to the point. For example, a mother vlogging a trip to the supermarket in her car with her kids:-
"OK so we are on our way to the grocery store right now, um, and it's 10 in the morning, and, um, we are going to do a little grocery shopping, get some groceries, you know like, um, bread, juice, um, bread and juice and, um, potato chips for the kids, oh and candy because they like to have like a candy bar or something, a candy bar each, or chocolate, after we done our grocery shopping, and....."
Uh, just stop going round and round in circles with your joyous American accent in your Walmart stores!! ! ! ! !
I prefer watching England vlogs because it's all like, "hi YouTubers! I am off to Tesco for shopping with my kids, going to buy crisps, milk, bread, oh the kids can have sweets if they be good."
There is nothing wrong with our accents.

We rarely sound joyous in the UK, never when food shopping. Listening to happy sounding people takes some getting used to.

"I'm from the South! Flirting is part of my heritage!"

Sorry, please don't take it personally. But Aspies are always saying they like honesty, so I'm just saying, in an honest manner, what I think when I see American vlogs. But the thing about Americans repeating themselves over or adding extra words into their sentences that aren't needed, is true. Americans don't repeat themselves like that in online posts, but in real life they do.
One time I was watching a YouTube video of an American man ranting about kids in a restaurant, and he said, "I hate it when I go into a restaurant and some woman should have gotten a babysitter for her kid or some guy should have gotten a babysitter for his kid..." I mean, why say both the female and male alternatives into the sentence, instead of just saying, "I hate it when I go into a restaurant and some mother or father should have got a babysitter for their kid"? Americans do have a habit of going all around the houses when speaking, maybe they don't when talking to each other, but they do in vlogs.

It doesn't annoy me at all, in fact I think it sounds kind of warm and relaxing.

I was thinking more Holly Hunter or Juliette Lewis. I haven't seen the GG for a long time and I can now see why a certain user here picked her user name

Yeah Bea Arthur was great as Dorothy.

And once again I apologize if what I said about London accents was offensive.


How is what you said offensive? I didn't find it offensive.

Good, but I already edited my post.

I felt like a hypocrite saying I don't judge how other people speak and then saying something negative about how I think people from London sound. Plus I've never actually met anybody from London I've only heard their accents on TV shows and movies and I bet a lot of it is exaggerated.

At least I'm not throwing in colloquialisms like greeting you all with "Ayup! How's you?" Like I would in real life.
I have to admit that when it comes to the "cockney" accent I really can't understand what most of the words mean. Like in the movie "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street" I think Mrs. Lovett spoke with that kind of accent and often times it was hard for me to understand what she was saying.
The actress Helena Bonham Carter is actually from the UK. I wonder if that was her real accent?

Here in Australia there are people who say "Youse" its you with an se on the end it's even in the dictionary now.
