This example of extreme NT speech. Notice how what they say has very little information value but somehow it isn't that boring considering. Since aspies are the polar opposite of this, we might have a lot to learn about this exaggeration of NT speak. Any other example that anyone else finds is well appreciated.

Seems good English to me. Imagine what you would say about me.

Ha, I forgot how much that kind of blaring voice hurts my ears. "Am I bovvered?"* Yes, I believe so.



* I don't watch the Catherine Tate show, but I had to slip in a reference to one of her recurring skits. :wink:

The accent's a bit strong, they're shouting (when not on the phone), but it's not gibberish. Other than the high volume, it seems normal to me. She excessively uses "I know!" in that so tell me about it tone, however.

:shrug:

I had to listen to it more than once and I still could not understand it. I think I picked up every other word or so: "Fancy...potato...5th floor...human ReSOOOOOUUUURSes!! I dont knoooow!"

What?

The acting was a bit over-the-top.

OK from an NT point of view, that was so funny :lol: :lol: .

Her accent was a bit strong but that is just the part of England she is from. And she was a bit over the top but I know some people like that here in my city.

What is the show that clip is from???????

NT headed speech topic

I have no Idea how NTs understand themselves, but I know they do not talk to me this way, because they know I am not one of them. :D

Great video, Aspie_Chav.

BriNT Coms :roll:

That was weird. I found it mildly amusing in an absurd sort of way.

You mean London and not Balamory. In London the accent is almost always reflects class and where they are on the spectrum. In London not many science intellectuals will have this accent even if they are working class.

I didn't find that funny at all but then again, I never find shows like that funny, just boring. I do wish though that I did or at least understood what makes them funny.
