british accents
When I have to ask for directions and the location is fairly obvious, I’m always embarrassed. To avoid the humiliation, I ask in a British accent so my incompetence is socially accepted.

in the same vain whenever lost in the UK i adopt an american accent to avoid the same shame…
i love this neurosis. i dont have it but i think it’s brilliant.
I can’t stand when people fake accents.
My husband does this, I think its adorable
I do this…but I talk like a white person (I’m black), I do it because I think the person would give me the wrong directions if I didn’t….but of course since I’m also a man, I rarely ask for directions.
I’m going to try this neurosis – I’ve been looking for a new one, and this looks like just the ticket. Thanks!

Do you think the incompetence of someone with a British accent would be acceptable because you think people expect British people to be incompetent or because you live outside Great Britain and would therefore be assumed to be a foreign visitor?
There is no such thing as a british accent.
I guess the person meant British pronunciation – semantics

I’m guessing they meant a generalised ‘teh Queen’ English accent, not Scottish, Welsh, Irish, Brummie, Liverpudian, etc…

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

Check and see if there is a tag or something on the shoe that tells you how to clean them. Probably the best way is to just wash them by hand or you might contact the company and ask them what they say is the best way to clean them other than by hand.
