    On the flip side, I was born and raised in London yet everyone thinks I’m Australian since I spent many years as an admin to an Australian community online and heard Aussies for 10 hours per day. I still can’t shake a bit of an Aussie accent, yet I’ve never been to the place!

      I am an Aussie raised on a considerable about of BBC shows so I have the opposite problem. An Aussie everyone thinks is English.

        Haha that’s brilliant. I apparently have an Adelaide accent.

      If I don’t stop listening to The Chats soon I might be on the same path

        You need to take precautions very quick. Put yourself in the mind of someone who needs to keep himself away from recommendations. Needs privacy. Like, say you’re buying drugs on the Internet, feeling invincible with your VPN… Wait, shit.
