Going photo questions

They actually mine it behind my house (diatomaceous earth, not Worcestershire sauce lol) so very familiar with it. On still days you can hear the blasting whistle.

I visited the town of Worcester Mass 25 years ago and was immediately corrected on the pronunciation: Woostah! haha

My Mom said warshcloth and another family member said ‘wrench’ for rinse. Had a schoolmate who could NOT say ‘orange’. Oinch.

I just ran outta likes. I like how new englanders say, “how you doing?”
It just sounds different.

Me and my best friend was in Dublin, Ireland for our first ttip out of the USA. This young lady looked at my best friend and she actually daid thus to him in a really thick Northern Scottish accent…”You talk funny.”

I looked at him and did my voice impression of Beavis and Butthead…”She said you talk funny.” I was laughing pretty hard considering His family was from Ireland. I’m straight up 25% English and grew up with with a Grandma literally from England. I have been all over the world and no one has ever said I talk funny. To bad my best friend passed away when he was 30.5 years old as he would get a kick at me growing.

And if a Southerner says, “Bless your heart” aka you are so stupid nothing can fix you. Hahaha

I love the way different people pronounce and use slang according to where they are from.

I rode a skateboard in Germany for a couple years with a friend named Gerhardt who was raised in Australia for 10 years, then San Francisco for about 6, then Germany. The guy had bits from all over in his speech. He was a dang smorgasbord of pronunciation.

No one can pin point where I am from other than they will say the USA. But none can pin point because of the traveling abroad I’ve done. Hell in leas than 5 years I lived in Kentucky, Texas, Cali, Texas, Utah, Cali, Chicago, Nebraska, Missouri, Nebraska, Missouri back to Texas.

Yeah I travel way to much. I’ve picked up a lot of slang and what not. Then add in several foreign languages I know and its a good time all around.

It used to be that Evening News broadcasters would all be from the midwest out as far as Denver. Because their regional accent was palatable to everyone.

Let me teach you to speak with an Irish accent. Repeat after me:

Wheel. Oil. Beef. Hooked.

Now say it all together.

Because the center of the US has a neutral accent out of all that can be found in the US. I learned that in my first college class…Introduction to Linguistics. Another thing is this and you do it without thinking. You can start speaking a regional dialect without you knowing you are doing it. Long as you want to fit it, you will do it. My grandma never once loat her British Accent in 50 years living in the US.

And I despise when they say for example Ohio is Midwestern State when in reality it isn’t. Midwest means its in the West, not East.

I spent a few years in England. Mostly the Midlands (Birmingham & Derby.) I got all of the Queen’s English down but for Liverpool. I still can’t quite understand someone from Liverpool so well.

I had a young girl turn around from the seat in front of me once to ask me (in her Liverpool accent) to help find her “Tiny bottle of ink” on a flight back once. I had no idea what she was asking for her. I barely made out the words so I offered her the pen that was in my shirt pocket. She looked at me like I was really stupid. It turned out she had dropped a bottle of nail polish and was looking for it. :rofl:

Have you heard the accent of the far north of Scotland? I have an excellent ear for dialects. It has served me well with my travels all around the world. :+1:

We ran into a Cannabis shop up on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh back in 2002 and 2003. But it was shut down. They still had a lot if their glass bongs in the shop.

I worked with a guy that was from Aberdeen. I didn’t have too much trouble until he started drinking, and then he may as well had been speaking Chinese. I couldn’t follow at all after a few drinks.

@repins12. 14 days later. Flipped on Sunday and it’s starting to flower. These 2 girls have convinced me to go photo for now on. Will still throw in a auto here and there but these 2 will result in my biggest yeild yet. No idea how much but I am hopefully going to get close to a pound.

Awesome my friend. I plan to keep autos going as well. That was my plan all along. 6 photos in hydro and 4-6 autos in soil and the several that I will grow outdoors. Good luck, I’m not sure how much longer I will be around :+1: :v:

I have two autos right now. I got em free. They are from Barneys. I’m looking forward to them, but there us just something better about being able to decide when to flower, and I’ve always been a risk junky. It’s kinda fun risking a male. You gotta pay attention and it’s all good, if not, wipeout.
