I'm Aussie and I sometimes have trouble understanding. Rarely though.
At the top will be the same place you hang from.

From my little experience with emericans... The laid back americans speak slow and make themselves sound ...umm... stupid? Where as the people from the more populated, "well-known" areas speak really quick and come across as impatient. Which they usually are.

Hey yall, don't be making fun of us Americans and please remember America is not America. We are the United States of AMERICA. There is Canada to the North and Mexico and many other countries to the south.

Thank yall,

I'm "American" so I'm stupid.

<-- Live in Houston, TX so I am impatient and quick.

Are you saying that every person in Houston, all 2 million, are impatient and quick?

Of course not! I was giving fun for the person who believes it.
