What do you mean, like when you want someone say whether they agree with you or not?

The fact that you find turbans offensive is offensive.

All the dialogue on Skins is pretty realistic. One of the co-writers is only 23 or something but even so they employed a bunch of kids to script edit and make sure there was nothing in there that wasn't how kids that age really speak.

What do you think of Skins Asher? I like it. I like the humour in it a lot as well.

Actually, Minnesota sounds more stereotypically "Canadian" than most Canadians. That's somewhat true, but the MinnesOta O is like a prolonged hard O. The canadian O is an ooo sound (like aboot). We're also not so good at the z sound of pleurals, like "I'm from White Bear Lake, Go Bearsss". Also, we don't say "eh" that much. We say things like "Uff-da", "yaa", "so I sess to him I sess", and "ya know".


"So I sess to him I sess 'Uff-da Thor, dat's one hell of a big muskie, ya know?' Then, he sess back to me he sess, 'Oh shurr yaa, I caught it up near da Falls a while back, right after that big storm where Ole lost a tOe, ya know.'"
