I think you're a bit cautious at first, waiting for the other person to impress you with wittiness or amusing stories. Then if they pass the test you open up more and start to share your skewed opinions about the world. You also joke, but only when you think it's a really good one. And the more comfortable you get, the more direct you get, and ask a lot of personal questions and share personal information about yourself.

9s sounds like a news reader!

althom said:

I'd love to sound like Marge....really

retina said:

actually, i start sharing my skewed opinions immediately

LleeLlee said:

so he sounds like he looks??

So what do you guys think I sound/talk like?

Preparing for the worst...

like a cross between a southern azerbaijanian rural accent and mongo-khazak mixed with a low pitch raspy tone

Byron said:

i'm more animated than that

Most people say I sound exactly how they thought I would.

Get your punchlines in now.....

LleeLlee said:

How do you think I sound??...

KebabKing said:

Is that in reference to me?

retina said:

I'm not gonna answer that because you'll be accusing me of 'being on your case' again.....


alright, I'll shut up.....

abierman said:

Thank you.

abierman said:

9s is quick witted and softly spoken!

LleeLlee said:

I take that as a "no".

retina said:

You have a strong Swedish accent, talk very quickly and high pitched. When you get annoyed your voice gets higher and squeakier.

Byron said:

very laid back, deep voice. smooth like honey.

I've heard your voice Byron, you posted a recording of it once, a while ago.

Even tone (slight accent) ….well spoken, calm and with intent or purpose ….u can’t tolerate ramblings and enjoy a good debate with someone of intelligence

LleeLlee said:

Actually, the Swedes I do business with hardly have an accent (Swedes are very good in English, just like the Dutch) but tend to be more introverted and quiet.....(again, I'm not on retina's 'case' )

You're wrong about the accent. I've actually been mistaken for a native speaker on a number of occasions. The accent pops up every now and then though, like when I pronounce the "j"s at the beginning of words as the "y" in "your" in instead of the abrupt "dj" sound.

I do speak quickly when I get excited but otherwise it's relatively slow, I think. And it's definitely not high-pitched. More low and monotonous. I like to talk and usually talk quite a lot, so my steady voice could put you to sleep if you're not interested in what I'm saying.

retina said:

you're way off on that. she has a very strong voice, similar to a news woman, but with an english accent and a couple splashes of sensuality, though she's from Oz. i could listen to her all day.

you're pretty much on point with the rest.

Ocean said:

That's a nice thing to say! I don't want to sound like a prick by opposing your only negative remark, but I actually am quite tolerant of ramblings. At least if they're caused by joy and spontaneity. Since I usually don't speak like that myself I love it when somebody else brings it into the conversation.

retina said:

you were wrong about me! Oh and I make bad jokes too

LleeLlee said:

I know.

So how would you describe your way of speaking, Llee?

retina said:

Like the chef off the muppets

LleeLlee said:

i was right!
