No way, I can pronounce my "h"s!

Actually, out of all of the weirdos down there, gastro is probably the one I most sound like, eh.

Ah, je compends. I'm not francophone. I do speak French but I am a Quebec Allophone. So I don't pronounce hockey as "ockey" or Ottawa as "Hottawa".

I have long suspected gastro to actually be from Hamilton. This whole southern heritage thing and upstate NY thing is a big front.

See what I get for assuming! I thought that was you talking in a video you posted a while ago and the person filming sounded very 'ow you say...francais.

I think gastro is actually from Timmins. He seems like he would fit in there.

Out of everyone in the TGMBG, the most entertaining accent belongs to Flak.

Well, I can easily fake the accent given that I've lived around it my whole life, so I'll be sure to give it my best.

"Heritage not Hate" is a bumper sticker, not something I'm claiming. Trust me, I have plenty of hate.

It's 16F right now, high of 25F (that's -8C and -4C for you metrics) and ice everywhere. I think I'll stay inside today.
