I try to keep my accent (not Irish) under wraps when I speak for the most part, but when I get drunk I tend to let it fly, haha.
It's a mix between Yinzer (Pittsburgh) and Skook (Schuylkill County) ... which makes it the illegitimate love child of two accents which people from outside those areas already have hard enough time understanding. And no one who is a Yinzer or Skook really knows how or why I'm pronouncing my words that way.
Sometimes in meetings and the like I'll accidentally let it drop, which is far more embarrassing than dropping an F-bomb or something because everyone just turns all confused and goes, "WHAT?!"
That coupled with the fact I can't say the -TH at the end of words no matter how hard I try ...
Man I'm a mess. All that from Jaline's post, I didn't even click that link, haha.

"When you are sitting at an Irish bar and someone orders a round of Guinness, you must take a single sip and while the other white people are savoring their drink, you say: “mmmm, I know it sounds cliche, but it really is true. Guinness just tastes better in Ireland.”
This comment will elicit an immediate and powerful response of people agreeing with your valuable insight. This statement also has the additional benefit of humiliating the members of your party who have not been to Ireland (and thus cannot confirm this proclamation). Having not traveled to Ireland and consumed a beer that is widely available in their hometown and throughout the world, they will immediately be perceived as provincial, uncultured, and inferior to you.
It is also strongly encouraged that you memorize the lyrics to “Jump Around.” It will come in handy."
This is fast becoming my favorite blog.
