Manchester!!!

The people interviewing him are giving me the boke. Had to turn it off after 2 minutes. Liam seems to be coming across surprisingly well though, he normally acts like a dickhead.

I think he just looks normal tbh, he doesn't look old & fucked up but he doesn't look pure young either. He looks like your average 39 year old guy with a questionable haircut & a bit of an ianbrownface.
 
I've just realised it comes across as though I fucking hate Liam Gallagher. I actually don't. He's always been a bit of an unashamed prick & doesn't try to hide it, I kind of like that.

I used to fucking love Oasis when I was younger (I still have the hair-cut to prove it haha). I can still remember hearing Definitely Maybe the day it came out, when I was like 9 years old (my dad bought it, he was mad into them for a bit when he first heard them). I felt bad buying Country House & Roll With It at the same time when Blur beat Oasis to number 1 lol.

I must have seen them live at least 10 times, maybe more. I stopped really listening to them after Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants though. Don't have much time for them these days but I still think Definitely Maybe is an outstanding debut album.
 
But he had a good starting point. Kind of reminds me of Robbie Williams. His mind is a bit quicker than the most of them.
 
Robbie Williams once said he was on SSRI antidepressants, because he'd taken too much ecstasy - and said that's what happens. I don't know any MDMA users that had to go on SSRIs. I really don't think Liam is particularly smart, going off his behaviour. Amusing to watch, however.
 
Don't even get me started on my boyfriend and his hero Robbie Williams. We all have our cross to bear.
 
Well, what can you do? How can you control how men are like? I can't help I have better taste than him.
 
I'm a 28 year old Linkin Park fan - what do I know? ;)

Michael Gira says You Know Nothing.

+1 on Lacashire "ooh, 'ecky thump" accents being annoying. Even more annoying is that Coronation Street is literally full of them. That's like having the cast of Eastenders recruited from the arse-end of Rutland. Or somewhere. there have only been about three actors with anything approaching a Manc / Salford accent in Corrie for the past decade.

Worse still, the Vernon / Peter Kay Axis of Evil made the Lancastrian (we call it 'yonner') accent popular on that thing I tend to avoid called television. It's bad enough when they all pile on to Deansgate of a weekend without having to hear it in the comfort of your own home.

Proper (as in working class) Manc accents seem to be undergoing a metamorphosis too (getting more nasal and whiney in general), to the extent that mine is considered 'posh Manc' by some commentators, whereas in reality I'm as posh as a bag of chips eaten with your fork held at a thuggish angle in a particularly dirty gutter. Weird.

Anyway, I came in here to rip the piss out of Treacle and I've digressed. I'll go now.
 
To be honest, I think they sound so different it almost might aswell be American. It doesn't matter so much in someone particularly charming as it gives you something more pleasent to focus on, but otherwise it can really get on my nerves. It's almost confusing how someone could have had the bad taste to develop such an accent?
 
If you visited one of their dreary, godforsaken, wretched mill-town up in "t'hills" you'd understand.

There is no taste around there. Nor any hope. Just brass band contests and Whit Walks to look forward to, antisocial behaviour from bunches of kids who can only see civilisation by going to the top of the nearest moor, and maybe a beating from an overweight, fortysomething biker at the Saturday rock night at the Horse & Fuckwit.

It's a sense of despair I sometimes like to take in like a tourist on short train journeys out there when the weather's good. Worthwhile for having a good smirk and getting regarded with pronounced suspicion in the local pubs.
 
Samhain, "the" Manchester accent seems very hard to pin down for me even after living in the area for many years; there seems to be so many different ones, and that's not even counting all the many accents from the outlying parts of Greater Manchester, like Bolton or Bury etc...

Using famous examples, there is one version of Manc spoken by the Gallagher brothers, another version comes from the likes of Debbie in Shameless, and another from the David Thewlis character in Mike Leigh's Naked, and then you get the more refined Manc accents like Barney from New Order. I'm showing my age with these examples. All totally different, but all definate Manc accents ?

Pretty much bang on, with the addition of the weird 192-route patois spoken exclusively by ver kidz.
 
I know the conversation has moved on from this but I'd just like to add, im from Cambridgeshire. Ely to be more precise.

Didn't the Old Bill do a few operations to close down street dealers a while back?
Dunno if it was the yardie lads that had just moved on from Cambridge to Ely.
I used to score some great brown and white from those guys, their time keeping was fucking terrible though.
 
Yeah it happens now and then, was a load of Vietnamese renting out properties to grow their green that got nicked too. There aint been any white worth a shit round here for a while, not that i know of anyway. I have to travel just for my amphet now as well.
