As a self-proclaimed anglophile, (I haven't been like, diagnosed or anything), I keep coming across this thing that happens to me. I don't know if it's just my personality or if it's something that Americans who consume massive amounts of culture from across the pond do or what. I don't do this when I watch "The Jersey Shore." Okay that's a terrible example because I've never watched the Jersey Shore. It didn't happen to me when I watched Fargo. But when I watch something where a person has an accent from the UK, my thoughts become like their accent. I wouldn't dare let a peep of it come out of my mouth though. I'm pretty sure that's frowned upon. Although, having a Southern accent, I totally don't mind people trying to do a southern accent at me. So I don't know, maybe it's just the social connotation that's weird.
Here are some people who have accents very different from my own and I thoroughly enjoy watching them:

Pants on fire
I went home this past weekend and stayed a few days and while I was there I discovered that the second season of Upstairs Downstairs is on Prime so I was watching a few episodes and my dad pipes up, "Are you watching that Dalton Abbey?"
Recently, everyone's favorite question for me is, how much longer do you have left? Truthfully, I don't know because I haven't actually calculated how many classes I have left. I should really figure that out. But since I'm a liar, I've been telling people that I have 3 semesters left. Wouldn't that be nice if it were less than that?

Friday. My second favorite F word.
Also, I love that line in the song where he's like "I ain't no hipster, but Girl, I can make your hips stir." I just want to date somebody that's that clever.

I'm about to fully endorse
I've been using this for seems like forever for just basic photo editing and viewing and I just now found out that it batch renames photos! It's the best thing I've discovered all year. I'm trying to organize all my shit so I can find things without having to go one by one and I was thinking I would have to download a whole new program and learn how to use it to batch rename. Turns out I already had what I needed all along.
This site is what I used to figure out how to rename through Irfanview.
I have to admit though, I hate the name of this stupid program because I always misspell it on the first try.
