Has anyone else noticed that lots more commercials are being voiced-over by British folks? The ones I hate the most are for Tropicana, which takes something pretty basic (fruit juice) and makes it sultry by way of an accent, drawn-out syllables, and frisky music.
It's weird.
Also, Lane and I watched Sliding Doors last night and agreed that you cannot say "wanker" without a British accent. It sounds stupid.

I love the movie Sliding Doors!
And, I love the pic on your header -- such a cute little future-ring-bearer!
it's just another sign of the downward, socialist spiral. first juice commercials, next they'll be piping those calming little voices into our houses telling us how to discipline our children. :)
should you say 'wanker' at all?
If I had the accent, I would say "wanker" in every sentence, whether it made sense or not. See, it's not about "should" and all about "could." At least, with me.
OK, How is wanker used in a sentence. I think I am in Katherine's camp of it's usage.
Oops, sorry Kathleen, I am in my fifties that should say it all!
