      Christo Guichard Australian accents make no sense, as the Boston accent was developed before the Australian, and the Australian accent only came about very recently.

      Bostonians were here first so every accent after the Boston accent is wrong.

    This skit makes me laugh every time I watch it. "I wonder if the director ever asked, 'where do you think your character is from?'" 😂 "847 songs by the Dropkick Murphy's"

    That British actor trying to sound Bostonian is wicked brilliant. Layers are the hahdest accents.
