Oh noes

[Superhobo]

So, today, I was at my girlfriends house. Now, my current girlfriend is from New Zealand and has been here since she was, I think, seven. Now, I've met her step-dad, okay. They both have American accents (she's been over here for a while; still a little bit off). So, today I meet her mother. All's normal, and all that, until I actually heard her speak. It went a little bit like this:
"So, Mrs. Tharper, Danni tells me you're a cook?"
"Well, laddie, I don't think thare's any ta-ruth to a' that, but I haave thrown me steaks on the bah-bie in me time."
(This is me not speaking; holding my laughter back.)
Now, I've got no prejudice against people from Down Under, but that kind of threw me off. And, what with the laughter, the whole of the rest of the night was awkward. So, my problem is this: What do I do to remedy the situation?

[JLBats]

Just smile a lot, I don't know

This is a very bizarre problem.

 

[Sofa]

Um, if its the way she speaks, i wish you luck...its not changing anytime soon.

Remedy? None.

 

[The Spawn]

There is a remedy...

 

[Superhobo]

But she gave me the eye!


The Hobbit eye!

this is what you get for meeting her parents

 

[Kmack]

Are you not understanding her gibberish or do you have a problem with restraining your laughter everytime she opens her mouth?

 

[Superhobo]

It was just so off-putting. I mean, her daughter has a pretty good accent. I've got no problem with hers; but I didn't think it would be THAT New Zealandish.

 

[Mee]

Step 1. Insert fingers into ears.

Step 2. Shout loudly, Lalalalalalalalalal, NOT LISTENING! Lalalalalalalalal

Step 3. Rinse and repeat.(as needed)

Ignore it; think of something that makes you stoic in the face. Zone out or daydream when she talks.

*shrugs*​

and if the real thing don't do the trick
you better make up something quick​

I don't find humor in making fun of the cultures of other people. But that's just me.
