i wish i was irish

with 2 comments

irishtoday i got to sit in on some lectures from some irish theologians.  it was so cool cause they’re accents were awesome!  they spoke very softly, but with an air of confidence and charisma you couldn’t help but listen to them.  not only that, but they were cool because they explained the Bible in some pretty cool ways and taught us some celtic hymns and i even got to play guitar for a couple of them.

i think the cool thing about accents is that they make you 200% funnier.  you could say a joke in english and it’d be pretty funny, but say the same joke in another accent and it makes it the funniest joke you’ve heard in your life.  or not even jokes, but simple things like, “whar’s me pants?”  an accent makes it so much funnier.

so the irish theologians would share stories about living in ireland.  childhood stories, stories about their families.  and their stories were so funny.  man, something about being a foreigner makes telling stories that much more entertaining.  i don’t have a man-crush or anything like bear grylls.  no bro-mance going on here.  these guys were just really cool.  they were older guys with white hair, bright blue eyes (and i don’t even notice eyes normally), and scarves around their necks.  did i mention they were really cool?  is it too much to ask for a foreign accent?  maybe i should go to another country where they think american accents are really cool.  man, sign me up!
