The accent used in the SNL "Da Bears" sketches is an exaggerated version of this. I'd say it's quite well-known and is what most people would emulate if they were asked to do a Chicago or Milwaukee accent. The same way most people would emulate a Brooklyn accent if asked to talk like a New Yorker.

Congrats, Bloo! What's the background of her name? I don't think I've heard it before.

It's a not uncommon girl's name in the UK, it's the name of a plant. We just both liked it as a name, no special reasons behind it.

Did Gad or someone else write about their Iceland visit?

One of my friends mentioned about visiting and maybe he can get some ideas from that post.

Question: my home internet is according to the test, 1.49 mbps.
a) that's crap, right?
2) it says that the expected range due to *tech speak* is 0.4 to 2. Does that mean that the wires to the house are just **** and there's nothing that can be done about it, or can i ring someone and shout at them or something?

I'm making a dating profile of sorts and under occupation I put professional poker player and under employer I put cognitive bias. Funny? Over the top? Non sensical? Are any women smart enough to actually get it?

I guess you don't stream much (any) HD video?

Around my area and I would assume most of US, low-end data speeds are around 15 mb/s. Your phone on LTE should crush these numbers.
