Soul Strut

My girlfriend's best friend does the fake british accent. She went on some mission to Kenya to save the children or something like that (it consisted of her teaching them how to make paper dolls), she went this year for 6 months and came back a month and a half ago. While she was there she met some wealthy South African who lives in London, and tooled around with him for a few weeks. During those few weeks she somehow shed her life-long Long Island accent and turned into Princess Di. I don't understand how the guy she was running around with wasn't clowning her, but I guess he liked the ass. She returned to Long Island and came on a camping trip with a bunch of us, where she was switching back and forth between accents, at one point inquiring for the bathroom to her brother as "where's the loo". "The what?" "The bathroom". "Oh." He was getting increasingly annoyed with her talking like that, the rest of us were just rolling our eyes once in awhile. Finally we were talking about some type of coffee we were drinking and how good it was, and she pipes up in FULL ACCENT with "Joey (her brother) had some DELIGHTFUL (this was the kicker, it was so obnoxiously faked) and exotic coffee recently, it was some type of Arabian something, something Arabian, oh dear, Joey what was it?" Joey: "It was from a strange and magical land called Folgers, they were probably arabica beans, and when did you become a limey?" I knew a girl who did the same thing after touring with a band from England for two months as their publicist. Another kid I know recorded a song with Pantera and developed a temporary southern accent.
