Larry the Cable Guy will be the perfect Wrestler.
He doesn’t really say “get ‘er done.”
He says, “perhaps we should focus on completing the task before us.”
Lmao
Perhaps.
😀😁😂
🤣🤣
here! here! cherio
next your gonna tell me he's not really a cable guy
Best comment...Hands down...
Tony Dlugi or a tooth fairy dammit
Tony Dlugi next they're gonna say that's not dip in his lip.
his name's not even Larry. it's Dan.
Tony Dlugi You beat me to it!
I was expecting him to have the strongest English accent when I clicked on this video.
Like Hugh Laurie
or House
or Bertie Wooster
ThyChrysanthemum Fish n chips guvna
Gohd dammit Bobby!
Nothing ruined my life more as a kid than realizing Larry the Cable Guy talks just like me.
You had a great childhood! Count your blessings!
Must have been a pretty fucking cozy childhood if thats the worst thing that ever happened to you
Well truthfully his fake accent isn't that different from his natural. It's just thicker and more deeper Louisiana
I don't want to make you want to sign up for therapy, but I thought you should know that Hayden Christensen (Darth Vader) doesn't really sound like James Earl Jones. It's actually a "voice-over." And this might blow your mind, but pro wrestling is fake.
@@Rhapbus1lol don’t hate bro
Having a terrible childhood sucks and isn’t really a brag
Accents still there. He's just not violently Southern
Leatheryfoot exactly I live in South Carolina and most people aren’t that southern 😂😂😂
But he's not from the south lol
Nah that’s midwestern he’s from Nebraska people tend to confuse that with a southern accent though but it’s more of an Iowa/dakotas/Wyoming drawl as Midwest as it gets
@@damianfrederick5825 and some northern folks even have a drawl. If you go to Indiana.. everybody who lives south of Indianapolis sound like they are from Kentucky. It's very distinct. What makes it weird is that they are n.w. of Ohio.. yet the folks in Ohio don't have that drawl.. it's weird lol
He sounds irish to me
yeah no, his normal voice still sounds very southern, just not to the point of exaggeration.
Beverly Huttinger they don't have southern accent though......
TheMike0088 he doesn't sound southern at all if he isn't using the fake accent...
Oh yeah
No yeah....
He sounds a bit Canadian
I swear that his accent is fluxuating even when he's not intentionally doing an accent.
I before A except after K I am kind of the same way actually
It is
I before A except after K mine is too
It comes from being in many different places, and it also depends on what you are saying.
I before A except after K
I really wish he had a posh English accent.
Game and Scotch. As soon as I saw the title that’s exactly what I thought
no god no
I wish he had a heavy Jamaican accent.
I wish he had a cranky japanese man accent
So annoying.
He looks like every male adult above 40 in Iowa. Lived there 10 years.
Air Espenilla all thanks to incest dating back to the pilgrimage!
How does methamphetamine nuance an accent?
I can attest to this
C caymer wat
C caymer dawg what you black tho? 😂
This is like finding out Santa Claus isn’t real
Hess Video
What do you mean ?
Rey
Hi Ray ✌🏼
I was actually being sarcastic about him implying that Santa isn’t real :)
wait... Santa isnt real?!
@@sp8cey *Wrong!*
You take that back!!
his regular voice still sounds country
MAC VENA at least it's easy to understand you ever hear an accent so thick you rather not talk especially the Scottish or Irish
HERPY DERPEDY
You have a good point. I have traveled a bit, and while I could easily understand those with an Irish accent, I'll admit I couldn't understand the Highland or Northern English of some folks in Britain, but that is likely due to a lack of familiarity with the speech patterns and local dialects.
bigbooda011 he got that southern Tang to it I have the same deal born NY and raised NC
You mean southern?
Rather sound country than a hick
Oh, he still has a southern accent. It's pretty noticeable, too. It's just not comically exaggerated.
He doesn’t have a southern accent
I'm pretty sure Nebraska isn't in the south.
His normal speech doesn't have a southern accent. He definitely has a midwest farm kid dialect. Don't confuse them, not the same.
@@jayss10 it’s just to the point he’s used the accent so much it’s programmed into his lexicon.
nebraskan still have a slight accent similar to southern folks but they don't like to know that because they think their corn infested state is to cultured and intellectual despite being a boring ass state
People don't realize he is an actor.
People know he's actor but they don't know he's using a fake southern accent.
actor?? lol...if you wanna call him that..he's a comedian who tries to act
maddog76 he's an actor. He's been in movies.
Now, is he good? That's debatable.
He's an actor?! Cite your source, please.
Jimboramba he was in Cars 1, 2 and 3 and also starred in Delta Farce (which was a fairly entertaining movie) as well as ToothFairy2.
He's still got twang.
It's just dramatized on stage.
Now he does. If you listen to some of his early stand-up he really didn't. I think he's just done it for so long and knows how jarring it is to fans that he's picked it up somewhat in everyday conversation. He spent most of his early life in Florida. Florida is not usually known for 'twang'.
Eh, not really.
Frantick depends on where in Florida bro cuz a lot of then boys country as hell
719 YunGn he's from Nebraska though
bryce sherffius I think they like to refer to it as a Drawl
Larry the Cable guy is one of those characters that is played so well that it’s hard to accept the guy off the screen. That’s when you know he’s good at his job.
It’s almost like he’s trying to convince us he doesn’t have an accent. But to me he still sounds like a southern dude trying to sound northern.
He is from Nebraska you stupid fucking moron.
Nebraska is quite central, you can have a southern accent, Missouri is right nearby
Space Ghost nobody said he isn’t you fucking mayonnaise bottle
Nebraska is not the south. He is a plains boy, but not southren.
@@spaceghost8995 kinda hostile aren't you buddy
This is freaking me out.
Noe Rodriguez III me too
Noe Rodriguez III me as well I've never heard him without his accent.
Noe Rodriguez III he just melts into each accent
I've lost all respect for you Larry the cable guy
Caden Brown he's still country he just upped the accent for a character. more power to him for playing the character without being insulting.
Everyone has a uncle that looks like him in Kentucky
Sad Taco mmm I live there and you’re not wrong.
Not my uncle, but I know plenty of people that look like that here.
wrong, he IS the unkle that everyone has in kentucky
my dad
I don't. All. My family is here in Australia.
I saw the title of this video in my suggested... there is NO WAY one can scroll past this lol
Cassius Catallo wys
yungkidnf "Larry the Cable Guy Has a Different Accent"
He also doesn’t fix cable.
So you're telling me he IS a cable guy?
@@Bebopopotamus good
His name also isn't larry
Yeah, but based on the Yelp reviews, neither do the actual cable guys in my area. So that one still might be accurate.
You could tell just by the way he pronounced the word "Florida." Having lived for many years in Upstate South Carolina, I most often hear it pronounced "Flah-a-da."
I live in Georgia and can say that it’s pretty rare to find people who speak with an accent as exaggerated as his performing accent, to me his normal accent still sounds quite southern and truthfully it sounds more like someone you might actually meet in here in the south.
I'm from Texas and I totally agree. Although maybe an accent as exaggerated as his may be a little more common here than Georgia, but not by much.
What part of Georgia??? Cause around my area and the ones we visit it isn't uncommon....
I'm from Georgia as well and you are very right.
@@MaecyMFerguson nawf gawgia
@@recs8564 well come on by Cobb, Douglas, and Paulding hun and you'll hear some lol
so it's not really that he's faking it. he's picked up different accents from his different life experiences
Nickpug9 I’m the same way. It comes from living all over this great country
Ryan Miller
I must say the best US accent is southern accents.
That's faking it....😂. Unless its your default accent you're acting.
His natural voice is still southern, just not as deep as his stage character.
handicapitation it's almost Midwest mixed with southern
handicapitation its basically a Kentucky accent. a little bit of that ohio-illinois mixed with a light tough of Tennessee and maybe some Missouri
Well he spent his early childhood in Nebraska, went to high school in Florida, had roommates in college from Texas and Georgia, and worked in Omaha, Kansas City, and Orlando during the first part of his career (thanks, Wikipedia!). So that's not surprising.
His natural voice is NOT southern. He's from Nebraska. He naturally has a midwestern accent and if you watch his work in the 1980s, you hear this much more clearly. He's relaxing his voice more in the interview.
Can confirm, Kentuckian. Sounds like a lot of people around here.
His normal voice still sounds southern its just not as exaggerated as so many have pointed out.. Nebraska isn't really north or south and if he spent time in Georgia and Florida then that makes sense.. I'm a southerner and I always knew his voice was exaggerated during stand up... he's hilarious and very talented
I find the lack of 'Get 'er Done' comments disturbing.
Well, sometimes you just have to get 'er done yourself -- which you did.
Larry stole “Get ‘er Done” from John Travolta.
Let's get er done then
@@stratocasterguy nobody cares
That's 'git 'er done', young man.
“You ever hang out with George Lopez?”
Lol who just hangs out with George Lopez
Fluffy😂
Eddie Van Halen does.
George Lopez has TDS! TRUMP is doing GREAT things for this country so far.
Quite a few people hang out with George Lopez. He’s not a fuckin grace from god or too good to hang out with others because of their financial situations whether they may be good or bad or anything like that, you just think this because your narrow mind has been retrofitted with bullshit information and propaganda and are prone to believe anything you hear whilst not having any sort of credible sources to cite your knowledge on the topic. And he’s an asshole so what? I am too but I’m also polite and well mannered and outspoken, bold and smart to denounce someone’s name because they are an ass is wrong especially when he feels he does it when needed.
@@BenDover-lq8tv I thought I had issues but when I saw your comment I realized I'm just fine
It sounds like his natural accent is Midland South.
Henry Volk sounds like everyone else in the bay area to me
Henry Volk I'm from Pennsylvania and it sounds like he could be from here
True. A lot of people from the lower Midwest have elements of the Midland South accent. A lot of people don't realize there's more than one southern accent and there's more than one midwestern accent
Henry Volk very slight southern accent but that's all
It does and my dad was from Nebraska and moved to north Georgia in the early 60s until he died last year and the combo of the two accents developed into a somewhat midland accent . Funny thing is Dalton Ga where his roommate was from is just 15 minutes down the road from us
This is the sort of actor that does what he does so seamlessly, it's easy to think that he IS his character. Jim Varney was another example of this level of 'linguistic chameleons'.
Boy, I miss him.
What the fuck I've never heard him speak normally.
MetalMichael1332 in his movies and stand ups and his tv show, he does the southern voice.
ruclips.net/video/LgtsWsfPqLU/видео.html
I know it's wierd
And you thought cussing on the Internet for attention didn’t have universal consequences
“You ever hangout with George Lopez” nah most people haven’t Larry
😂
His name is Dan, not Larry
It's just Midwest.
George is pretty outgoing and down to earth is a lot of it.
backlighting on ear hair....
OysterPir8 THIS! I'm totally NOT a metrosexual, just your average dude, but I learned years ago to tweeze that nasty shit! This vid was killing me. SURELY there's a cosmetic crew for this that could have taken a tweezer to these beasts for 90 seconds, lol.
Yes! I was so distracted!
hahaha...my Dad is in his 60s and has the same problem. He says he is near-sighted and can't see the hairs, but it doesnt matter - JUST SHAVE THE EARS REGARDLESS WEEKLY! Come on now!
Such realism
@@yukidaruma6988 I have some long ear hair around my ears and if you use tweezers that would hurt. It's not like eyebrows to pluck where you would barely feel anything.
I believe this is called code switching! Really interesting how some of us do this.
Yes
I very much agree
Yup! It’s code switching. I know I do it all the time since at work I “lose” my Hispanic accent
I've done a lot of online gaming with people from MANY different countries and I tend to code switch. It's awkward when someone thinks I'm making fun of them since it's not intentional, so I'm a bit more aware of it.
i have always mimicked accents of the people im around. i had a friend in junior high that stuttered. my mom was freaking out because i began to stutter. i had a fast talking asian friend and then i began talking fast too
I'm from Wisconsin, and that impression was pretty much spot-on.
Thankfully we speak fluent English in Wisconsin ...
I am too, and I agree.
lmao
I'm from wisconsin and I agree with you
And he mentioned La Crosse!! I wonder if he ever visits anymore.
he has a natural midwest accent
Jimberlin which part of the midwest are you from?
+David3188col Maine ha ha ha
jpratx That's in Iowa, right?
I'm a fifth generation, Scotch-Irish, Missouri Ozarks hillbilly. We all sound like that. We're not Southern, more of a country backwoods accent. I didn't know I had an accent until I went away to college.
Ozark Ed *that moment when people realize you don't have to be from the South to have an accent*
Does he have an unusually hairy right ear?

Plutonium Are you for real? Where did you read that?
Plutonium I don't think that Prilosec OTC is gonna fix that.
Barry Hewitt 😂😂😂😂
I really thought the comment section would be full of people saying "oh yeah, that's how it works for me too". I didn't realise it was so rare to pick up accents quickly. From my perspective it is just natural to speak like those around you.
Same here! I thought it was something everyone did.
SAME
As a cashier sometimes I accidentally start mimicking the accents of customers that come through my line and I have to consciously try to not do it haha
I've experienced the same thing, when I was a preteen I went to Germany to visit my family a lot and I'd end up speaking like my cousin who spoke English with a thick accent even though I was raised in the US. And I didn't even intend to.
Yea same man. Some people never get out and meet different types of folks I guess. :-) Insulated.
My entire life has been a lie...😞
iPenzel and his real name is Dan
Lol
iPenzel I feel ya
Just because you see it on the tv/internet doesn't make it true😂😂😂
iPenzel he is an entertainer, are you not entertained.
my life is one big lie...
Did you also know his name is Dan, not larry?
Calvin Lee His middle name is Lawrence - for which "Larry" is short.
yeah, but he only uses it as a stage name. When he's not on stage, or doing some sort of public appearance, he goes by 'Dan', and that's what his friends and family call him. The name 'Larry' is still just part of his act.
seth shaw same. 😂😂😂
he does the same thing dice does, he uses a character to make money
Next you’re gonna say he’s not really mater
Wow ok he's using his fake accent
Racist White people are pissed that his accent is fake
Almiighty Ant why would people be mad? Do you honestly think people are mad he faked a accent?
Sharon Wade iTs a JoKe ShArOn
DRACO BEATZ Does it....mater?
😂 🤣☺️
Larry's "ear hair" game is becoming legendary
🤣🤣
Hi
LOL! Thank you. I wasn't going to say anything but That one wild hair growing out of his ear had me wanting to hold tweezers up to my screen. :)
@@iam100125 yeah that’s true I agree

As a Canadian, Larry the cable guys non-southern voice sounds pretty southern to me.
it is
Alan McMeekin he is still kind of in character here, watch his stand-up from the 80s and 90s and you'll see that he has a very nasal Midwestern accent unlike anything in this video.
As someone that is actually from the midwest, he definitely sounds southern to me.
As someone who is from Nebraska I can agree lol
Alan McMeekin to me canadians and Americans sound the same
I love how versatile he can be with the accents. It’s incredible
You’re pretty
😂😂 the George Lopez impression
Lol. George Lopez. He's fake too.
jordan valdez he was spot on with that analogy tho
The Kids Guide to the Raspberry Pi how so? I've got to hear this foolishness.
?
I feel like he doesn't hang out with a lot of Mexicans.... just guessing.
I always thought the accent was his normal voice.
This interview made me look different, in a positive way, at Larry/Dan
chris7jakarta hell I did too
Broken Wave I don't think he meant that the way he acts on stage is the real him. I think the comment was meant to say that a lot of people believed the voice we hear from him was his natural voice. But of course he's an Entertainer. He's doing a character.
I know what he meant. The voice is clearly part of the act though.
He must be one of those people that thinks "reality" shows are real.
chris7jakarta Does this mean Mater from cars isn't southern?!?
I actually thought it was his real accent too a few years back when I was a little kid.. I could tell it was exaggerated a little bit but I thought that was really his accent (some people here exaggerate a little too).. I didn't think much of it, since that's the way most people actually talk around here where I live... (Eastern Tennessee).. I thought he was just a typical hillbilly from Georgia or Tn.
I thought everyone knew he exaggerated his accent for his comedy
That's not an exaggeration.. that's a complete invention
Gallian
Evan Wheeler "comedy"
Worked with him YEARS ago and asked him the same question. Didn't bother me at all. Great guy. Had a great time.
comes off humble
He explained code switching without knowing there is a name for it... We all do it subconsciously
Razor Ramon code switching is using two languages in the same sentence or conversation. not picking up an accent that's around you. I'm sure there is a term for it though
I thought this was called "revertigo." Or maybe that just refers to one's character or personality.
This is true, I was backpacking in nz for awhile and made some English friends and kiwi friends after two weeks a few drinks in me and I talked just like them. I literally would try to stop and I couldn't. The brain is so interesting lol.
Not all of us. Only those who have an accent that's deemed uncouth, unsophisticated, stupid, or just stigmatized in some way. Southerners, southern black, New York, Boston, Latin LA, Latin Miami, etc. No way in hell middle-class suburban white people code switch. They don't have to. They rule the world so everyone else has to sound like them in order to have credibility.
I learned it as style shifting or switching "register", those terms are used interchangeably for what he's doing.
He's got a bit of a country accent. Nothing like his stage accent but I would guess he's from the south.
I'm from the south, he doesn't sound southern. He sounds midwestern. Which makes sense, I believe he's originally from Nebraska.
Well people from the north can hear the southern accent in him more easily bc it stands out to us...same as his northern/midwestern accent in his voice would stand out to you.
yeah, he's from Nebraska.
When Southerners realize he's actually mocking them: *BBQ flavored confusion
As a native Texan without an accent, it gave me such joy to know how vulnerable Southern people are to pandering. I too would assume the accent when it was advantageous to do so.
If you grew up in the South you'll notice him slip up once in awhile and throw out a word or syllable that gives him away. I knew he wasn't a real Southerner the first time I saw him, but he's still hilarious and his Southern accent is very good.
Anyone calling him a "liar" or a "fake", keep in mind that until recently the majority of stand-ups were playing some kind of character. George Carlin used to do characters. Rodney Dangerfield, Sam Kinison, Andrew Dice Clay, Roseanne, Steven Wright, Mitch Hedberg, Dennis Leary, etc, etc, etc, were all doing some kind of character. It's NOT unique to Larry The Cable Guy.
Ralphie Cifaretto he just admitted he's a poser :/
For real. People forget it's called entertainment and not real life.
I'd like to believe Emo Phillips is like that all the time
Ralphie Cifaretto no one knows one single name of those you listed🤣
Seth meyers isn't scottish or british. Shrek is a fake, yeah baby.
I love how he's talking about how his southern accent isn't real, while just having a less thick southern accent. You're Southern hoss.
Graham, where the Fuck is your suit
lol killing southerners dreams that thought he spoke like that constantly
Chalky Von Kekian yeah I think I'd like him off stage as a dude, but his character hasn't made me laugh much. More annoying than anything imo
His relevancy hasn't been prevalent for years
bmx7596 who do you think idolized Larry the cable guy for mocking their general area? never had trouble with the guy even though he's technically made a better living than me off making fun of me to entertain complete idiots like you that think he is like us/ an idol to us. Like blackface or a chinaman impression. Same thing goes for those comedians down here who make fun of urban people for how white they are...you know the phones, lack of physical fitness, squeamish, office workers? that's what this is
William Smith idiots like me? did you read my comment? I have never liked the stupid fuck. it is not the fake southern thing that really bothers me his comedy is just so low brow. Fart jokes stopped being funny when I was in about the third grade
I think hes funny but ron white was better!😊
He doesn’t get “all of the South” out of his speech. Really, he talks more like I do-a little bit of South with a little bit of something else. There is nothing wrong with that. I actually feel closer to his persona now.
I had to prepare myself before watching this video
The line about George Lopez is so funny and so accurate and true
Ayy.
I tell you what!
Pretty much what I do. I can speak like whoever I'm speaking to. I've seen other people do it too.
Invincible Extremes Muscle Cars Garage I do it on accident all the fucking time lmao
I’m from the south. He still has a slight southern accent but it’s very mild. He just sounds like a normal guy
Wtf his accent is southern af. I’m from Tennessee, and he sounds like my family.
Dr Acula same
Bob Grey My family owns a farm in Fulton...so country, it’s an hour away from a Walmart. He sounds a lot like them, lol. (A lot less mumbly though, I’ll admit)
@Bob Grey Also East Tennessee here. He ain't the most country, but he's still kinda country
It’s an I-29/I-35 accent. Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma. The KC city folks don’t have it as much, but you get a little bit out of town and it’s just like that.
I'm from them there heels as well get called hillbilly all the time by my wife who is native texan and we live here in texas hour outside Austin and guess my Tennessee accent is purty near strong as the folks here look at me like I just stepped out the crick!
Unless he was in character this whole clip, I didn't notice much of a difference.
It’s called Code Switching. Pretty normal in almost every combination of languages and regions within a language. He’s making money with his comedy; more power to him! 👍🏼
He does have a southern accent, he just turns it up for his stand up to make it funnier
I wouldn’t say he doesn’t have a country accent, it’s just exaggerated when he performs. I think everybody pretty much understands that it’s part of the show
I caught a clip of him doing stand up as Dan Whitney a few years ago and it was quite deflating
I’m from Wisconsin and his Wisconsin accent impression is spot on

This is like an Andrew Dice Clay situation. Someone gets so deep in their stage persona that they end up having to be that character the rest of their life 😂
Good call.
I'm from very near his home in Nebraska, and it's hilarious seeing him just totally look and sound like your average, everyday Nebraskan! His persona is so iconic, he's a whole other person with that accent.
Ya gotta admit, that's talented.
Ok.. as someone from a rural area let me tell ya he DOES have an accent and I hear it throughout the whole video

@@theMatIsLavaVlog hes not bad just so weird
He asks questions so naively. It’s awkward. Check out the John Daly interviews
@@BB-re6nz He's terrible at segues. He is a good interviewer because he asks pertinent questions and listens as Geg said above. But like you said it's just awkward.
Always heard my moms southern accent get thicker when she was on the phone to her sisters. We lived in Michigan, she was born and raised in Charleston SC. I picked up a little of it from her and when I’d go visit down south. It’s a pretty normal thing.
What dimension did we get sucked into?
next thing ya know, gilbert godfried is gonna open his eyes and originally be southern
Squid SQuiddly You are everywhere, holy shit.
He still sounds southern
He does, at times ...

I LOVE THIS GUY!!!!!!!! Hands down one of my favorite comedians.
My grandparents used to live next to Larry in Wisconsin a decade or so ago. Met him a number of times. An absolutely stellar human being
Call me fake if you want. I have 2 accents myself. One psuedo intellect accent, I use in business and phone calls. The other sound like a less exaggerated Larry the Cable guy. If I'm mad, I'm full Larry.
Scott Witkowski That's called code-switching, most people do it. Very different from putting on an accent to do a character
Scott Witkowski I do the same thing, usually when I get angry, I start sounding like Batman and shit without thinking about it. My ex pointed it out to me one day and now I always notice.
Scott Witkowski I do the same. with my work buddies, it's one voice. talking to customers, they get the customer service voice. Normal friends get a whole other voice. That's common.
Scott Witkowski me too, dude! my normal accent is pretty neutral american... but as soon as i get pissed off or emotional, it turns more twangy (like a country singer.)
Me too I sound like Boomhauer when I get pissed off but then other times I sound like I'm reading Shakespeare
So he talks like whoever he’s trying to fit in with basically.
Not much to fit in but some people have a weird adaptive sense when they talk to certain people all the time.
@@mhuh Yeah. weird.
we used to call those kinda ppl scene kids, theyd dress n act just like whoever or wherever they wanted to fit in
I feel like he's just trying to justify the character and not appear like a fraud, but I'm a skeptic
M Huh Exactly! I do the exact same thing.
My life is now ruined.
Dude sameee
Hunter Hancock Dice is not a real person either... sorry.
Dude he still sounds country, just not so exaggerated.
What Daniel/Larry is discussing is called Dialectical shifting and high/low diglossia. There is nothing wrong with it and is quite normal in multicultural settings. Well said.
Who else was like this 😦 the whole time

Larry the cable guy he's a uptown southern guy but at the end we know he doesn't talk like that he's doing it for the entertainment of all of us.
Dude, get the hair on and around your ears trimmed/shaved off.

Antz Uprising he's tomato from cars
I can still hear a southern accent. It's not as heavy as we have in Appalachia, but it's there. My family is all bluegrass musicians. It goes back generations. One thing that shocks people is our accents get heavier when we sing. No idea why. I've heard people tell real southern men that they are using a fake accent to sing. It just is what it is. Obviously Larry exaggerates it for comedic effect.
Is this really news to anyone? We all alter our speech depending on our environment and those around us.
I don't.
Yes it's news to me.
the ones of us who grew up in two places, we addapt our accent to the place we currently are.
I dont. I moved from the white suburbs to the Mexican hood as a kid and people still call me white boi and im 100% Mexican
Most people don't know they do it.
He sounds like David Koechner when he's not speaking with his southern accent. Its like I'm hearing champ from anchorman all over again.
Koechner is from central Missouri, less than a tank of gas away from Larry...makes sense they could sound similar.
I had to stop watching it, cuz Larry without the accent just feels....wrong. Like if Darth Vader had a higher voice. Just....no.
TotalJophes u know tht exists :D
I agree.

Darth Vader DOES have a higher voice.
Really nice guy in person. My dad is the roommate he had from Dalton, Ga.
What’s his name? That is as much an honor as when I got Foxworthy’s autograph from First Mariner Arena “To Cory, keep laughing!” even though he misspelled my name.
People think I'm from Alabama, I picked up an accent somehow while in the Navy. I dunno how the accent is for people from Alabama but I guess it's similar. I'm also asian, so there's that too, ain't really seen much of that myself. I like to use an extra thick accent just to mess with people, I think it's hilarious seeing their reaction.
People say im from alabama though i was born in the same town as all of them. I dont have an accent anymore than them. We are in centrall Illinois.
People say I’m from Alabama probably because I’m from Alabama but I also live in Alabama but was born in Mississippi but live in Alabama but only lived in Mississippi as a baby so I live in Alabama and I’m from Alabama I was raised in Alabama I was born in Mississippi but only stayed there as a baby but I grew up in Alabama and here I sit in Alabama still living in Alabama texting this comment in Alabama
@W Gaston shut your stupid ass up
W Gaston he’s Asian as in his parents are from Asian decent
Regardless of accent, the man is brilliant--period. As an entertainer, he's a genius.
Really... a genius? The man’s a blathering idiot.
@@trickthemartyr No, he's not. He's extremely successful and his humor has a sure intelligence to it. He's wildly popular.
@@AGTsakumis Nothing that you mentioned is evidence of being a genius.
Which part of his humour is brilliant? The fart jokes or the Walmart jokes?
@@trickthemartyr Do you not have anything better to do? Really?! You're a loser. My comment was utterly innocuous and you've made a federal case of it. The fact his act is so authentically Southern and his jokes often have interesting twists to them that speak to that type of demographic, is, indeed, brilliant. No one else has managed to do that with such mammoth success. Simple point. If you don't like him, great. I'm sure lots of people don't like you, either--and I'm certain it exceeds the number that don't like him. He doesn't spend time trolling the net for a fight, while coming across as a woke, social justice bitch. Now, run along and find a job or just join the rest of your ilk and flock off.
@@AGTsakumis Hahaha now I understand why you think this moron is brilliant. Have a nice day.
This has been common knowledge since the Blue Collar Comedy days.
I remember when Larry used to call into our local radio station in Florida. He used to crack us up back then and couldn’t wait for him to call in. He then started crank calling daily and he grew into a celebrity. He’s still absolutely hysterical!
