      The UK accent is actually annoying. There's no difference in the actual language...just some words are used differently. American Broadcast English...( Midwest English) is actually the only proper English and is being taught across the world as a standard for English speaking news hosts and agencies.🇺🇸👍is called American Standard Broadcast.

      First name: Ronald

    When that Versace guy appeared and started with his boring self presentation, I thought thank God you fast forwarded it. But in the end he turned out to be not such a killjoy, and I wish you actually had left his part in the video. Probably the story he told was actually interesting. In fact, he absolutely seemed like the most educated of all the other dudes in the vid (but also props to the ghetto guy for being so cool and funny!). Anyway, great stuff! Thanks for sharing it.

      I really wanted to like that guy because I too am from Baltimore and I always enjoy seeing a fellow Baltimorean made good, but jeez a lou he was pompous!
      At first I thought 'he's just taking the opportunity to promote his film', but it quickly became apparent he just loved the sound of his own voice, even he didn't know what the hell he was on about. Like for real dude? You think you'll know how 21st C British accents and idioms because you grew up in a state that was chartered 400 years ago by a British guy? It got worse when he decided to fabricate the history of peanut butter - unprompted, mind - just so he had an excuse to continue speaking into a microphone. And then of course the cringe name-dropping at the end... I have a sneaking suspicion that he jumped for joy when he saw that Harry Potter question because it gave him a reason to mention that he hung out with Daniel Radcliffe and that he has been to Sundance.
      Sorry to be so harsh. He also came across as a happy and friendly guy with a zest for life and new experiences. But those qualities got lost behind the boasting.
