Everyone knows that NOLA residents speak just like the Waterboy.

An attack on Amy Coney-Barrett is an attack on Trump, so the Left is trying to smear her in any way they can. The problem for them is that this woman is so awesome and so well-qualified for the office that they can’t really find anything of substance to use against her. So instead they accuse her of stupid shite like cultural appropriation because of her accent and racism because she adopted 2 children from Haiti. Her family has to sit there and listen to these idiots try to paint her as a religious wack job, racist, etc. in the end, the Democrats are just pissed because they know there is nothing they can do to stop her confirmation.

If that's her biggest concern. The world must be problem free.

I grew up in the BR area but we went to New Orleans a lot when I was younger and I knew a number of people from there.

It's as if she's too dumb to realize that she's being the exact sort of uncultured bigoted person she wants to hate.

Wait, but isn't Coney Barrett white? And aren't the people with the NY accent white as well? How can that be cultural appropriation? And why would someone choose to appropriate the most unattractive, annoying accent that exists in our country? And also, the frick? There is just so much about that that is completely whacked it's tough to even know where to start.

I've been trying so hard to find a tinge of yattiness in her accent (you know a Metairie girl, who went to Dominican in the late 80s had a good one), and thought she had done a good job of repressing it down fully.

But, now the Rolling Stone finds it.

ACB is the band Zebra. It's great.

She stands in solidarity for the free speech of all Manhattanites and other northeasterners. Your free speech doesn't matter. Only theirs.

This was kind of the dead giveaway she was being sarcastic in the first place. She's just really bad at it. Or genius? She did catch some fish.

She's from New Orleans and now lives in northern Indiana. Her accent is kind of weird.

Stop making fun of her for it.

I think the further she got it’s become sorta a self roast but she is obviously mad.

The rich part is southerners have had “yall” appropriated

Actually, I think the rest of the country thinks that people from NOLA all talk with a cajun accent.
