      What do you think of Skins Asher?
      I like it. I like the humour in it a lot as well.

                  Actually, Minnesota sounds more stereotypically "Canadian" than most Canadians.
                  That's somewhat true, but the MinnesOta O is like a prolonged hard O. The canadian O is an ooo sound (like aboot). We're also not so good at the z sound of pleurals, like "I'm from White Bear Lake, Go Bearsss". Also, we don't say "eh" that much. We say things like "Uff-da", "yaa", "so I sess to him I sess", and "ya know".


                  "So I sess to him I sess 'Uff-da Thor, dat's one hell of a big muskie, ya know?' Then, he sess back to me he sess, 'Oh shurr yaa, I caught it up near da Falls a while back, right after that big storm where Ole lost a tOe, ya know.'"

                    My husband's younger cousins live in Brighton, England and they say 'yeah' in almost every sentence. As far as I can tell it really is the younger generation using it.

                              yeah, at least using 'yeah' in every sentence would be less annoying than working 'like' into every sentence has been.

                                You can see the dancing girl's nipples through her bra in the dance at the beginning though...

                                As far as I can tell they don't have any nudity of the teens, only the adults.
