It's partly because:-

 

1. we speak so quickly - geordie is very rapid

 

2. we still use a lot of dialect words

 

3. Geordie also is highly inflected - lots of emphasis, lots of up-and-downs - like Welsh but on speed

 

and

 

4. we normally talk s**** to strangers

I thought air hosties lost their accent in the rise of being a true global citizen.

Although the underlined rings true

I do know that everyone complements me on the clarity of my English compared to all of my British colleagues. The worst people for my mostly French, German and Spanish colleagues are from the south of England. They complain of mumbling, lack of clarity in pronunciation and merging lots of words into incomprehensible blurs. The two people who were complained about the most were from Kent and Reading. I couldn't comment on scousers as I have never met one at a senior corporate level.

"WYE AYE MAN I TALK HALF ENGLISH HALF SCOTTISH"

Better than speaking half Welsh you scouse bastard. Ask yourself do scousers talk like cunts? You know the answer. I believe 95% of this country would say you do.

I'll say the women love it and the men hate it. I'd rather speak scouse than Geordie. Geordie reminds of fat beer bloke with no top on shouting Wye Aye Man.

Tesco the UKs biggest supermarket and the man in charge a scouser.

That was actually quite funny, you should put that in your act.

[Ayatollah Hermione 13762]

Piece of piss to pull lasses down the country on the back of a Geordie accent alone tbh.

Tescos may well be Britain's largest supermarket but with profits of merely 2bn, a Market cap of about 30bn, it is in the lower leagues of the corporate world. Anyway, he left Liverpool as soon as he could as he could never find a job, a job, walk on, walk on etc.

Why lie? Scouse accents remind me why I like the fact I was born human.
