wow... I be retard
And never have my title been more correct. So, for those of you who don't know, I did an interview for the BBC a while ago. And I saw it today. And, wow... I be retard. Felt that had to be said again. I mean, really, how bad can it be? Well, my English, in which I take some pride that I don't sound like a Norwegian, and get taken for being Scottish more than anything, was bad. Really bad. The kind of bad you mock on YouTube bad. Normally I do devout some minuscule part of my consciousness to avoid garbling words and so on, as I'm wont to do in periods. But apparently trying to focus on that, as well as saying the correct things and being in a garbling period. Not good. The result? I sound like someone had injected my lips with painkilling stuff. Ah, well. My terrible accent to the side, the woman doing the interviewing did say I acted professionally. Coming from the BBC, I'll take it as a good sign. Now, all I need to do is to fix that bastard of an accent...
