So after watching a movie with British accents, I start thinking with one. Usually, it's rather snooty. So imagine thing conversation, which appeared on the paper out of nowhere, in snooty British accents, okay?
“Really?”
“I’m afraid so.”
“Are you quite sure?”
“Yes, yes, double checked and all.”
“Triple checked?”
“Costs extra, don’t you know.”
“Yes, yes, of course.”
“I’m sure you’re rather shocked.”
“Well yes, you aren’t told every day, you know.”
“No, no, of course not.”
“Well what am I to do?”
“Hm. That’s a tough answer, you know.”
“I expect so.”
“Yes.”
“First time explaining it?”
“Quite, actually. It’s never come up.”
“No, I expect not.”
“Well what do you think?”
“I feel odd, I suppose.”
“Why don’t you start by saying it out loud?”
“Are you sure?”
“No, but it’s worth a shot, right?”
“I suppose.”
“Go ahead.”
“Look, I don’t think I can.”
“Shouldn’t be too difficult, I don’t think.”
“Look, are you sure I’m, well, common?”
