    I think that the regional accents are interesting. It doesn't seem an ugly accent which the man speak, why must they eliminate it? Poor Boston accent :(

    In French, some accents are pretty and others are ugly, but it's interesting. I like the variety.

    At :16….the town's name is "Selfie"? Nice! Bring your smart phone, and if you're a girl, don't forget to shave your arm.

    You can learn all about Selfie in the movie Good Will Hunting -- one of Robin Williams' best.

    I knew he was joking but I (mistakenly, I guess) read yours as serious and was replying to you.
