I moved here in 1998 from South Florida, so no, unfortunately I don't have a Georgian accent (which depends on what county you're from, really… more. A native of Macon, for example, sounds a bit different from a native Athenian). What I like about the game is that they didn't overdo the "Southerness." Older natives do tend to have heavier accents and use "folky" lingo but the younger generation are pretty homogenized (and again, that also depends on where in GA you're from, major cities or the sticks). Plus, there are a lot of out-of-staters who come to live in Atlanta or attend school in Athens. They could have easily fallen into the trap of making everyone sound like hillbillies right out of the Dukes of Hazzard or Deliverance or something.
It was very surreal when I first played and Lee was revealed as having been a professor at UGA. I never attended but have so many friends who are/were students and professors, and since campus reaches right to … [view original content]
If I may join in here, going back to Germany has great food, I heard that you can get salt flavored chocolate there. Is that true? What other awesome foods like they have there? Sounds VERY interesting.
Btw I agree, people who think Germans are Nazis are downright stupid.
Germans have every reason to be proud of their country, you have a millenial history, you can't just throw it to the bin because of a few dark… more years. Focus on the many centuries of greatness and wonderful cultural achievements, and stop listening to those who blame the Germans of today for WW2, they are idiots and deserve to be treated as such.
Es Lebe Deutschland !

Languages change. Nazi IS a negative term. Nazi comes from national socialist. That's right. But today it means a very specific mind set. You know that one from that small moustached guy? That hated all the jews? And the non-arians? The "national" outweighs the "socialist" by a large margin.
Do you use "Nazi" in any other conext? For simply describing someone who is a socialist with little national priorities? I don't.
Nazi is not a negative term at all. It means national socialist , which can be found everywhere.
People are indeed dumb.
edit: I mean not you, but some ignorant folks.

Yeah, that usage of the term "nazi" (like grammar-nazi and such) doesn't have anything to do with national socialist. That's just derived from the dictatorship part of the actual nazis. So yes nazi is negative term. And doesnt mean national socialist (if you call someone nazi today, that is, historically it does of course mean that). Todays usage focusses more on the dictator-part.
I see your point. Yes, in common use it is indeed negative.
Another topic,
But as national socialism, nazis can be found everywhere too. So marking german people as nazis is the most pathetic thing one can do. The only people who were nazis are the members of the NSDAP.
Many refer to them as nazis, if they see a german soldier, which is wrong.
I didn't really have anything to say, I just spoke my mind.
