God I love that bit.
Pretty much sums up Americanism for me. Take something and call it their own completely ignorant to facts. WE have the accents. But to be fair, The British Isles alone have so many different variations on the language they invented, so its funny for them to be so Aristocratic about how anybody else speaks it.
