Do you ever notice your mannerisms or accent or anything changes depending on the crowd you are with?
I'm the same in mannerisms but I have noticed my accent (Texas accent) changes when around people with different accents |

I love my accent. Living in WV all my life I still get people even from WV asking where I'm from!! I've got a different accent than those around me I guess! lol

I tend to talk in a lower tone in large groups of people, I think.
If only the colors were like my dreams. Sorry! Had to make the reference. |

My sister-in-law is from Ireland. A couple years ago about 5 of her family members came to the States for Christmas for two weeks. I found my accent leaning towards theirs after a while, mostly when drinking though, lol

I work for the military, and when I'm around them I stand up straight, talk loud, and to the point.
When I'm with my friends I use slang, and slump over like a sack of potatoes. |
