New Transatlantic Accent

The voice used by vlog celebrities to sound informative and authoritative. A mix of the California raised question-like tone at the end of sentences and the monotonal drone of news and radio professionals. A purposefully polished accent that only exists in blogs and youtube videos.

The name is derived from the old Transatlantic (or Mid-Atlantic) Accent, an accent specifically designed for film, television, and media that blended posh sounding British accent with American pronunciation to create a high class sound. (Known users of the Transatlantic Accent are Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, and early Vincent Price)
Tommy's Neuroscience vlog never really took off so he started using the New Transatlantic Accent. Now he sounds like a dick but he has more than 30,000 followers.

Asian Accent Gang

The best group of friends one person could ever meet. Like everyone in there is just a bunch of crackheads joined together because we're really desperate. This type of friendship consists of daily pranking and fighting over who will get to answer the hardest question even though we couldn't really answer it anyway.

New Jersey accent

Stereotypical accent that is thought to hail from New Jersey.
This is only believed to be the New Jersey accent from those who don't live in/around the state.

Examples of this accent:

Jersey - Joisey
Daughter - dawda/dawter
dog - dawg
coffee - cawfee
water - wawder
talk - tawk
ect.

This accent does exist in people from other areas of the country,

however if you use it in front of someone from Jersey they may secretly hate you.
Person one: Where are you from?
Person two: oh North Jersey.
Person one: So you're from Joisey then?

Person two: ...
Person one: ...
Person two: That's not a New Jersey accent.... Go fuck yourself.
