Un Dorian Gray sin pasado, ni patria ni bandera.
I’m just a guy in the #pnw who likes going on adventures, and playing games with friends.
Three things I love: the Oxford Comma, irony, and missed opportunities.

Same thing happens to me where I’ll start emulating local accents. The result is no one can accurately guess where I’m from, even people from my own country. The general answer is “northern Europe” but not from the country of whomever is guessing. But it’s the same reason… something is up with my accent, but no one is able to place it.
Grew up NEPA, went to school on the main line. Moved away almost 20 years ago, but this brings me back.

Tangentially related, The Office fans jokingly asking if I’d ever been to “Scranton” and then being surprised to learn it was a real place.
