Clean house

I never used to understand the purpose of cleaning the house. My parents would make me dust and vacuum occasionally, especially if someone was coming over. My argument was that (1) we shouldn't jump through hoops to show people we're not dirty, and (2) people don't care anyway. Now that I'm a "grownup", I see the point. I'll jump through hoops to make people think I'm cleaner than I actually am, and yes, people do care. They might say they don't, but they do. I know this because I care when I'm at someone else's house. I notice when people are dirty, and I generally don't like dirty people. It's not because they're dirty, but because they didn't feel the need to take the time to clean up before I came over. #lifestyle

No accent (6)

I'm fully convinced I have no accent. I'm sure that's how everyone feels about their own brand of English, but they're all wrong. I can hear the slightest accent in a person's voice, and I absolutely feel like my version of English is completely free of any of these accents. I grew up in northern New Jersey, but I definitely don't have a New York accent. My parents were from south Jersey, but I don't have a Philly accent. I'm obviously not southern, nor am I midwestern, each of which have their own specific and separate accents. I'm completely accent free. Someone please prove me wrong. #language
