It may or may not sound a bit like 'The suckth shuyhks suckth shuyps suck' Never heard a kiwi use the word 'sheikh' so there is an assumption thrown in there

For some weird reason, the thought of a EA guy having a thick bogan accent is a turn on. So strange, cause I'm the first person to leave the area when I see a bogan approaching a kay away. Yes you've gotta love the bogans. My mates mainly italians and a few lebo's are very bogan sensitive, especially the drunk ones. I have to try and steer them away, because any mention of "wog" and so on, will mean trouble

Sorry for necro-ing the thread but I really needed to express my unrestrained love for the Indian accent, no offence to members from the sub-continent but it's the most hilarious ethnic accent there is. I've been told I have the typical Quebec English accent, when I'm out of the province people find my accent intriguing nevertheless NYers generally guess for some reason, it probably have something to do with the geographical proximity. I don't tense vowels before nasal consonant which is typical of English-speaking Montrealers because of the influence of surrounding French language. For instance we pronounce the word pasta: pa-sta where the vowel is unstressed like the Italians do as opposed to paw-sta most Americans accentuate.
