Let's face it, typing words is severely impersonal. I'd prefer to hold a conversation with you guys in person anyday, but it's just not practical. Still, I'm curious. Just what do most of you sound like? Just say some words into your microphone (if you have one) and upload it to someplace like bb.xieke.com -- any place that lets you stream straight from the browser without requiring that you download first. If you don't have any program to record your sound, use Audacity -- it's free, and it comes with some little bells and whistles like the ability to remove background noise (although it takes a bit of tweaking.)

Anyway, to get this started off, here's me.

I was at a loss for what to say. Honest.

I'm too tired to sing. I mix up my rhythm in places and my tone is way too flat, but come on, it's the Beatles!

I drunk some tea.

Happy midnight indeed.

Now go on, make with the pretty speeches. : D

(EDIT: The last two links now work for people like Shadow with crazy computers!)
 
Y'know, you can use stickam on occasion... it's pretty cool. It's basically a free streaming audio and video chat thing.
Really fun. Pop onto my page and we can all have a big chat!

Talking. I was bored.
Even more bored.
Singing.

The mike's not that great, so my voice is a tad distorted, but that's roughly what I sound like.

Also, I've been singing for the last six or seven hours, so I really don't feel like singing as well as I can at the moment.
 
Well, gratheo, you sure sound nothing like I imagined!

And rexxz, those vocals are quite something! I wasn't even aware that you did vocals.

And Miek's voice is terrific, as I have expressed on IRC. :>

Yeah, I expected someone to say that. My voice changes every little while... normally it's much higher than that. In fact, up until two years ago, I was classified as a soprano for vocal choir. ...Yeah.
...And that was AFTER my voice broke.

But yeah, I'd sing for this as well, but right now I'm all tired out.

Anyways, what do YOU sound like?
 
Gratheo, that singing clip made me laugh. Do you have an accent? I can't really tell.

Both Miek and rexxz have smooth voices.

Pfff. rexxz's pretty much kills mine to death. : P

Grath, I love that first quote. It seems very distinguished somehow.

JD, I love the monologue.

(So that's how you say it!)

But you don't get to laugh at the other person's funny voice when you're communicating through type. :3

You can laugh at them for the stupid shit they say instead, which has a lot more merit than shit people can't control.
 
Why does every English person sound like they have the stereotypical accent or is it just because I'm hearing it around American ones it seems more defined.  Everyone speaks like Dizzee Rascal these days.

...Sort of. Honestly, it changes. Normally my voice subtly alters to mimic those around me (just a subconscious thing, I guess), but for some reason, when I'm really mad, I speak in a proper British accent. No idea why.
 
Capn, your voice sounds a whole lot better than I imagined! I don't know whether you should take that as an insult, or a compliment, though. :x

JD, your voice is cool. It's actually pretty much as I has assumed it would sound!
