    This reminds me of a story someone posted about learning Japanese while playing the Yakuza games, only to be told by a native speaker that while their pronunciation was great, they spoke like a thug/delinquent.

    It makes me wonder if any foreign speakers learned English from Mafia movies and speak with a stereotypical mob accent as a result.
