FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
The US has a large number of regional accents, but with the amount people move around here is is not as pronounced as it once was. I am sure even a "normal" American accent is distinctive outside the US, but here it is just useful to tell where a person isn't from.

I rest my case, chicken. Now why dont you run along and go play with the rest of your 10 year old friends.
by who? non-americans? they're probably thinking of the one i mentioned, the southern gentleman/lady accent.
but southern accents differ from state to state. most of them just sound retarded and really similar, but you can notice subtle differences(like north carolinians pronounce a word like "cooler" with the "coo"(like a baby "coo's" really pronounced, so it sounds like "coo-ler").
Coach O would like to talk. Nothing more manly than a deep Cajun accent.

I like Southern accents but it depends on region, there's a different dialect in just about every state. Even within TX, what you hear in DFW is going to be different than elsewhere in the same state.

I did a road trip from Montreal (my home) to Tennessee once. Even in that relatively small stretch of America, I lost track of how many accents I cam across. It's astounding how different people sound as you traverse the country.
There's something like five distinct American accents.
I sometimes adopt a Texan drawl.
As an American, I am shocked at just how many distinct accents there are within Britain. Walk 10 feet in Britain and someone has a drastically different accent.
