To my shame, there are entire days when I sound exactly like this. I especially despise the rising intonation in the middle of sentences? Like embedded questions? Which practically screams, "Don't take me seriously."

By contrast, and despite Russell Brand's many annoying tics, he's a pleasure to listen to because he's articulate. And that silver-tongued fellow, oh my brothers, is Katy Perry's boyfriend. Check him out in action with Dawn French, one of the creators of Absolutely Fabulous.
