There oughta be a law!
Bluesummers:
For whatever reason, I subconsciously emulate the accent of whoever I'm talking to. This is especially disruptive when I'm talking to someone who has a REALLY strong accent, like from India, etc. I have to consciously retain my Connecticut-speak while I'm conversing. @_@
Thrillho:
I do that too.
BeoPuppy:
Me too. Nearly got beaten up for it by a drunk irishman.
nekowafer:
I don't pick up on accents, but I will pick up on phrases or how certain words are said. When I hung out with my high school friend Nadean all the time, we talked almost exactly like each other.
jwhouk:
Oh, I pick up Southern VERY well. Wife has to nudge me when I'm visiting friends and relatives in Nashville.
