Russell Peters Accents Clip

  • 0:03 - 0:09
    Oh man. I'm going to let out a secret about Indian people, for all people here, all people watching, wherever you are
  • 0:09 - 0:13
    Good night India. This is a message to you on behalf of all Indian people.
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    Hope my brown people don't get upset that I am letting out our secret.
  • 0:17 - 0:25
    But just so you guys know, Indian people are fully aware of what their accent sounds like.
  • 0:25 - 0:39
    We don't actually need you. We know exactly what it sounds like.We know it's not the coolest accent in the world you know.
  • 0:39 - 0:46
    You're never going to see two Indian guys in a club standing around going "Hey man, aren't we cool?"
  • 0:46 - 0:54
    "Don't we sound really hip. We're going to meet all the bitches tonight. I'm pimping."
  • 0:54 - 1:04
    That's not going to happen. We know what it sounds like you know.
  • 1:04 - 1:13
    And don't think for one minute that we don't know that you're mocking us when we're not around It's an accent- we're not deaf.
  • 1:13 - 1:17
    Don't think when we walk into Home Depot and go "Hello, I'm looking for paint?"
  • 1:17 - 1:23
    "Yes it is right down that isle over there Sir." (laughs)
  • 1:23 - 1:32
    "Hey Jim, did you hear that guy- he's looking for paint. Paaaaint ( long "a" used to make fun of Indian accent)
  • 1:32 - 1:35
    "Now let's go have a cigarette and talk about this for half an hour".
  • 1:35 - 1:41
    We know your doing it you bastards.
  • 1:41 - 1:46
    But Indian people know what their accent is good and what it's not good for. We know it's limitations.
  • 1:46 - 1:53
    We know its not good for getting laid. It's not going to help you- "Hello baby" (said by Peters with Indian accent)
  • 1:53 - 1:55
    Nothing is gong to happen for you.
  • 1:55 - 1:59
    But you know what the Indian accent is good for- cutting tension.
  • 1:59 - 2:04
    You got a tense situation. Pop in the Indian accent. Tension is gone.
  • 2:04 - 2:27
    Picture a serious courtroom drama. "Your honour, my client would like to plead guilty". Tension is gone.
  • 2:27 - 2:34
    But white people, Let me talk to you for a minute. White Canadian people especially.
  • 2:34 - 2:42
    Canadian white people. When I say Canadian I mean you're Canadian, your parents are Canadian, your grandparents are Canadian- you're really Canadian.
  • 2:42 - 2:48
    Canadian white people- you have an accent! And they are completely oblivious to it.
  • 2:48 - 3:07
    You do. I don't know if you are aware of it Sir? You may not have it- you look like a rich Canadian white guy... you're a minority
  • 3:07 - 3:12
    But Canadians people have an accent. And it is funny when you watch white Canadian people talk, especially white Canadian guys
  • 3:12 - 3:19
    They have this funny ass way of talking. The way they speak they make everything sound like the most matter of fact thing you have ever heard in your life.
  • 3:19 - 3:26
    And when they talk to you it looks like they can't control their head. It looks like they are part bobble head when they say stuff to you.
  • 3:26 - 3:46
    Cause they'll come up to you and go " Jesus Christ. Did you get a load of the jugs on that one?"
  • 3:46 - 3:58
    Hey dude, it's funny to watch. And white people are sitting there going " no we don't have an accent- what are you talking about"
  • 3:58 - 4:04
    I can prove to you white folks that you have an accent. It's a pretty bold statement for a brown man.
  • 4:04 - 4:11
    But I can prove to you. White people- when you swear- you sound like donkeys.
  • 4:11 - 4:36
    You do. Because you'll say stuff like "fuck off" , "bullshit" - hey haw, hey haw
