Y'know what's crazy? I'm 26 years old. By the time I'm my parent's age, granted everything stays on track and I am still in the UK, I'll have been living in the UK longer than the US. I can hardly fathom that idea...

Has this crossed anyone else's minds?

I have that thought too.  I'm only 25 . The fact that one day, I'll have been in the UK longer than the US is crazy to me.

It's kind of a strange yet exciting thought. To think that one day I'll be so "British"...!!

I know a woman here who is a Brit but moved to the USA like, in 1970. She's now in her 60's and she's been in the US longer than the UK and is a dual citizen. Unfortunately, she's lost a lot of her accent. I don't mind developing a British accent and losing this one though  ;D

I'm so excited to get my British passport! I'm so bad at accents, so I think i'll sound midwestern for the rest of my life.
It is so cool though and slightly terrifying.

I have a South Louisiana kind of "Cajun" accent but I wasn't born in the middle of the swamp so I have some "city accent" qualities XD

I've been asked in my hometown before, "Where are you from?" So....I have no idea what I really sound like but I do say things like "Ya'll" LOL
