I think I sound too "American" and it embarrasses me sometimes. Especially when I say "sorry". I live in Atlantic Canada, where everyone supposedly sounds Scottish or Irish, but that's just yet another stereotype. But it really annoys me when British people think words like "pants" instead of "trousers" or "elevator" instead of "lift" are exclusively American and therefore "wrong". And Canadians usually only spell "color" or "flavor" with a "u" maybe about half the time, but we want others to think we do all the time and not just British people.
