Is Birmingham accent bad mockery?
1 comments

It's oddly specific mockery, like Ozzy is England's international representative. I don't know, maybe he is. But I doubt Birmingham even inspired the meme, this is probably a caricature of Dick Van Dyke more than anyone.

To be fair, Brits seem to think New Yorkers go "oi" and they don't really either.
