Basically everything. Telling a joke that I love. Showing excitement for something I love. Doing my silly voices; especially my batman and girl voice. Taking my shirt off. And so much more. Damn social anxiety and confidence issues.
Having a friend that randomly speaks like batman (or a girl too, but batman) sounds like a lot of fun!
The batman voice makes me break out in a coughing fit but I guess so haha
Being able to do both a batman and a girl voice is pretty damn cool. Silly voices in general are my jam, I love doing Stitch impressions
I used to be able to do a perfect Stitch impression before my voice dropped. Now I just sound like Herbert the Pervert from Family Guy haha
Somehow, I was only able to do it after my voice dropped. No idea how that works
I envy you
I envy you, for the girl voice
Ha, it just takes practice. You'll get it
I shouldn't complain since I never really tried. So yeah, practice, I guess. Apparently, you need to keep your larynx up high?
The best way I can describe it is by using the back of your tongue to compress the beck of your throat. Kind of like just before you cough. Holding it in that position is how I do the girl voice
Okay, now I just need everyone at home to leave, so I can try it in peace
Do it while driving by yourself. That's the best time to practice
Good point. Being alone in the car doesn't happen very often though.
Ah, what the hell, doesn't matter. If I do a Stitch voice and a turkey impression in front of everyone, I should be able to do that too.
It's just takes practice, you'll get there. I'm sure of it
I hope so
Silly voices are the best, they'll always enjoyed by your (future) kids/nieces/nephews/etc.
Keep practicing your craft, you'll find an appreciative audience sooner or later :)
