English Subtitled in English
It's hard enough for English-only speakers to understand other languages; subtitling accented English erodes comprehension instincts even further. It's the latest on my list of banes of civilization. Feel free to comment with yours.
That one kind of bugs me too, Gerald. I feel as if somehow my intelligence is being questioned. "Oh, he won't get it. Better subtitle. And use small words."
