But I bet you could make a mint doing voices for little boys in cartoons.

It's called growing up

[Rongi]

Cybernetico is the bigest fucking moron ever.

Ever.

I hate mine too . I sound like my uncle

[Sethomas]

My voice fluctuates throughout the day. I can only sing in cold weather, and even then, poorly.

But yeah, in summary, I hate my voice too.

You DO realize that you are now required by law to provide us with a sound clip, don't you?

After all, if someone talks about how much they hate their face, they have to post a picture. Or if someone says how big their penis is, they.... well, we let that one slide.

But come on. We need to hear what you sound like (for those of us not cool enough to come over and hear it in person), so that we can respond by telling you that you:

a) Don't sound like a 2-year-old.
b) Do sound like a 2-year-old, but that's oddly sexy.

Quitting ciggies is the best option, that if you do smoke.

Avoid eating too much wheat such as wheat bread, crackers, cereal, etc.

Drink tea.

And most of all, put more fucking feelings into it, sing it like you really mean it.

I bet you could make a mint pretending to be a little boy in sicko fetish movies.

I always kind of forget what my voice sounds like and whenever I imagine myself talking to somebody or whatever, I always imagine it in a different voice. then when I go to talk it's kind of disapointing.

Another thing I hate is that I used to be able to do a dead-on Bobcat Goldthwait impression, and now I can't.

[!!!!]

My voice is crap. I used to always think that I sounded like a boy for some reason, but now I realize I just sound like an idiot.

Usually I forget what I sound like too, but I just bought an answering machine and I had to record the message thing. It's seriously embarassing. I tried really hard to sound like an adult

A long time ago I read somewhere that adults that sound like children had some kind of mental trama when they were younger and somehow got stuck with a kid voice. But I don't know if they meant baby talk type of speaking or actually pitch/tone/whatever of the voice. WEll either way sounds like bullshit to me

My voice changed almost overnight in Jr. high. I was a little girl with Greta Garbo's voice-without the accent.
I read this on a public speaking website:

"Women's voices are generally lighter & higher in pitch than men's. It is difficult for us to compete there, & research shows more credibility is given to people with deeper voices. What can you do? Practise deepening your voice. It is possible to change those high notes & use them less often. If you are blessed with a deep voice, practise varying it also."

You might also want to try a speech therapist. Other than that, I have no other ideas.

I was going to say something similar, but in a not so pervy way.

Ways I've found to deepen my voice are Strong Liquor, Cigars & Punk Rock. :/

[Jeanette X]

I think we should nickname Doopa "Squeaky".

Pervy schmervy. We should have a "What does everyone sound like" thread, so we can all hear what everyone sounds like. And they should all be of quotes from movies or TV shows.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who's fantasized about Jixby saying, "In the name of the Lord, SHUT UP!"

Besides, I bet Doopa's voice is very pretty. After all Rog doesn't seem to hate it.

[Mockery]

I couldn't marry someone with an annoying voice. I think it's all in her head.

As for my voice, people have already heard it in a.l.e. songs and various minimocks.

[Zero Signal]

Doopa's voice sounds best when she's been drinky-drinky on the margaritas.

[Mockery]

"I'll just deliver this mouse baby to the cat family! *hiccup*"

[Cybernetico]

I sound different that what I hear, and it's odd

Now I sound worse since I got this cold

Speech Therapy:

"But daddy ... it's soooo big!"

[Rev. Danno]

Doopa, I hate my voice as well,
I always get called Ma'am on the phone, I guess I have a femine voice. Burdock! Do I have a girly voice? I can't remember what other mockers I've met...

[Rongi]

Heh, my voice was a little girly when I was a kid

I would answer the phone and people would think I was my mom

[whoreable]

take a vow of scilence.

[Zosimus]

smoke a lot of cigarettes

In "I will beat Pacman" you sound like your throat's ripping apart from all the screaming :/ . Either that or I haven't listened to it in a long time.
