I've gotten that since elementary school. However, when I changed the group of people I was around, I didn't hear that anymore. Not in highschool, not in college. I know I sound the same but it's just the people around me who are different. When I speak to non-NYer's they tell me I have a New York accent. I don't hear it but I guess it is there. No, I don't throw in other languages to curse people out, but I do talk to bill collectors in Japanese. They don't mess with me after that.
