Reading over the governor's statement explaining his reasons for denial of clemency, my brain couldn't help but do so in an Arnold voice. Sometimes, to amuse friends, I would read portions of it aloud while doing the voice.
Maybe it's a bit tasteless, like the anime-girl Demon Core memes, but there's just something about hearing the legal and administrative justification for proceeding with an execution in the voice of the Terminator.
I'm the same way with famous YouTubers. If I see "Guru Larry" Bundy Jr. or Clint "LGR" Basinger leave a comment on someone else's video, my brain reads it in their voice.
