Has anybody here caught themselves starting to pick up accents of people they talk to, really fast?

I've done this so many times and gotten some people really mad, but it's like I don't even know when I do it sometimes. Here's an example. I was talking to someone (don't remember who or why) and they had a somewhat heavy latin american accent. Over the course of maybe 30 seconds I was starting to talk IN THAT ACCENT. They asked me why I was mocking their accent, and I tried to explain that I did NOT mean to do that. And I will be watching some show or something and one of the actors has a heavy accent, the next time I talk to someone, sometimes I'll talk in THEIR accent. Has this happened to anybody else?
