i love how jersey or new york didn't even rate with having an accent, when everyone complains about the jersey accent all the time. *rolls eyes*

even if i was from boston...i'd probably still root for the yankees. *flees flying objects*

These quizzes are way better than working!

Apparently my accent is dead on to where I live now. That's not exciting/scandalous!

"You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio."

Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.

From Sydney, Australia ... the accents are not remotely similar as far as I can tell. I am amused.

Dude. How can you say that? Yankees suck.

It doesn't even matter if you're from Boston; if you live in the state of Massachusetts and root for the Yankees, you're a pariah. You have less than five friends, people beat you up and give you dirty looks on the street -- it's a rough life. You don't wanna go there.

good thing i don't live in massachesetts, isn't it?

and i don't care if the yankees suck. they're my team, and i'm going to stand by them through the good, and scream at them through the television in the bad.

I feel the same about the Red Sox.

Hey, p.s. Can you sneak a look at my [livejournal.com profile] fandom20 table and see if any of my fandoms are yours, and request a fic / give me prompts? My brain gave out after I wrote those 10 FM drabbles last night. :|

If it makes you feel better I'm from the West Coast of Canada (Vancouver to be exact) and this quiz says I speak 'Inland North'. Apparently I'm suppose to be from Wisconsin or Chicago. Though I will admit I called carbonated beverages pop.

i think this test is very faulty. at least i'm on the right coast though.
