              Its all in how you talk
              LOL- my browser needs updated

              and, what you say about your wife brings Marge Gunderson to mind- i hear this...

              So that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper. And those three people in Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money. There's more to life than a little money, you know. Don'tcha know that? And here ya are, and it's a beautiful day. Well. I just don't understand it

                  A question should be "Do you say 'd.o.e' more than 5 times a day?'" If so, autolocate to California.

                  My map was pretty accurate. Said, NYC/Newark. Im from a bit further south of NJ. I think I map have the lingo of NJ, but probably not the accent. I try quite hard not to speak with a jersey accent.

                        maybe kinda close. i was born in socal and lived there for a year after iraq (that was enough).

                        i've also had my linguistics influenced by my time in the army, being around everyone from everywhere, y'all.

                        ALL Y'ALL.

                              Providence (spot on), Worcester (embarrassing) and Minneapolis? Closest I've been to Minnesota was driving through Chicago on the way out here.

                              Are you Minnesotans stealing our New England accents?

                                I got Reno, NV and Sacramento, CA but the spread in Colorado was pretty good so I'd say it was decently accurate for me.
