              Are you Minnesotans stealing our New England accents?

                        Yeah, I do too.

                        I don't have a Boston accent as pictured, though.

                              Put me in Minneapolis/St Paul, Salt Lake City, and Spokane. I've never been to SLC, and I spent all of ten minutes in Spokompton after missing an exit in Idaho. MN born and raised. When people talk to me they oftentimes tell me I sound like I'm from Philly. I don't get it.

                                Pretty cool. Made sure I answered how I talk now, was born just outside Boston but since I moved to Florida in middle school, dialect did change quite a bit over the years.
