Fun Stuff

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Inland North

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

I have to disagree with this one just a little...people in TX thought I was from the South, people in MT thought I was from the Midwest or the South, and people from the South think I'm from the Midwest....and I DO NOT say pop....I say soda or Coke. I guess I'm just confused!!

I didn't take the test, but I know it wouldn't work on me, lol. I have mixed accents from moving so much. I do NOT say Pop, I think that is crazy, pop is an action, not a drink, lol.
You won the Horizon coupons on my blog! Email me where to send them and I will get them off to you one of these days. (Sam is getting sick and I am worried it is Influenza)

I love this quiz. I, like most Canadians, come out as "The West" and that no one thinks I have an accent. That explains why Canadians end up in the entertainment industry in the US, I think. We're generic sounding ;+)

I'm from the west--no accent whatsoever to detect. Boring, I'm sure. And yes--we drink POP :)!

Thanks too for the heads up on that Ben Stein movie. I hadn't heard a thing about it and I love him! Hope it makes it's way to little old Boise Idaho!

Best to you!
