    I know that one.

    lol...who were you hanging out with? Moe, Larry and Curly??? It's not 1935 now, I mean c'mon.

    Another one is "jeet." As in, "Jeet yet?" A shortened version of, "Did you eat yet?"

    This has nothing to do with that guy - it's not said with a hick accent.

    And of course there's "wooder" instead of water.

    That is a new one.
    Toilet or torlet? Mind you I've only known one non-tv person who ever referred to it as a torlet.

    ...Never heard that one....The quintessential "Philly accent" relies on a lot of "oh"s...if that's the phonetic way of pronouncing it...Like instead of boat, it's "bo-oht". If that makes sense or instead of bathing suit...it's baidin suit.....A professor from Penn has directed his entire studies towards it....Has a lot of influence on the Baltimore accent too....It's less to do with the "New Yorker" way of speaking...That's why Sly Stallone's accent in Rocky disappoints me.

    I think it's pretty interesting, but then again I'm a homer.

    That is an awesome quiz.
    They pegged me for North Central (Minnesota) and that I'm probably mistaken for Canadian a lot.
    Funny though, unlike their description, I think the characters in Fargo sounded ridiculous ;)

    I'd say, "I wish I could see this," but I'm sure I very often see this outside my house anyway.

    even the Romans couldnt defeat the Scots... i see no reason to suggest that a city full of fat crack addicts will defeat us. ;)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
