    Default how do Folks Talk Where You're From? (Baltimore Accent)

    For the record I only have a slight Baltimore accent.

    My father on the other hand...

    zink = sink
    coberaider = carburetor
    extrasize = exercise
    bum = bomb
    anttracks = anthrax

    I'm not as country as this guy, but it's hard not to talk this way when you live in Western Kentucky. He lives about fifteen minutes from me - I love how people underestimate a person with a southern accent. Keep on thinking we're stupid because of the way we talk. It makes it easier for us to take you to the cleaners

    Almost everyone I know has an accent, except the people who live where I do, (Unless they are originally from somewheres else...)

    Don't have an accent in my area, unless you're someone that moved from an area that you had one in.

    Well I am not sure what kind of accent I have, most of the people in the Piedmont region of North Carolina speak with a little southern accent here and there, guys like former Gov. Mike Easley and piece of shit John Edwards are EXTREME cases of people who either try too hard to have an accent or try and polish their accent up a bit to sound dignified.

    They'a = There
    Own = On
    Awf = Off
    Supuh = Super
    Seve'uh= Severe
    Septembuh, Octobuh, Novembuh = September, October, November

    I don't speak with much of a recognizable accent, it's probably a mixture of accents.

    Good idea for a thread.

    I pretty much sound like anyone else from the west coast. I don't have much (if any) Canadian accent, or so the Americans tell me. I probably sound like someone from Washington, Oregon, or California.

    This is funny:

    Lets say its pretty unique and takes some getting used too.Seems to vary from area to area.It gets sterotyped though.....its as much terminology as it is accent.And at times does fall along racial lines.Been here a while and still stand out in spots.

    this is dated quite a bit here....early 80's and might do modern day a diservice Lol.

    This is an interesting thread because if I don't think about it I just assume that everyone on here sounds like I do.

    Hearing Legion on Kid Thunders radio show was fucking weird for a few seconds because he didn't sound anything like I assumed he would.

    I have a strange voice. Also I take that Nexium and it really dries the throat and cottonmouth, so I sounded even weirder. My mom didn't even recognize my voice after I started taking it for a couple of weeks
