I remember I was supposed to see GnR many years ago,but was sick. I was bummed for a long time and figured I may never get the chance to see them,as Buffalo doesn't get a large amount of major tours. But 1994 was a while ago and I'm over it,lol. Now the canceled RATM tour of 2000 is a different story...you want to impress Capp? Forget G-Ball's sloppy seconds and inforoo's most loved lardo...bring us Rage Against the Machine! (But spare the ethnic labor jokes please & thanks!)
I don't have an accent except I use the word yall ALOT..
Also do people up North call it Pop or Soda water? I call everything Coke even if its a Sprite
Dude you're from Houston. You HAVE an accent. And of course y'all is obviously a staple.
Dialects by Region 101.
Your probably right. When I go to other parts of the country though the only dead give away is when I say y'all instead of "yous guys" which by the way I cant stand.
And clearly you aren't a rapist (I hope) but the way you pop into any thread where a woman happens to be lamenting her lack of ride to Bonnaroo and tell them to come hop on your bus sounds extremely rapey.

I lived in San Diego from when I was 1 to about thirteen, so definitely long enough to pick up any accent. I never thought I had an accent until I moved to Knoxville and kids in school would tell me I had a funny accent. I guess there is a "western" accent, I just never (still dont) realized it.

I live in the Arkansas - Oklahoma region of JJ's map. Often, when I am in Central Texas, I get asked if I am from the Golden Triangle/ Houston- Louisiana area.

I had a few classes on the topic. Seems that the "western" accent really isn't an accent at all. In fact it just seems to be the absence of one. Sorry cks and other west coasters! I'm sure Y'ALL still have a wonderful tone.
"Yess bie, lord tunderin jesus I tell ya, when I goes down sout fer bonnaroo, I tells ya the people down der is nice as all hell, but by the Jesus does the talks funny! Ma love I tells ya, they talks right outta'ver bie." Anyone ever talk to somebody from Newfoundland?

Well then. I guess you learn something new every day

The small town I grew up in was borderline both areas so I guess I got a little bit of a few different regions (including East Texas which is a little world of it's own imo).

I was at Esther's Follies in Austin and they were doing this skit on Rick Perry seceding from the Union. The actor was breaking down on a map how Texas would be split into four different territories. I got a good laugh when he announced that East Texas would have it's own time zone and told anyone traveling there to set back their watches 100 years.

All this talk about accents is putting me to sleep. Can someone please tell another fat Axle joke. Seriously though, this thread has been very entertaining. Thanks.
