  2. I don't trust this one! It pegged me as General too but it did at least have Dixie with 35%. I am 110% Dixie. This test is rigged:)

  6. I get a different answer everytime I do that quiz. Then again, I have a different accent depending on whom I'm talking with, too.

  7. I'm from Chicago, but I don't do "da Chicaga speak" thing--I think I'm more Midwest. I have been accused of sounding like a Valley girl, but I don't know what they are talking about? I have to speak "Appalachian American" when I talk to my friend Fain, otherwise I can't understand a thing she's saying. I have to talk like her to understand her--go figure!
