Map takes awhile to load after quiz since they're being hammered. Just give it a minute.

Even though I have adopted y'all, parking on any grassy area next to a sidewalk, and know what a service road is and use 'em frequently.. they still nailed my home dialect.

Bastards.

Boston, Newark, Worcester

i guess im the only person in the USA that pronounces Aunt like the a in 'palm' in general, and like ant when im talking bout a specific aunt

nah. that's a new england thing.

Jesus, this thing is ridiculously accurate. I got New York, Philadelphia and Washington, the three places I've lived (or, in Philadelphia's case, lived near) other than 15 months in Des Moines.

seattle/tacoma

makes sense considering closest to canada i guess?

tallahassee, jacksonville, va beach

Did not work well for me gents.

Suck it, New York Times

Apparently "sneakers" is extremely regional. But I've never heard anyone try to correct me on it.

Fremont, Newark and OKC. OKC is near the state I was born in, Newark is near the state I was raised in.

Fremont is based on my answer of firefly, so I think that's out the window.

What do you mean, "I guess"? You're from Vancouver. Canada wasn't included. What answer did you expect?

chicago/aurora/rockford

put on your gym shoes bitch

nailed it

ft lauderdale/ yonkers/ newark

i got honolulu

wichita - semi (instead of tractor trailer or 18 wheeler. all of which can be used by me but semi seemed right.)

nashville - lightning bugs (i've never heard anyone call them anything different. i've heard firefly, but from movies and shit. they're lightning bugs in real life lol)

tallahassee - yall

that one sorta makes sense cuz i was a kid in tampa florida

but nah. ya'll is universal

the only one close is tallahassee

im a filthy redneck hillbilly. its confirmed by this terrible quiz that was nowhere near my ACCENT

the ones i'm least similair too

is providence, PHILLY, and jersey city
