    I hate the way Yankees talk. I got 40%. Yankees talk very much like Easterners (meaning Ontario)...jerks.

    haha, i think it is funny Yanks pronounce "cot" like "cat" :p

    this test is better (even though its saying i'm bad at grammar.. cause i am when it comes to english):


    An unwashed plebian
    You scored 16% on orthophony and 46% on eugrammacy! Your accent is nothing exceptional; it may be "colorful" or you might just be from Southern California. You also don't catch some grammatical points, and are thus probably one of the people contributing to the death of the subjunctive, which is just as well. More than half of test-takers fall into this category; no one, as of this writing, has scored higher than 85% on the orthophony aspect of the test.

    True, but even Baltimore is more Southern than Northern Virginia. I mean, there was the Army of Northern VA, but from all the migrating snowbirds, politicians, and yanks with way too much money that put contemporary brick houses on the water with a bunch of circa 1750 colonial houses/beachhouses and totally screw up good coastline...

    That's the Potomac for you... Last I heard about up there, Annapolis was trying to steal water from a main that belonged for Virginia.

    Sometimes I wish I lived in the day of the oyster wars with Maryland.

    16% Dixie. Wow! You are a Duke of Yankeedom!

    Heh.

    The sandwich question is right on.

    A "true" italian is ham, pickles, tomatoes, mayo, mustard, pepper, american cheese, and green peppers.

    Though it's only an italian up here.
