![]() Midland.. which means I have no accent. But it didn't ask me if I say "like" and "totally" every few words... so I didn't get "valley girl"
I am on the West Coast. ![]() |

![]() "North Central" is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw "Fargo" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.
Pffft ya fer sure....hoser

![]() Apparently I broke the internet with my answers...I finished the quiz twice, hit submit, but the results page wouldn't load. Let's just say I'm from Awesome.

![]() This exact quiz is missing so I found The NY Times version (link below) and it said my answers applied to these three cities: Rochester, Milwaukee, Fresno. Since I have lived in the northeast and Ohio only, I guess that’s not too bad.

![]() It guessed Modesto, California USA - way wrong.
![]() Except for working a year in Los Angeles, I've never spent any time near there. Yet, I'll admit I didn't know how to answer some of the questions. Like what do I call a large road? I checked other as neither "autobahn", "autostrada", nor "motorway" were listed. |

![]() By taking an online "quiz" I'm wondering if your data and that of your friends are now being shared by Cambridge Analytica. Ahhh, not to worry. You're, no doubt, on Facebook so what's a little more data among friends?

![]() It figured out I grew up in the Boston and NYC areas but didn’t pick up on my California adulthood (freeway should have been a big clue).
