Boston
North Central
The Inland North

I love 'accents' because, as they say, here in the West we have the most unaccented speech around. I have never been ANYWHERE.

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."
