this is interesting
This is the kind of stuff I would study sometimes in certain linguistics classes I took...and now I'm taking a blog quiz about it. What the hell is going on with the world?
My answers are interesting too, though, since I grew up in Southern California. Is "valley-speak" an option? I did used to spend my summers on Long Island - maybe that's where the 20% Yankee comes in.
