dumbass accent meme
WTF I don't have a local identity?
I've actually lived in the Midwest my whole life, and this quiz result probably contributes to the whole "Midwestern = real American" meme that comes up every election season. Or something. At any rate it's stupid.
What American accent do you have?

Neutral. Not Northern, Southern, or Western, just American. Your national American identity is more important to you than your local identity, because you don't really have a local identity to begin with.
Take this quiz now - it's easy!
This is silly: everyone has an accent whether it's recognized as such or not. (Anyone with a better background in linguistics/American studies want to spork this?)
You can hear what I actually sound like here. Though I suppose a lot of those are just me reading things and I tend to go all mid-Atlantic when reading in public, because I'm pretentious. ;)
