Weird

So I never really buy it when people in other parts of the country tell me that I have a "Philly Accent". To me, a Philly accent brings to mind someone from South Philly ordering a "cheesesteak wit" or something along those lines. But me? No, I picture myself as sort of a vacuum of accent - neither good, bad nor indifferent. Even as I took this little quizzlet thing that I saw on G-Knee's blog, in fact, I thought my answers were all pretty middle of the road and normal. Yet, nonetheless, I have been outed as a Philadelphian. Go figure. Or should I say, "Fughetaboutit!"

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: Philadelphia

Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you're not from Philadelphia, then you're from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you've ever journeyed to some far off place where people don't know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn't have a clue what accent it was they heard.
