Apparently, us people from CT are supposed to have 'the closest thing to proper English' for our accent... I don't know if that's right, but I've been told that my accent consists of actually pronouncing all of my words, especially letters that can be slurred... like 'T's. Rather than saying 'Wanna go here?' I unconsciously take the time to say 'Want to go here?'
Though since going to school, I've been known to mimic some of my friend's Boston accents... "I'm gonna go paaaaak the caaaaa." Jam it back in, in the dark.  |

According to that quiz, I sound like I'm from 'The Inland North': 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".
Yet I don't call soda 'pop', nor have I ever been asked if I'm from Wisconsin or Chigaco. The Northeast was the very close second in the quiz though. And when I messed around with my answers to see what the description for the Northeast accent was, it was the same exact description! 'Pop'... bah! There's nowhere I can't reach.
