>>8343290My understanding of American accents
Southerners sound like Hank Hill
Mid-Westerners say "ay, pally" and sound like that guy from The Simpsons
Californian's are perpetually high
New Yorkers are either Woody Allen or aggressively Italian
The generic TV accent is from somewhere in the North. I don't know
The far north is basically Canada and sounds like Fargo
Black people just sound "black", no matter where they come from
