Why in the world would me going to NY have anything to do with this topic? I'm afraid I don't follow.

BTW, I am going there in September or August.

Nope!

Does Sunnyslope qualify as a "middle-class white neighborhood" to you?

I've never been there, but I've heard the stories.

No, it doesn't qualify as 'middle-class white neighborhood', you unilaterally introduced that. It qualifies as 'you like my seester?'.

Your point is pointless in the context, which is accents in various places. If you haven't been to the places, what the hey?

Does that mean you sound like Boomhauer (sp?) from King of the Hill? I once worked with a couple of guys from Texas (well one from Texas, the other, if not from there, was from another southern US state), and sometimes, it was hard to understand what they were saying.

Still, you haven't heard a real accent until you've heard a Newfie (person from Newfoundland, Canada) talk.

Yeah, we just have accents. We don't talk like a shit salesman with a mouth full of samples....
