I'm sure you all know this already, but since I don't, where is everybody from?

Sure, mostly looking for now.

So do you have a really cool accent?

Low turnout? You've blown off my last 2 get togethers, and we had quite a turnout. Shame we won't be doing them anymore.

I'm originally from St. Louis, MO and I've been moving back and forth everywhere between there and northeast Illinois my entire life.

I spend so much time imitating old people, southern accents, english accents, Boston accents, etc. that I'm not sure anymore...

Actually I have a Connecticut accent, which is pretty much nothing - we talk fast but pronounce everything neutrally - like people on TV.

Wear a UF shirt around, maybe you'll recruit some!

Ive been told I have a fancy southern accent.
Not as bad as some I heard in the Savannah airport tho

Jawjah, is waaay worse than Tejas.


At least in my experience.


Upstate NY is proving to be one of the weirdest though, it's like a cross between the Swedish influenced upper-midwest (Think Fargo) with the Bronx accent.

You definitely sound like a Texan. I've got the nasally vowely northern thing starting to happen now... and it's really funny when that gets combined with my slight missouri drawl. People have been laughing at the way I talk for years.

Why don't we have our locations under our user names... that would be like... so gnarley.

I hear no Texan in your voice.


edit: Its just a pure sexual melody with every sentence.

I'm sure most of them would contain something witty like "under your desk"

I wore one once that had the "more fun than skinning a dead hooker" on the back. All I saw was people giving me disgusted looks and soccer moms telling their kids to "stay away from that man over there."

edit: and the sleeves are a little shorter than I'm used to, the bottom of my tattoo sticks out. I'm sure that helps draw people in.
