According to this quiz, I’ve managed to excise most of the damage done by three years in Louisiana:
| ### Your Linguistic Profile: |
| 70% General American English |
| 20% Yankee |
| 10% Upper Midwestern |
| 0% Dixie |
| 0% Midwestern |
It seems a bit weird now that “y’all” was once actually part of my speech pattern. Sadly, this means my dream of performing in the Blue Collar Comedy Tour is now even further out of reach.
