My bro
July 2, 2007
He smells funny. Please put that in there for me.

My little bro, born in Philadelphia, raised near Atlanta, GA took the accent test. These were his results:
| What American accent do you have? (Best version so far)
Midland (“Midland” is not necessarily the same thing as “Midwest”) The default, lowest-common-denominator American accent that newscasters try to imitate. Since it’s a neutral accent, just because you have a Midland accent doesn’t mean you’re from the Midland.

My results were entirely consistent with my former accent test results:
| What American accent do you have? (Best version so far)
Mid Atlantic Also known as a “Philadelphia accent” but also heard in south Jersey, Baltimore, and thereabouts.
