Linguistics is oddly an interest of mine. I love hearing how different people speak and how cultural difference affect it. I found this site that various clips of english accents from all over. I thought it'd be interesting if people would attempt to select the accent that most closely fits your. It's be no means completely. For one, I don't think that it has a Pittsburgh accent which I find odd because it's pretty distinquished if you ask me.
The one from Haberham, PA is oddly like my sister's speech patterns so I suppose that's as close to mine as I can find. Of course, I had male voice and I fairly deep one at that. Also, I'm from near the border of PA and New York so I have a bit bit of rural new yorkian in me I guess.
