Bubbler was like shooting fish sticks in the freezer. If you call it a bubbler, you're from Wisconsin. My cities were Madison, Rockford, and Milwaukee. My dialect similarity map also maps where people from the Upper Midwest migrated to in the late 1800s - early 1900s (except for that weird blob in Texas, no one moves to Texas; that would be stupid).

buuuuuullshit. It was bubbler in boston, it was bubbler in new york. it's always been the bubbler, at least since 1982.

I just did the damn test and apparently i didn't go to college in boston, as i thought i did, but actually in San Jose /CA.

Been a hose bib nearly all my life. Grew up as an USAF brat...traveled a lot, but mostly lived in western Mass and Washington state as a kid...after that...a rolling stone gathers no moss.

At one time I figured I have no accent, but ain't so. Everybody has an accent... unless they're mute.

There are accents in sign language too

"grinder" is the CT cheat code. I dated a girl from upstate NY who laughed about how she always knew her customers were from CT when they asked for grinders. The first time someone asked her for a meatball grinder she thought they were asking for the actual meat grinding apparatus.

Uh, I've never lived in Fresno, Long Beach or Baltimore, so WTF! My niece lives in Long Beach, haven't been there in 5+ years. Bay Area (I'm in Berkeley) is maybe a couple hundred miles from Fresno. Hell of an artist from Fresno, Brian Kenney Fresno! Seriously!

Yeah, Brian's accent sounds completely normal to me...
