I'm seeing a pattern here of europeans being not-texans
[IMG]http://puu.sh/nZqka/a4607f0c0a.jpg[/IMG] The colors are pretty spot on but im in Seattle, not LA.
[t]http://i63.tinypic.com/tak58x.png[/t] Well, if it though I'd be in the dark spot next to NY, it would be right. Then again, my dad grew up in Hawaii, and my mom lived in NYC for years though she's from the aforementioned red area. Surprisingly accurate, I suppose.

Managed to get it to show the results in IE. [img]http://horobox.co.uk/u/reag/2016-03-30_14-47-24.png[/img] Huh...?
Wow, mine is really concentrated exactly where I live. Cool.
[IMG]http://zoeysmith.co.uk/gallery/chrome_2016-03-30_14-53-03.png[/IMG] Too posh for America.
My results put me up in New England... I've never lived there, but half of my extended family are yankees, so their language usage probably wore off on me. My map also showed a decent resemblance to west-coast dialect, which is about another quarter of my extended family, plus maybe whatever language I had picked up when we moved away from California when I was 1. The only place I seem to specifically not fit in, though, is New Orleans. Most of my map is a faint yellow/blue tinge.
Do anybody even fucking live in Rochester?

here's what I got: [img]http://i.imgur.com/IS2WUTp.png[/img] although I've lived in Norway for the entirety of my life, I'd say I listen to verbal English a relative lot, compared to how much I listen to Norwegian.
Apparently I'm from Arizona no thanks, Georgia is hot enough as is :blaze:
really cool and interesting results from non american and even non-english speaking countries in this thread.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FIWcZC2.png[/IMG] Accurate, I've lived in Grand Rapids my whole life. apparently "pop" gave it away the most. also "drinking fountain" instead of "water fountain".

[QUOTE=paul simon;50033028][img]http://puu.sh/nZpcg.jpg[/img] I'm a Norwegian New Yorker. Almost same result as OP, and we're both Norwegian. Hmmmm.[/QUOTE] Ayy scandinavian bruv :v: [t]http://lewd.se/f/leruyl_2016-03-30_18-24-52.png[/t]
Gotta love the southern accents [img]https://i.gyazo.com/e02d9813c177e191791671e64baf65c5.png[/img]
[QUOTE=Qaus;50033418][img]https://my.mixtape.moe/vxbwgf.png[/img] :worried:[/QUOTE] You got quite close to the same result as I did. I just got Spokane instead of Seattle though. [img]http://i.imgur.com/DE1QTJj.png[/img] Pretty accurate. The darkest spot on the map outside the Utah area is in fact where I live. (The Portland, Oregon area.)
I'm all over the place but things to note are that Illinois near Lake Michigan (Chicago area) are red (I was born and raised there til 10 years old) and that central Florida is red-orange and that's where I'm living right now.
