What American accent do you have?
Created by Xavier on Memegen.net

North Central. This is what everyone calls a "Minnesota accent." If you saw "Fargo" or "Drop Dead Gorgeous" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Some Americans may mistake you for a Canadian.

If you are not a northern Minnesotan, you are probably one of these:
(a) A Yooper from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan; or
(b) A Canadian who has a mostly but not completely Canadian accent

Take this quiz now - it's easy!

We're going to start with "cot" and "caught." When you say those words do they sound the same or different?

Same, no wait I mean different, maybe, a little bit different... Different Same

Gas price predictions for the next 6-24 months

It sucks. But I really can't say I find it surprising.

From what I can tell, anyone who's been paying attention saw this coming quite some time ago. Seeing $4.00 a gallon at the pump doesn't even phase me, and I've been driving since it was $1.19 a gallon. Is $5.00 a gallon coming? I wouldn't be surprised if we hit that this summer. Diesel's already up to that point.
