I was really surprised that this 25 question quiz pinpointed exactly where I grew up.
Very interesting.

I took it twice. Once it put me in Florida, the other time in South Carolina.

You most probably speak the English language as it's meant to be spoken.

Potato Bug of all things put me in Seattle, Portland, or Salt Lake City. I grew up primarily in Bellevue, WA, which is a suburb of Seattle.

I visited Pittsburgh once a couple years ago. I was going nuts trying to buy a cold six-pack of beer. I finally stopped at a warm-beer warehouse and asked the nice young lady where that could happen. She gave me the low-down (It can't), and I said, "So I guess getting a tall-boy in a drive-thru is out of the question" with a smile. Blank look: "Ah wha?"
The beer-barn question reminded me of that incident. 
As for the quiz, there was lot of red/orange in my area, but the cities it chose for me were in Nebraska.
