A Very Interesting Quiz

"What does the way you speak say about where you’re from?"

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

Very interesting.

I guess that between Ireland, Nevada, and Southern California, it couldn't figure out that I'm from South Florida.

It got me (Springfield Mass) and it said it was sneakers but I highly suspect "grinder", a name for a submarine sandwich limited to certain parts of New England, was the giveaway.

One of the cities they picked was within 60 miles of where I grew up. Not bad.
