Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I, OTOH, am not an inspiration. I bought a jumbo box of Red Hots at the dollar store earlier, and busted into it. And now may finish it. Edit: I mean, Hot Tamales.
An inspiration to classic candy eaters everywhere!
I'll take it!
In North America, anyone not of Native American descent is an immigrant or descended from immigrants*. So maybe very different places were settled by similar ethnic groups, leading to similar regional accents. One hypothesis anyway.
Lots of native New Orleanians sound like they are from New York. For realsies. Irish/German/?
but apparently there's a pocket of people (must be tiny tiny people) in North Carolina who have the same accent as Shakespeare.

Pretty cool.

Yeah, I think that's folks from the same part of Ireland settling in both.
Also plenty of Italians.
Italian! Knew I was forgetting something obvious. It was odd for me to realize that if someone sounds like they're from NY, there's a good chance they were born and raised in NO.
Oh yeah, Italians.
