<p>Yes. Or basically any New England accent. Water = woitah.
Coffee = coiffee.</p>
<p>It's amusing, but I personally don't find it very pleasant.</p>
<p>"Currently live in California, would like to live in Oregon or maybe Washington. Or somewhere in Europe, in a small castle. No kidding. You can get castles for what it costs to buy a flat in a big city here, so why not live the romantic life?"</p>
<p>Are you kidding me?! Castles! I went to several Castles in Ireland and the UK a while ago,and I cannot BELIEVE how anyone would be able to live in one. For example, there is no privacy whatsoever (all rock and holes). The bathrooms are terrible (there are several kinds, but they're mostly terrible). The stairs are very narrow, steps are uneven and small, and they last forever and ever and ever. Sometimes, steps are adjacent to only one wall, and there's no railing on the other. It makes me wonder if a lot of people died by losing their step.</p>
<p>It's not romantic at all. It's GROSS and not hygienic!</p>
<p>I like Ohio well enough, but I'd love to live in the Northeast. New York or Maine would be perfect. I want to be in the suburbs, but close to a big city for some entertainment. I love snow, and I'd hate living somewhere where winter is basically non-existent, not cold, and not snowy. But really, I'd much rather live overseas in the UK.</p>
<p>Oh dear god! first of all I've never said woitah in my life and don't intend to any time soon. Second of all, new York accents are not New jersey accents, and they're certainly not New England accents. Not that there's anything wrong with those accents, they're just different. A New York (besides like fran drescher types) accent is the absence of an accent.
Done.</p>
<p>I am an entering Duke '09er and I hope to go to Yale, NYU, Stanford, or Harvard law school. From there, I plan to live in Westchester, New York (Think where the Xmen movies were filmed).</p>
<p>A New York accent is not the absence of an accent. Think of TV anchormen and women: they all have midwestern accents. Thats why if you lived in Minnesota you would recognize so many of your former anchormen and women on the national networks. Actually, the South Dakotan/Nebraskan accent is considered ideal, I believe. Think Tom Brokaw.</p>
<p>I shudder to think that this is how we are thought to speak!</p>
<p>mw05... are you suggesting that a Minnesotan accent is the absence of an accent, because I can assure you that you for sure have accents in Minnesoooooota! I think <em>my</em> accent is ideal! ;)
People who say woitah and foicet (thas a new one) certainly don't live where I'm from... Maybe the Bronx.</p>
<p>People around DC don't really have a noticeable accent, in my experience, but that might be because they come from all over the country to work here and their accents have become homogenized.</p>
