Yup, I am a Yankee! Never been to the upper midwestern- don't know how they talk! They did'nt have any typical New England words- like soda, we call it tonic, lobster, lobsta, car, ka!!! We speak weird I know-- but anywhere you go-- everybody knows where you are from !! lol The letter "r" does not exist in our accent !!
This question made me laugh...I have NEVER heard someone say "The Devil is Beating his Wife"

Looks like it was fairly accurate?
What do you mean *r* doesn't exsist, LOL
Interesting how you all pronounce some words
Now we know :)
Well good to hear it was mostly true, love when that happens, LOL
Nope never heard of that either with the devil.
No idea where it came from, sounds cute though.
However also have not heard of a fountain called a bubbler ::blush::
Where did you get that from?
Good to see it was part true for you :)
Is it mostly true?
Just wondering :)
