1. no one really knows
2. dropped on collective heads at birth
3. inbreeding (sister-momma)
4. cleft pallet
5. drank the water (couldn't read the signs)
6. momma thought grain alcohol and tobacco qualified as pre-natal vitamins
*more to come as I think of them
and I don't know what happened to the poll with the redundant choices. SLY/SJ?

#3 is only done in West Virginia...surprised Medic didn't know that, seeing as how a sliver of that "state" borders PA. But then again, the fact there is no number small enough to accurately reflect his (or any Yankee's) IQ might have something to do with that...
More proof of Yankee stupidity:
Under a suspension bridge in Boston, they had to install lighting under the water so as not to "disorient the fish" during the daytime as they swam under the bridge and thus in its shadow.

They say the backwoods southern belle type dialect is the most accurate in terms of old-English and that stuff. I actually don't have too bad of an accent compared to around here. North Carolina has the best accent because we have a little bit of southern but don't sound like we're complete idiots. Plus there's nothing better than Carolina girls.

i agree with the carolina girls...best in the world. however the accents??? there are accents in all southern states that make people sound like idiots, and of course the northerners form boston sound just as bad.

I'm not touching what GMTM says. I'll leave it at Carolina girls, best in the world.
I hate the Detroit, upper midwest accent.

YOU FREAKIN' CHEAT!
funny how removing the redundant "Northerner" choice deleted the OVERWHELMING preference for US speaking correctly.
you must be a Hendrick fan

Hey I may be a VA boy (which is the south btw) but I do not have an accent. My mom came from DC and my dad came from Chicago. And they raised me right when it came to how to talk properly

Grew up a Carolina boy. Today, I tell my son, whatever you do, don't marry a girl from South Carolina. She may be hot but every last one of them is frickin' insane.

That's South Carolina. I'm talking about the better Carolina.
And GMTM, I've never seen those shirts and I've lived in NC my entire life. I've seen Carolina Girls...Best in the World (along with every other college ripping that off) but not the one you're talking about.

It's true. The girls from the North (you notice how I put that) are slightly more even-keeled than the
true Southern belles. However, every last one of
them is flat out dangerous behind the wheel. There really ought to be mandatory monthly driving tests for anyone under 20, over 70 and any chick from NC.

I'll agree 100%. It's funny how many different types of people there are from NC.

LB's accent is very thick! i thought he was from the deep south when i met him. when i first came to LU, i couldn't understand what anyone was saying, and meeting Smitty, Rell, and Evan didnt help
