A lot of people from the south move to the state I live in, Indiana, and reproduce with Northerners.... creating one ugly accent. For example...these people tend to use worsh instead of wash. And feesh instead of fish.
Hmm, lots of people from the South are moving to Indiana? I believe it's the other way around.
I don't know what accent it is, but I overhear a lot of tourists/transplants sounding like this--they overpronounce everything. I cringe when I hear it.
Are talking about that Chicago accent? Here's Jay North (the guy overpronounces that, time, etc). Can you give some examples? It's got to be that Chicago accent.

Lol, I think you meant Mike North, but that annoying Jay Mariotti popped into your head.

Hm, I don't find that Maine dialect so weird as some said.
