Texans don't talk as funny as people from the southeast. I've heard a lot of people talk that are from Tennessee, Kentucky, South Carolina, Virginia, etc. They usually have big southern accents. Paula Deen on Food TV is from Georgia and she has a big old southern accent.

People in the northeast talk funny too. I went to Maine last October and they have big accents there. I think their accents sound even funnier than Texas accents.

I can't stand Boston accents...but I would NEVER go on their boards and say that. That is just RUDE in my opinion.  |
