Those were not pronunciations, they were just you typing what your interpretations of what you think people say.
I live in the south and have never heard anyone say owl for all, caowl for call, foul for fall, etc.
And I heard PO-leese in long before I ever moved south.
travel to other parts of the south.
places like TN, AL, GA, SC, TX, etc. have ppl that pronounce words the exact way that i typed them in my last post.
lol @ this. now ppl don't even want to acknowledge their own accent.
lol @ a southerner saying that they never heard ppl pronounce the word thing like thang, call like cowl, fall like fowl, etc.
lol @ this bull. yeah, ok.
should i post youtube clips of southerners speaking like that?
maybe i should post a skit from project pat's mista don't play??
or grab a random gucci mane song off of the net and post it. or swisha house. or soulja boy. or, etc. etc.

lol @ you calling Mike a Southerner. He's from the Bronx.
I've lived in North Georgia for 23 years, and I have NEVER heard ANYONE pronounce ANY of those words the way you IMAGINE that they are pronounced in your little fantasy.

LOLOLOL!!!!!
i believe you.
soon as i get off of work i'm posting youtube clips.
the denial is strong. excuse me, straooowng.
*edit*
and mike needs to stop hanging out with transplants and interact with locals. then again, he's in FL so he's less likely to hear what i posted unless he's hanging out in areas he probably shouldn't be in.
i once dated a girl from miami that would say stuff like chirrdren. no, she didn't have your "typical" southern accent, but the pronunciation of certain words and the drawing out of words was still there. it is what it is.
Design and Build : This next statement is probably a really huge shock for you...... NOT EVERYONE LIKES WHAT YOU DO! Miami is the only place in the south that doesn't have the hey yall culture, which I HATE with a passion.
I honestly don't care. Most people would believe what 90% of people tell them in person, rather than a poll on a message board.
Of course you don't care. Unless the poll is going the way you want it to, then it's instantly legit - right?
