well 1102 already got to this one (jerkass), but i'll drop something in here too -
Not everyone has the new england accent, but enough do to call it prevalent. It's just like that SW airlines commercial - sometimes, guys w/out the accent will just break out w/ it, a la:
*normally* Well, I am quite excited about the prospect of this evening's ventures. The mixer with DG should be a hoot, and I am more than ready to trip the light fantastic, seeing as my statistics test was not all that wicked HAAAAH-AAAAH-AAAH-AAAHD . . . NOOOO!
Sometimes certain words just come out with the accent, from supposedly normal new englanders. It's great (Morick - think jericksen! hahaha)
It's quite a funny accent - especially when it's coming from a construction worker who's swearing up a storm at a yuppie who double-parked his BMW in front of a tow zone, and they're both coming back w/ "Goda hell you hahd-on!" or "keep diggin ya hole there, pahdner" - new englanders are a freakin riot.
