Do you Virginians really talk like this?
Loudoun County News, Weather and Sports from Loudoun Times-Mirror
I'm picking on an old firend I grew up with in Leesburg. We moved out of there in 1973. Michael "Moe" Murphy was my schoolmate and best friend when we left. I reconnected with him a couple years ago on Facebook and follow his stuff on the Loudon Times. I crack up watching that video knowing that I may have eventually grown up talking that way. It may sound normal to some of you but jeez, he sounds like a character from Deliverance.

Re: Do you Virginians realy talk like this?
The first time I went to VA (VA Beach) I was shocked at how thick the Southern Accents were. But of course, with the accent came the usual friendliness that the South always provides.

My mother used to always say "Fah-jen-ya" instead of Virginia.

That guy sounds more Mississippian than Virginian to me.

Re: Do you Virginians realy talk like this?
I grew up in Manassas Va then moved to Tx when I was 12,my accent is bad,I hate it.Met someone a few yrs back for the first time and he told me you sound like you have a mix of Virginia and Tx accent going on,I was amazed he could tell that not knowing I was from there.Anyway I dont like it,I think it makes me sound like an ignorant redneck{not that theres anything wrong with that}lol
