Why do some people add a R to the word ‘wash’?? They pronounce it “warsh”. I hate that shite.

I spent time in both as a youth. I'll take Louisiana, at least, I know what to expect.

Whatever you do, don’t move to Seattle, Warshington or Warshington DC.

Never listen to The True Crime Garage podcast with the two hosts from Columbus then. They both drop sawl in every episode. To be fair, one of them is clearly retarded. I have to turn that shite off and go drink a pop.

I grew up and lived in Lorain, OH for 18 years. Nextdoor to Amherst actually.

Never heard a single person say sawl

Op needs to specify town and ethnicity and age of speakers.

That's more of a Pittsburgh accent. It's atrocious.
