Fun fact: when I was around 6-8, I had a THICC Southern accent, having grown up in Tennessee and Mississippi. We moved to Arizona, and I was being introduced to my new teachers, and one leaned over and went "Oh my god you sound so cute, where are you from??"
That was attention I didn't want so I worked to talk without my accent and now it only comes out when I start talking fast.
Mixed with born/raised Detroit area. Midwest accent
@LnzyHou I'm pretty sure that's what everybody sounded like when I visited Durango last year.
@LnzyHou I'm fairly confident it was Durango. I'm absolutely terrible at remembering things so it really could be anywhere and they'd all sound right.
@LnzyHou souvenir t-shirt I bought says Durango, so small world indeed.

Yep. I lived 30+ years in CO. I am sometimes told my CO accent is evident.
What?
