Had to look up a Louisiana accent just to see, and it sounds a bit different in some unnameable way but still definitely just South. Aside from being able to pick out she must be from some nebulous southern state that wasn't NC, I think we could have gotten along fine.

Which I guess just means you and I wouldn't be able to communicate in person if I played up my childhood accent even a little. Which is fair. The day I introduced my first bf to my dad, I still vividly remember having to stand in as translator between them and I still don't understand how that happened. He was only one state up, and from a more rural area.
