People from St. Louis don’t have a Southern accent

[BrownBunny]

Oh, well this explains it all.

The only way you could be an hour north of Chicagoland and be in Indiana is if you
go to Notre Dame or some other dainty bougie-ass school where you might as well
be in the part of Michigan where they eat pizza with a knife and fork, so you ashamed
of the Country ways from whence you came. Got it.

I grew up in STL County not the city. I’m not ashamed of it all. I proudly tell people when they ask me. I’ve never had a Southern or country accent. I’ve spoken the same way my entire life because it is the same way every around me speaks.

You can't be an hour north of Chicago in Indiana. That place doesn't exist. You must've been in the back row of my middle school geography class.



This map is bullshyt for the simple fact that accents change once you leave out of the Chicagoland area.

You drive 1.5 hours south of Chicago in both Illinois or Indiana, you start to hear southern drawls.

Everybody knows this from Chicago and it's represented in all types of dialect maps.

St. Louis is 5 hours south of Chicago, you guys are going to absolutely have drawls.

South Bend, idiot. I posted my voice. I don’t have a drawl. If you can hear someone clearly speaking without a Southern accent and still insist on this bullshyt, you’re trolling.

You do have a drawl, sweetheart.

And South Bend, if it was overlayed with the City of Chicago, would sit at it's southern border, where it's last neighborhood, Calumet Park sits, before you enter into the south suburbs.

No portion of the State of Indiana is north of Chicago.

I don't need to hear your life story.

If I'm telling you that people in upper Illinois have drawls and you keep denying that St. Louis, which sits at the lower portion of Illinois doesn't, then you have to be trolling.

Bougie school? There is no bougie school north of Northwestern.

Where do you hear the drawl, sir?

Hurr you go again with this BOOWLsheeyit.

St. Louis is dying as we speak. People keep moving to KC,
while they leaving STL in droves.

STL ain’t been crackin’ since The Monastery and Club Casino was on.
Y’all got all that space with nothing on it. You got ruins of a downtown.
You gotta go all the way to Chesterfield or St. Charles to do anything.
STL might as well not exist East of the Airport and North of Forest Park.

“Country” ain’t just how your voice sounds, it’s things you do.
Y’all country. Ain’t even any shame in that - most niccas are raised country.
But don’t lie to these nice folk on the Internet talmbat y’all aren’t,
because it’s more muthafuccas in St. Louis/Ferguson/U City/Florissant/
adjacent to Lucas & Hunt Road that look/sound/act like Nelly or Murphy Lee
than there are that don’t.

You’re an idiot if you truly believe that. The only ruins are the same ghettos that exist in KC. If anything, much of the ghetto if being gentrified. Please call me KC has anything comparable to Forest Park, STL Zoo, STL History Museum, The Art Museum, Science Center, or the Botanical Gardens much less anything else in the downtown STL area. No one is flocking to dusty ass KC. I can’t believe Coli has you gassed up enough in your head to say that dumb shyt. If I ever move, it would be the laaaaast city. Learn your place.

I lived in Florissant for the first nine years of my life, never heard someone that sounded like Nelly that wasn’t ghetto. AAVE is not country.

So you got an article here:

- from two years ago

- that got KCs name in its mouth as the headline to matter

- bragging about Population Density, like that matters. I didn’t say y’all don’t have a lot of people
I said your city is dying (1) a lot of people are leaving, (2) there is a lot of wasted/non-used areas.

How you gonna brag about being 26th in population density when you used to be in the Top 5 most
Populated? You hustling backwards and sideways. Y’all used to be a bigger deal than Chicago, now
Nashville gets more burn than you.

I agree that most of y’all population is dense, though (bars).

- this bytch for reals said The Zoo. If you come to somebody’s town and ask them what’s the thang to do and they
talmbat The Zoo..bowh bowh. St. Louis, I tell ya...
