I can't stand "bubbler." Apparently people from Wisconsin are supposed to say "bubbler." I never hear anyone from the Madison area saying it, but people coming from other parts of the state say it.

A desperate one, Boo!!! ;)

I'm not sure... I speak how I speak... I just recently realised that I speak a lot of aussie slang without thinking. I shall ponder this...

Regarding my accent, however... I am always asked where I orginally came from. Tis usually a surprise response to my stating I was born and raised in aussieland!! More explanations always seem to have to follow... people get curious about why you speak like you do when it's different to what they are used to. :D

I speak literature. Also, I tend to talk really really fast, and my words jumble together, this nullifying any dialect I may have.

Other than that, I tend to sound like whomever it is I may be speaking to, which is more often than not...

Inherently Mexican.
