All the Canadians have similar answers, eh!

Yes, especially if they grew up together! [to paraphrase the song: "He's not Sunny, he's my brother..." (and we grew up in Ottawa to boot!)]

70 GAE15 Dixie10 Upper Midwestern5 Midwestern0 YankeeHey, this thing is prejudiced! They left out Pittsburghese! I speak about 95% of that. We say y'ins, worsh, Mundey, Tuesdey, Wenzdey...etc., Febarary, gum bands, n'at, and a whole bunch of other totally unintelligent things! LOL.The other test says I act like I'm 24 years old. Interesting, I'm 27 but feel like I'm 87.And the male/female brain test:It says 13.33% female, 86.67% male for me. I had to laugh when it said this:"You could break both legs and not get misty eyed."Funny, my ice hockey coach in high school used to ask me if I often ate rocks for breakfast.
