What American accent do you have? (Best version so far)

Neutral

You’re not Northern, Southern, or Western, you’re just plain -American-. Your national identity is more important than your local identity, because you don’t really have a local identity.

Snarfed from rjlippencott: Name the five celebrities who share your birth year that you would most like to shag fancy the most strongly! To find your matches, we suggest you use Wikipedia (quick method) or IMDb (exhaustive list). To do this, go to Wikipedia and enter your birth year in the search box.

Seems reasonably close, although I’m still not sure how they get the overall number. I wish they had had more choices in the “exercise” category. If you’re curious, you can see how it compares with others. The stats, especially by age, are fascinating.

Very impressive; you are in the highest category of LA knowledge. You have obviously spent a good percentage of your life sitting in traffic, but you are still happy knowing that you live in one of the best climates anywhere in the United States. You make a great host to your out-of-town friends and family because you can show them a great deal of LA that most tourists never get to experience. Hope you enjoyed the test!
