Texan is the only sub-dialect worth knowing. If you can talk to a Texan, you can talk to a REAL American.

I am SOOOOOOO tired of all the Jersey/NYC dialects we are subjected to on the news every day, mixed with that whiny Valley Girl upward inflection all the snowflakes (and even some people way too old to be snowflakes but who are apparently wannabe snowflakes) use at the end of every sentence, even if it's not a question. It's like their begging to be listened to, or to be taken seriously (even if their nonsense is totally unworthy of a hearing.)

Do you know what I'm talking about? I always yell at the T.V. when they do that... "Are you asking us, or telling us?"
