It's kind of funny but not. Growing up in a place where there are a lot of temporary residents due to the US Navy and such, we were sort of at odds with some accents and phrases of our classmates and neighbors.
If we were around family, we seemed to have a different way of phrasing things. Guess it rubbed off. I've had some say I didn't quite sound like I was from the 'Deep' South. That really hurt my feelings. We're about as deep South as you can go without getting caught in the rip currents of the Gulf.
