Title: I wish people who are from California would stop calling it "Cali"
Post by: J Bananas on June 05, 2009, 12:50:06 PM
It sounds so pitifully 1990's, like it should be used over and over in a disney channel movie about surfing. Plus whenever I go to New York or New England or Seattle, people are always like, "Yeah I love it out in Caaalliii" with their not-from-California accents, trying to sound laid back. Cali is an area in Colombia, I rep the state of California.

i dont know i dont see a cali accent, it sounds like the same as the accent most people have on TV, or mayb not having a strong accent as a southerner, boston guy, or newyorker is an accent in it self. but i never really considered it an accent

Thats why I started this. I rarely hear anyone call it cali except for people on here. It sounds lame when I still hear it in real life.

Exactly. Foreigners come out here and speak funny, but if you travel they will notice you have the accent. There might not be as much of the stereotype for it like there is with the Boston or Texas accents, but pretty much everyone has some sort of accent.

1) depending on where you're at in Cali (yeah nigga, I said Cali) the accents are different..

2) EVERYONE ON THE PLANET HAS AN ACCENT, we all sound different to different people.... if you live in Cali, you'd never notice the accent until you went to, for example, New York...

3) I say Cali..... most of the folks I know say Cali.... hell, quite a few of us still call it Killa Cali... but locals usually refer to their specific area (ie, Yay Area, L.A., O.C., Diego, etc)

4) I agree with NIK, what does it matter????

yes but nobody talks about a Cali accent. On the other hand everyone knows about the New York and the Boston accents, including people who are from there. New York people know they have an accent. If there is a Cali accent it obviously isn't very noticeable or (1) we would know we have it and (2) people from other regions would be talking about it and making fun of it.
