Your Linguistic Profile:
75% General American English
15% Upper Midwestern
10% Yankee
10% Spanish
5% Cursing

by the way, caramel has 1 syllable...MMMMMMMM....

and another linguistic note, when something belongs to "you guys", I say "you guyses" as in "You guyses house is on fire." Everyone tells me that its just "you guys". What do you think?
