I don't think i have a Salford accent, alot of people round here think i'm rich/posh, due to that.
I never swear, either, so maybe that's why they think i'm rich lol

In Pennsylvania? I never heard that (I grew up there, sadly), though there were plenty of other cringe-worthy regionalisms like "you-uns" meaning "all of you" and "acrost" for across.

No need, I haven't lived there for years. 
And I never spoke that way meself; I was told I sounded "snooty" because I spoke proper English. Sniff.
Another Pennsylvania-ism: "iggles" for eagles, as in the famous football team, the Philadelphia Iggles

I was always more of a "Stillers" fan, myself.

It has to be western. My family is from Pittsburgh and live in Seneca...and theyre weird. Plus it takes 7 hours to get there from the Shore...and 2 from wherever the hell my mom lives this week in Ohio.

I love a manc accent! and a deep welsh one too...its a horrible accent where i live, they dont pronounce their t's and they say 'dug' instead of 'dog'. i was born and raised here( and ive took some stick here), but people ask if im northern? suits me just fine!! xx
and i must add the majority of people in my town are either chavs or slum mums!!!

My wife is from Northamptonshire, but thankfully she does not have that accent. She was born and raised in Rothwell.
Rothwell has an accent all of its own. the young uns try to speak like ali g in kettering these days!!!

it is.
My dad says it that way
and he was raised in Illinois and Killeen, Texas. I use the word raised loosely, as he was quite the wild child. But he's not a goober - he's one of the smartest, most knowledgable people I know.
Crap example, but I remember he made a (non-judgemental) reference to Quentin Crisp once and was surprised I knew who that was; I was surprised he knew lol.
*thinks of Cassius* ...but not in a weird way
