ok well then be quiet and carry on.
I haven't seen the series, but the movie was set in Minnesota and only named Fargo for the opening scene. And there are rural Minnesotans that have that sort of accent. The Swedish comment fits, because I've heard it said the unique accents of Minnesota and Wisconsin are often explained by Scandinavian ancestery


Also this. Many of us Wisconsinites/Minnesotans are Svvveeeeeeedes.
*clears throat*

I believe I can supply some insight here.

I was born in North Dakota.

I have lived in Fargo (I was a wee thing and didn't live there for long, but still).

I've lived in rural areas (South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin) for a fair amount of my life.

While I agree that the actors sometimes overextend, they're really not that far off. Most members of my extended family have pretty noticeable "Minnesota" accents. They're regional. They exist.

And while I might cringe at the way they come off on television, I also internally cringe during every family reunion, so....

so why are the accents in Fargo so horribly wrong?


I don't know, Nexxy, why don't you take a field trip down to Fargo (or Roseau/Bemidji, I think it's worse there) and get a real understanding of the accent. Then you can revisit your claims and we can talk more!
But my mama told me I could be anything I wanted! :<


Your mother lied.
You don't.

It's a natural thing.

So if you don't have it,

You're probably never will.

I think a skydiving orgy is more of an "act" or "event" than a "relationship."
