Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
WWDTM: Kevin O'Leary

According to the Boston Globe, the famous Boston accent is dying out.

Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
WWDTM: Kevin O'Leary

One reason, apparently, for the accent's decline is that many adults have intentionally dropped their Boston accents for professional reasons.

They're afraid that accent doesn't say, I'm executive material, and instead says, I'm about to rob a bank with my little brother.

If they're going to drop the Boston accent, they have to drop everything else that goes with it, right?

We should point out, though, if you open the back door, that's not called burping.
