Tangier Island, VA - accent

I needed to listen to some of it a few times, but it is pretty understandable once you get the hang of it.

But the reason I responded. A question I've always had. What's the dialect of Nicolas Cage? I always find is sounds pretty cool.

Cageian. Not to be confused with Cajun.

That does not make me xenophobic, either.

I didn't say you were xenophobic. I was just pointing out that you may be in the minority in finding it ugly.

Just because aesthetics is a local standard (similar to assigning labels "left"/"right"), doesn't make it any less true

I don't follow this. Left and right are local phenomena?

He doesn't have an accent, just a very distinctive personal way of speaking, like Jimmy Stewart or John Wayne.
