Voice meme

I wanted to do this cause it's been around and I love pronunciation stuff and linguistics and guh.
But then this happened. Uhhhh.



REGIONAL VOICE MEME:

Say these words:


Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting Image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught

Now answer these questions:

What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
What is the bug that when you touch it, curls into a ball?
What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
What do you call gym shoes?
What do you say to address a group of people?
What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs?
What do you call your grandparents?
What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?
What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?
What is the thing you change the TV channel with?

That's probably not how real people pronounce it. Or maybe it is.
But I wouldn't trust anything I say. :D

Reginald is obviously a big fan of Ed Norton's schizo character in "Primal Fear." Don't cut me, Reginald! (but you are still stinky. Why you so stinky? *running and hiding*)
