Regional dialect meme

I can't be left out, so here goes ...
People say my English is more American than anything else, I think it's a mixture of Greek, Hungarian, American and very little British, but all this only shows when I speak for a little longer than what is on this video (plus when I'm not told what to say).




It's funny how I HATE watching and hearing myself, but at the same time I'm the worst exhibitionist out there. Contradictions. Story of my life ...

Here is the list of words to be pronounced and questions to be answered:

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, 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?
