tangier island

A small island off the east coast of Virginia with a population of about 500 people. Completely surrounded by water, the only way to get there is by a boat or ferry. They people who live on the island have a very strong English accent and talk "backwards". For example, if you saw a pretty girl, instead of saying "she's pretty!", you would say "she's ugly!"
