Wait people pronounce shore and sure the same?
I've always said 'shor' for shore and 'sher' for sure
Y'ever been to thuh South, mah friend? We say, "Shore do, shore can and shore will." Well, at least my daddy done 'afore me. I grew up in California (born and raised), but my daddy was from Arkansas and lemme tell ya, they shore do, shore can and shore will say it like that.
Then again, they say Ahl for oil, so what can you do?
Life can be strange. Can't tell you how many times my friends kept asking me, "How come you say, 'Y'all' all the time?" At least I never said, "Warsh," for wash and both my parents did that as well as my next oldest brother. And my mom was from California, too, so it's not a dialect thang.

Eyo I grew up in Cali too
My mom's grew up on a farm out in Hemet, cali, so I got y'all and a lot of other words like that in my vocabulary
Accent is a lot more harsh than southern accent, tho. More hard 'r's, gutteral stops, and straight up removing syllables from some words
