I've never heard of "on accident".

I say by accident!

i hate 'on accident'!

"On accident" drives me crazy. My husband says it (northwest PA).

By.

Learned to speak in VT, grew up in RI.

I grew up in SoCal and said both? I always tried to say 'on accident' but my mom would always correct me to say 'by accident'

I go back an forth. I use "by" more than "on" I think.

DC...by accident.

I say "on". I was born in TX, grew up in Louisiana and now live in PA. More often I say "accidentally", though.

@Shutterbug: LOL!! Where do you live?

@Shutterbug: Ahh....you east coast livin' bees have a different language.....LOL kidding! I'm in the Midwest and I think we totally have a different language! hahah

"On accident" - CA for 6 years, AZ for the rest - and everyone I know says "on accident" as well.

@swurlygurl: i was thinking the same thing! i voted on, but i say by as well!

AZ just like @JennyLayneAZ: but I voted "By"

I was an English minor for early college and "On" makes me cringe, but I'm very OCD with language.

DH says on accident (he grew up in New York)

On accident - midwest.
