I hate Southern accents, which is why it irks me so that I have one.

I absolutly love the Irish accent.
British accents.
Ansem... did YOU just type the word "kewl" in that topic post?
I like the accent of an Australian girl I work with, wish I had one. Oddly though I don't enjoy listening to the men at all.
I'm from the American midwest, Missouri to be exact. I think that everybody has an accent, no matter where they're from. I run into people from Kansas every day, and notice a few differences in their accent...and they don't live that far away. I notice differences even in where people come from within the same city, never mind different coasts. I happen to love hearing the different speech patterns and oddball colloquialisms from different places...though I did get the giggles when a friend from Boston suggested I have a "potty on the potio" (party on the patio)...I really had to bite my toung to keep from saying that I'd prefer to keep the potty in the bathroom. Confusions like that are always funny to me.

Stupid weegie accents are quite funny. Yorkshire accents are definitely the best, along wiv my awesome hull accent.
Orlando and Tampa are the only cities I've seen of Florida, and everyone sounded either old, or accentless... their voices sounded like mine.Originally Posted by Reles With A Hat
Midwesterners sound so bland... we have no elongated vowels, we have no hard letters, we have no d or g in random places... so bland...
I have a hybrid of an americani-ish/ aussie accent, filos naturally have an american accent but ive been living downunder for 17 years out of my 18 years of existance so u could notice more of an aussie accent so yeah, it just friggen sounds weird ok!
accents though are pretty cool! really facsinated on how it all got started

Jacksonville, Tallahassee, Pensacola, you'll find alot more southern accents, being so close to Georgia and Alabama. Tampa, Orlando, Miami, not a lot of southern draws. Central and South Florida also have a lot more transplants than anywhere else in Florida.
Incidentally, I love most European and Austrailian accents.
Aussie accents makes me giggly and very HOT!
Sunderland and Newcastle have slight different accents XD.
I don't understand, two cities near eachother sound slightly different.

I appreciate different accents and dialects, too.
I have a very distinct accent. Lets just say I don't speak the way I type,
