    @Myhaloslipped, SAME for Boston and Southern Drawl, but I have to add British and Scottish. Accents that annoy me are German (maybe because that's what I am!) and Indian.

    The other day I was struggling with my luggage and suddenly this angelic man (who was mighty handsome) came running towards offering help with a sexy french accent. I melted and nearly asked him to marry me!

    Least favorite: Portuguese spoken in Brazil. To me it sounded like a nation with blocked noses ...sorry :(

    Lol, I know what you mean. German accents often make me feel like the person speaking is angry with me. I am pretty accustomed to the Indian accent because my best friend growing up was half Indian. I got so used to being around her mother and just learned to understand what she was saying after a while.

    The only accent that makes my skin turn is the Welch accent. No idea why, it just makes me want to throttle the person using it lol

    Crazy, I have never really heard that people love the New Zealand accent until recently, even when I went to America lol. People thought I was from England weirdly.

    I love any UK accent, any American accent except Boston and New Jersey, Californian is good but not remarkable, but still good as long as you aren't a Valley girl hehe.

    I really dislike Aussie accents yes they are different to ours, some of them, the twangy ones like Crocodile Dundee ewww
    I love Norwegian accents,so cute!
    French, German, Austrian, Danish, Jamaican, Samoan...there are quite a few I love.
