<p>Scottish. Oh and I heard someone from an island near the Virgin Islands speak and their accent was pretty cool.</p>

<p>Really? from here it seems like you sound like Elmer Fudd…</p>
<p>I remember that LLWS with the Staten Island team. Was last year SI or the Bronx? I remember all them being Italian, but then I remember a few years back, the Staten Island team was down 1-0 in the 6th inning, and they had the coach mic’d up and talking to his team on the bench before the final inning started and before they cut away to commercial and he guys “C’mon guys! We got Vinny, Joey, and Tommy due up, all we need is one run!” and then one of the kids in his high, unpuberitized voice goes “Yeah! One f**kin’ run!” and the coach slapped him. It was on live TV…:D</p>
<p>Hmm we’ve had this discussion before. Unfortunately I have not heard many European accents and I can’t distinguish between American accents. But I like British accents and slight American accents (can’t tell which type tho!) and educated Indian accents.</p>
<p>I like Welsh accents, and sometimes British and Jamaican accents.</p>
<p>Wow I’m surprised at the lack of mention of Irish accents on this thread! Watch Boondock Saints and then try to tell me it’s not the sexiest thing you’ve ever heard in your life</p>

<p>Haha I guess it kinda does seem like that… but I swear it’s nowhere near as bad as Elmer Fudd! I guess it’s just hard to describe an speech impediment through text</p>
<p>Scottish and Irish, hands down.</p>
<p>Pretty sure nobody really likes Asian accents but what about the ones that are so obvious. Like in an Asian-American girl (who speaks English fluently) voice?
I’m partly Asian and my cousin who is a complete Asian but has lived in the US since she was six years old has a slight Asian accent but otherwise has a NY accent.</p>
<p>I don’t know about attractive, but Hispanic female accents are cute, Scottish accents are cool, and the Southern drawl is fun to talk in and listen to.</p>
<p>Another accent I like is what I call the “Stutheren”: the rapid-fire, contraction-heavy way of talking like “T’aint no trouble 't*'all*”</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I like Southern accents, and I’m from the South.</p>
<p>I’m somewhat of a special case though as I used to live in Florida, which is only half Southern (and getting less so every day). My family is from the South except for one of my grandparents who is half British from Illinois.</p>
<p>Accents I can’t stand: New Hampshire (though I’ve only heard a couple so maybe it’s a skewed sample) and Valley Girl <em>shudder</em>.</p>
<p>The second most annoying sound on earth is someone with a Valley Girl accent talking down to little kids.</p>
<p>Some English accents. I suppose it depends on region.
Irish. And Italian. </p>
<p>Accents that I detest: The Jersey accent. The Bronx accent. General Asian accents. Some of the heavier Australian accents. The Southern accent and general country accent.<br>
Oh, and the Midwest accent.</p>
<p>It might be because I was just in Europe a couple of days ago, but British accents are always pretty attractive.</p>
<p>lol accents can be a powerful tool in getting a girl/guy. A loser from Britain could probably get any British-accent-loving/any girl in the US, and a loser from the US could probably get any girl in an Asian country. (Well, besides the fact that he’s white, which also seems to be a puzzling fetish of many Asian people in Asia)</p>
<p>Spanish 10char</p>
<p>Australian.</p>
<p>definitely British, but Australian or Russian also sound attractive.</p>
<p>British, definitely!</p>
<p>Now the next question is, is there a link between the accents a person likes and that person’s own accent?</p>
