Woody510 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 ,Apr 4 2008, 13:26] Gosh, it wasn't a true claim that's why I said "I think". Stop trying to be clever, and for once, let this topic be a nice pleasant one shall we? Go easy on all the "sly" comments.. //MenaceMovies Very adult of you. Still, you'll never be half the man your mother was. Woody, I quite like the southern states accent. It's all Forrest Gump, I think it sounds pretty laid back and chilled out. well now that you've reminded me of forest gump i think i may have to retract my prior statement.....except the part about long island haha. I think my distaste for southern accents comes from the fact that I subconciously associate the sound of it with conservative patriotic republican redneck assholes. So yeah, I guess I have to acknowlege my ignorance on that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal40000 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 i like EURO girls speaking english ( not english girls ) cuz its so f*cking hot, i get a boner jsut off the accent. anyway, my accent is neutral-english, if u asked anyone where i lived in england they probably would have no idea as im 1/2 scottish 1/2 ??? thats probably why if i had a choice of accent it would be english speaking .. (one of below) -mexican/spanish -italian -new jersey american i HATE.. -english city accent, i really feel like choking people when they speak with there yorkshrie accent, and also chav accents chav - "YA GEWING TO THE PEWIL UP THU DEKKI BAB ??!?!" english - "are you going the pool in the town centre babe ?" *notice* chavs always have slang names for any location, such as parks, area's they talk sh*t in, town center's etc.. worst accent ever.

I'm done discussing things with you, your last two posts have been spam, and you're fairly quick off the mark with the insults yourself, by the look of things. You took one statement of mine and seem to be attempting to turn it into some vendetta, which I'm not particularly interested in participating in. If you want to have a pop at me, PM me, don't spam up your own topic. Themanwiththeplan, that was really interesting. I like that Brits like the Irish accent most, considering the strife there's been between the two races over the last, well, forever. My girlfriend's Irish-born, but lost the accent; she gets it back when she visits her Dad over there. It's a great accent, full of charm and charisma.

Jay Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I love Canadian, French and Irish accents. Some Eastern European ones too. Ones I can't stand are English ones like Vicky Pollard. Blah. And Kiwi accents. Can't stop laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraxxuz Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 (edited) Moved to the UAE in January, many accents over here: Arabic accents while speaking English are pretty nice, seem to over-emphasise different sounds, in a good way, especially when surprised . Well the Arab women I have spoken to . Can't beat the Arab Ford Dealer though, she was putting on an Aussie accent and saying bugger and the lot . Don't like, Indian, they speak way too fast.

You're ruining your thread by littering it with pointless insults being thrown back and forth. And to be quite honest, i found this thread really interesting, and for that i commend you, but you're more than likely turning people away from it, or at least taking away from it's greater means with all this senseless bitching. I'm not trying to offend you, I'm just trying to get the point that i believe stuff is trying to get through to you through. I think it's pretty obvious he doesn't want to argue with you anymore.

Mr. Someguy Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 My favorites are: Scottish Australian Jamaican Russian German The only one I can think of that I don't like is French, it just doesn't sound good in English for some reason. Oh yea, and Chinese when you can't understand them and you have to think about every word they said to try to figure out the sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsuroki Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I'm not going to go too deep into this, so I'm just going to touch on American accents. • Texas and New Jersey / New York accents are my top two favourites from the US. • The "southern drawl" of Missouri / South Carolina / Kentucky / whatever irritates me.
