  • Accents that do it for you

    You know, when you here a member of the opposite sex talk sometimes you just want to close your eyes and listen to that accent. If you don't know what I mean then get out travelling more.

    The poll is limited, so there are gross generalities and omissions, and yes it is very Euro-centric. Get over it and vote banana rather than complain about it, comprende?

      Wow, English accent at 100% so far.
      I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

            though this is not specific enough... english can be cockney, manchesteran, upper class, etc. american southern can be Missouri, plantation southern, etc. even in a single city, there's great difference... people in north philly sound much different from people in south philly (think the Rocky accent)

                A barely understandable Cockney really gets me going...

                        pretty much all of them.

                        Hell even this dutch girl speaking really turned me on. And Dutch isn't a paticularly pretty language- at least to me.

                        Even southern accents turn me on.

                        The only one's that truelly turn me off are the heavy New York/New Jersey accent and the valley girl accent (though that's more of a way of talking than an accent). Same with the gangsta speak. I hate that as well. I'm not real keen on that northern Chicago, Minnesota, Wisconsin type accents, but they aren't too bad.

                        So in summary, the only one's I don't like are New York/New Jersey, gangsta, and valley girl.

                          English. And, more specific than Southern: Georgian.

                          On the other hand, Cantonese and Vietnamese

                              Kraut accent!
                              I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.
