What accents (I hope I spelt that properly) do you find
either annoying or funny. Californian "dude" accent can be VERy annoying, ESPECIALLY when people try to impersonate it. "My Name is Earl" made me laugh at the Sweish accent, and Groundskeeper Willie can make me laugh at the Scottish accent. Altough, I shouldn't complain, I talk faster than Eddie Murphy. |

my cousins, who live in ny, have this accent... it's not an asian accent, but it's not exactly a newyorker accent, either.
but i've noticed that ALL korean teens who go to church speak this way. it's SO ANNOYING. let's just call it a 'korean accent'. korean accents are so moothereffing annoying. |

"Hahaha, did you hear that? He said 'paint.' Heh, let's go have a smoke, and laugh about this for half an hour." Snicker. |

^ Props for recognizing it. It's spelled Russell.
Anyway, hey idiot kids, he asked what accents you find funny or annoying. Not hot. There are other threads on that. I don't know if the mods want to just merge them. |

Also, a kid in my class has a VERY annoying accent. he has an English type accent, and he's from ireland, and his parents are from Ireland. he's an odd kid, but I won't get into that just right now.

I find it rude that people make fun of kids with accents.
It's not their fault the just are from a different country w/ a different language. Like today this spanish girl was trying to say the name Deon (pronounced Dee on) and it came out Dee lan. Then all these kids started mocking her. I'm like shut up it's not her fault. And some other kid was saying this girl from Iran was stupid so I told them to back off that she was really smart which she was. I can't beleive how people can be so prejudice ![]() |

I can't believe no one has said this, but I can't stand that "middle-of-no-where/grew-up-on-a-farm" accent found in southern Oklahoma, northern and western Texas, and all of Arkansas. I grew up in Arkansas and when I moved to Tulsa everyone made fun of me, and it just sorta went away over time. Now I hate to hear anyone (including my mom) talk like that.

Chinese accents.
We had a chinese substitute for our A.P. algebra class in 7th grade. She was there for about a month because our teachers wife had a kid or something. We didn't know if she was saying "55" or "that's fine". :( |
