American accents that really bug you
 
Yes most of us speak English, some on this forum can even write it properly, but we all speak with at least a mild accent. Which ones drive you nuts? As a native New Yorker I have heard some brutal pronouciations(mostly from my aunt in Brooklyn), but I have to say that some Bostonians lay it on pretty thick. They get my vote.

Anyone with a twangy hick accent drives me crazy. I like east coast accents.

you're high. I spent two years in Oregon and decided that there's a wormhole in the universe that connects Oregon with Georgia. I had friends with no ties to the deep south who spoke with a southern twang. they were from medford, sweethome and crescent city, so it wasn't a regional thing,either.

If you've never been with a girl with a southern accent, well, I don't know what to say. You're missing out.

ebonic writing by asian american and white kids really sucks as well. only saving grace is that my kids will be competing with these idiots one day.
