Where is British?
And all Americans have different accents, we're a country of all differnt cultures and people, Not everyone talks alike
Id vote for Brits having the coolest accent. The way The Beatles talked was awesome, aswell as Oasis

how funny you divide small countries and separate cities like Cork, Manchester, and Chicago and yet consider a whole continent as one, or even worse, have one general category for the US and ignore a whole bunch of countries

I don't think i'd be able to write out every american accent as the noise it would stimulate in my mind would blow my ears off

Do Yanks find their accent as annoying as everyone else does? after living here for a few years now everytime I happen to come across people from the USA and especially teenage girls their accents really begin to bug me. Although oddly enough nearly every Brit I speak to says they love my accent. I guess that's the southern draw for you.

oh ya if I had to pick off your list I voted Spanish, although I mean in the south American vein more than actual Spain.

Scottish accents would be strong contenders for that one

Oh I think that most Americans are way easier to understand than Brits! The accentuation on words is so different.
