Really? I've never heard that one before. I like all accents but there's always some little thing about them that annoys me.

I'm not trying to offend anyone but I can't listen to the Wisconsin accent for an extended period of time but it really depends on the person's voice, I hate the way a lot of Southerners say words like "oil" (all) & "life" (laf), I hate the old NY/NJ accent "doidy-doid stweet" luckily I don't hear it anymore, I can say something about all accents though lol.

I love Upper Midwest accents: Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin, and the U.P. Ya, you betcha, doncha' know!

My least favorite accent is a Southern accent. Nothing against Southerners, I'm just not a fan of the sound.

I don't like most Southern accents; I kind of like the Tennessee accent, like Dolly Parton's. Virginia's isn't so bad, either. I also don't like the Boston/RI accent, although that is probably more due to that stupid show "Family Guy" than anything else.
