There isn't really such thing as a 'British' accent, there are dozens of different ones in Britain!

Ah i apologize!! I always seem to forget that there are multiple british accents! The one i was refrencing would probably be a Londoner(?) Accent since i based all my prefrences on people i have actually met and the people i based said prefrence on said they were from London ^^'

I don't mean to sound 'awkward' but there are actually many different accents within London itself! Perhaps you mean the Hugh Grant 'floppish' accent? This seams to be an accent most people around the world associate with British (despite being an accent spoken by a small percentage of 'Brits'), there is a sort of 'standard' London accent referred to as 'Estuary English' (my accent apparently) which has similarities to Cockney but much softer, then there is Cockney accent which has migrated out into Essex, there are also English accents in London that have came about thanks to immigration where English born Londoners have been affected by their parents accents.

Yuck, you like the Okie accent?
Which Canadian accent? I assume you mean the stereotypical one like the one in Manitoba? I like that one too.
Basically, my list would be:
Likes:
German
Canadian (Manitoba, Ontario)
Spanish (Cuban)
Irish. Love Irish accents!
Russian
Most British accents although I couldn't tell you where they were from.
New York City (these can vary slightly but are basically the same)
Neutral:
French
Spanish (Mexican)
General American, Southern Ontario, California. All are basically the same with a few minor differences.
Dislike. No disrespect, just personal preference to my ears:
Australian
African American Vernacular English. As a Black American, this may not sound right but, it is what it is.
Almost all Southern US accents.
That Northern Cities vowel shift thing.
Boston
