It really depends on the person talking, if i like their accent or not. Some peoples accents just make everything they say sound nice and warm...
Personally I love the irish accent, mostly because I have just barely enough irish blood to make me sunburn in 10 minutes and im jealous.
My history teacher was full blood irish and told us stories about people being able to tell his family name and exactly where he was from just by the way he talked. I just think that is soo cool. Im sure other places are like that too, but i dont know about it.
I also like a brooklyn accent just because its one of the most dramatic american accents I've heard, and its fun to read for some reason.

Texans on the other hand.. *shudder*. Here in CO, you have a texan accent and you are automatically a rich, RV dwelling, yard sale lurking, old prude who can't drive... but thats just because all the tourists we get are from Texas, and who really enjoys tourists??

I don't think I have an accent, Im smack dab in the middle of the country where everything kinda got mixed up and so we just...talk. of course the lack of accent is in a way an accent, but still, im a little sad i just speak plain old "american" english!
