Aussie and southern accents are the worst.

The main reason why people think Australian accents are bad is because whenever they are imitated we are made to sound like complete degenerates.

That being said it is a pretty hybrid accent which I wish I didn't have.

This is what I sound like, haha....

The reason I don't like them is because they remind of southern accents for some reason. When people say "people" and somehow don't pronounce the "l" sound it makes me want to rage. Also, "warsh" and replacing "er" with "eh" or "ah".

^ I suppose, but I really don't think Australian accents sound much like Southern accents at all. I'd say our closest matches are New Zealand or British accents.

i love australian - irish - scottish - yorkshire - and really snob english accent

I once watched a crappy movie just because it was between a Scottish family and an Australian one ... seemed like the best plot ever

I love aussie/kiwi accents and am also quite partial to a well spoken british accent too.
