QotD: Talk To Me
What's your favorite foreign accent?
This one's easy -- British! How do they always manage to make everything sound so damn sophisticated? They could say, "Pardon me, I farted." and it would sound fantastic. And the worst part about it is that I can never sound like that unless I want to be a poser like Madonna. No, I'm stuck with my nasal Chicago accent, which isn't half bad, either.

As an english person, i must say i agree! but my favourite british accent is (don't want to appear a snob here...) that cut-glass middle-class accent as demonstrated by rachel weisz or hugh grant. What i don't find attractive (no offence) is the cockney accent! i like manhattan accents, i probably like chicago accents (but i can't recall what they sound like), and i think southern drawls sound really cool!
