At my job, I have people tell me they love they way I talk, because I have the typical southern accent. What accent do you love, and why?

I don't say tars, but ya'll is in my vocabulary every day, even though I know it's not perfect. For some reason, I take the "G" off, nothing is nothin, you get it.

I like a good southern drawl. I like it because it is so sweet to my ears compared to the machine gun speech of Ney Yorkers/New Joiseonites. In these days and times nothing is so important that you have to say it so fast that only people on an equalivent amount of "Speed" can understand it.

For comparative purposes:
Have you heard those jokes about the sixty minute man, whose ardor only lasts about that long? Okay, I knew you had. Now, how about the 10 second New Yorker? Wow, he is finished, dressed and out the door before you can get your head off of the pillow. So which one turns you on? Let me suggest there is one you haven't tried...
The Southerner who is still laying there rubbing your back and whispering sweet nothings to you, real slow and cuddley like.

I also choose southern drawl Gals over the Joisey ClackataClackataClackataClackataClack and whine
any day. Been there; done that.

Spanish cuz you can still make out what they're saying. Cajun is pretty cool too, like the way my girlfriend Iris & her relatives talk.
