Unfortunately, American. I can't really be more specific then that, because mine is one that no one knows...

Well, I'm from Colorado. I guess that gives me an American accent? We say mountain differently than most though...so we're kinda distinguished, right?

Is a lack of an accent an American accent?
If so, I've got an American accent.

Sexy is what it is. 100% pure unadulterated audible sex. One day I am going to bottle my voice and make a fortune!

I have an East Coast American accent, but I can switch to several different accents, not many that I can do WELL, but passable. It takes a lot of practice to change accents.

Australian city combined with Northern Irish. I don't know what the fuck I sound like but everyone has their own opinion.

I don't have an accent, everyone else does.

I speak in an American monotone, but I use a lot of English expressions (BBC America FTW!).

Very mild British accent, which is odd considering that I was born in Tennessee and have only gotten as close to the UK as a really good British pub in Georgia. Still, it's there.

The wonderful and distinctive East Coast American accent. We aren't that obsessed with crabs!

Aussie. It's South Aussie though, not the grating East Coast accent :P

Stop the accent threads, seriously, this is getting ridiclous. This isn't even a discussion, it's only a list thread.

My "accent" is, I guess, Bostonian.

Slightly Canadian, although I live in the sticks, so there is a little bit of hick in there too.

Londoner, but it seems to morph depending on who I am talking to.

An Indian, a Pakistani, an Italian, another Italian, a Kenyan, a Korean, a Syrian and an Iranian all sat down at a table and tried to place my accent. Answers included the US, Canada, South Africa, England and Ireland, all because I didn't talk like Crocodile Dundee. In the end, the committee settled for Neutral.

American/Michigan and apparently Michigan's accent is to say "like" a lot.

A mix of Australian and English. I've been told I sound like an aristocratic Australian. (???)

"American", so they say. I'm pretty accent-neutral some have told me.

Fucked if I know. I have been informed it languishes between Brit, Kiwi and Australian, though exactly whic bit of that grey area is up for discussion. Ask Nuke Lassic for more detail, or possibly Doki.

American if I speak in English. Persian if I speak in Farsi, or if I change between Farsi and English within a sentence.

Canadian. Lots of "'eh"'s and "giv'er"'s.

And some newfie thrown in there when I'm pissed off.

American, I'd guess

I've been told by people from California (who had the typical surfer boy accent going) that a friend and I had New Jersey accents (we live in New Jersey)

Is there even a New Jersey accent?
