I hate the northern accent. Derry is AWFUL. "CYYYYEEAAARRRRRR" (car), "GGGYYYEEEEEEEEEEERRRRLLLS" (girls). Brutal. Hideous. Ballymena and other culchie hell holes are also bad. "Hai bai, quare oul shappin centre in ballymena hai". AWFUL!

If I didnt know better I would think you were trying to flirt with me!

How you can stand that accent is beyond me. It's hideous. "Quare oul se' of alloy wheeeeeels ye have on thon tractaar ther hai bai!"

Personally I have a sort of Craigavon accent, but I'm constantly mistaken for being from Belfast as it's not THAT different.
