Is it normal to cringe when hearing a northern accent?

I don't dislike it but some of the northern east coast accents sound really angry to me. When I talk to them I have to remind myself to pay attention to words, not the tone.

But the upper midwest accent is a bit quirky and they sound like they enjoy things more. Doesn't make it true, but it will color my first impression of a person.

I hate northern english accents. They're all stupid

I'm from new York, yes we do sound angry all the time. Honestly it just amuses us, with both my cousin and best friend arguing is about 50% of our interactions but its all out of fun and endearment. If a new yorker is mad at you but has no reason to be he is probably just breaking balls and trying to have fun...either that or they just slipped out of a straight jacket.

Not all northerners sound like jersey people.
Minnesotans, all canadians I swear -_-
I'm from Cali by the way

funny because when i hear a person from the south talk all i can think is t-t-t-t-today junior! seriously though people from the south talk way to SLOW!

I'm from Michigan. I never knew most people hated our accents! lol anyways, i don't mind southern accents as long as I can understand them

Yes, I know a girl from up north, her voice is like that of a thousand screaming banshees.

I'm from Wisconsin and everybody I talk to hates my accent but I like accents they make us unique!

Lol Dappled

I hate southern accents

I am from new jersey but I don't have a new jersey accent. I don't really like it when people talk like that either but seriously not everyone from new jersey really has a jersey accent so don't assume that. (it's usually the trashy people who have that accent, but of course there are exceptions)

I make fun of that accent. :)

i like the accent. i watch cake boss, and i loved it when buddy was like "and we used GREEN fondan to look...loike FELT!" his sister's voice is annoying tho cause she screams all the time.

I have a northern English accent. I'm all stupid.

yeah it's normal to cringe, i can't stand jersey accents either -.-

What is wrong with the accent?

You're the one with the accent!

So the next IIN question will be about hating eastern and western accents? Sigh.
