The British accent hurts my ears. I like American, then Aussie, and then English with the sultry Spanish accent.

I have a lot of British friends and they all speak more properly and have a bigger vocabulary than almost Americans.

Yup. There have been about 20 or so Brits that have come over here from our UK office for medium-length visits (3 to 6 months on average). Some have chosen to stay permanently.

They're from all over, but mostly from Manchester and Bath so they all have wildly different accents and slang. It's cool to hear the drastic differences in the way they speak knowing they're only scattered around a country roughly the size of Oregon.

And nobody speaks like the BBC. The first thing that I heard in this country was Pakistani Mancunian.

I am used to the "lower class accents" after spending 4 years in one of the ghettos of Manchester (or, Gunchester, as some here call it).
