Some people are difficult to understand, but some accents.... some accents just make me laugh. I can't help it, they just sound odd.

Like people from Birmingham. They (no offence to them) generally sound like they're lost in thought.

My accent is not really a proper Manchester one. it's more of a general British. xD It's hard to explain. But I definitely don't speak much slang. Innit.

That's not Australian. It's just proper English.

Also, I think less and fewer should be added to this list as people rarely use them properly.

You could of been a lot nicer then to post this mean picture. Some people just have a hard time with grammar there trying I promise but your discouraging them from learning by having such a negative affect. Its hard to learn English and all of it's strange rules.

I'll admit that when people ask me what languages I speak I usually say none. At least, none of them well.

From my observation, "could of" "would of" "should of" are typically used by Brits, while "its" and "your" are used by Americans.

Your observations are wrong.
A casual stroll through any Internet forum dictates otherwise.

At least you got that one right. I want to strangle Americans when they say "I could care less".
