I'd beg to differ with German being the worst--the accent I hate most is Ulster (Northern Ireland). It's very harsh. The southern Irish accent is much softer. Some South Africans (those who speak Afrikaans, I'd say) also have an ugly accent, IMHO, too.
BTW, American girls seemed to really like my London accent... that's why I haven't lost it even after almost 30 years in the US.
