I'm horrible with recognizing and imitating accents.
Australian and English accents are totally different! And I hate it when American movies/ television programs try to imitate the Australian accent and it turns out sounding like a weird hybrid of English/ New Zealandish/ South African. I was on Xbox live with my friend a couple of weeks ago and whenever we spoke everyone called us "Britons." We are 10562 miles away from the UK! I wonder if there will ever be a day where Australia is considered its own country with its own merits.

That being said, I really can't tell different American accents apart other than southern ones and New York ones maybe.
