I like folk from New Zealand, they come from a great country.
But I dislike the Kiwi accent, often mistaken or confused with the Australian accent, its actually streets apart.
With a knack of destroying the English language by replacing all vowels inappropriately with other vowels, the result is a garbled mess.
Worst still, a Kiwi can be heard above a crowd of non-Kiwis, such is the infuriating nature of this accent, like a high frequency dog whistle, just so painful to hear.
I'm with you..I hate the accent. It seems to me to be very 'low brow'. It hurts my ears and my brain.
