The best part of being an American is watching the rest of the world complain about us while at the same time possessing an irresistible hunger for our culture. As for language, I agree that The extreme Appalachian dialects can be a little hard to understand even if you're familiar with them. I spent most of my summers as a kid and teenager in the middle of West Virginia and I will still occasionally meet someone, usually an older man, with an accent so thick I could only make out the occasional word or two. In person you can gently understand what they're trying to tell you, but like over the phone sometimes impossible. I remember once years ago I was at work and had to call one of our truck drivers to change some details with delivery. Dude's hillbilly accent was so thick I could literally get no information out of him on the phone. Once he arrived, it was pretty easy to figure out what he was saying, but the phone it was just pure mush mouth nonsense.

That is some absurd hyperbole dude unless you have some data to back it up. But, making wildly exaggerated claims is American as poo poo, so I can't judge you too harshly.
