As an American I feel like either US or UK could be considered the "normal" one, UK or AUS the "fancy" one, and US and AUS the "wildcard" (from the UK perspective).

Oh UK would definitely be the fancy one. It would need to be like a David Attenborough accent though

I'm English and my perspective is UK is both normal and fancy.
Aussie is wildcard.
US is just there because OP felt it needed to be involved for some reason.

Implying a Cockney accent isn't fancy

Australian as the fancy one??

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Fancy maybe wouldn't be the best word, perhaps exotic, but I know there's plenty of us who, depending on the Aussie, might not be able to tell the accent from a British one and just go "ooh, accent, fancy".
