Maybe... but I think it's more like this:

Random people always comment that I sound french (don't know why/how 'cause I have zero french origin whatsoever)

And I know I am sexy

So it follows, french accent must be sexy..

I have the non-accent accent Anglicized second-gen Canadian immigrants have, which basically could come from anywhere in Canada or much of the northern parts of the United States. I doubt it would have any special appeal, but I can enunciate most any phoneme or morpheme effectively and without affectation. It's not beautiful, but it's utilitarian.

I'm ashamed to admit this, but I lost 90% interest in a university course because the instructor had a thick Indian accent. I can't really complain about accented English, all things being as they are, but it still pisses me off when I need to understand someone and I just can't make it out what they're saying. A lot of recent immigrants get call centre jobs for instance, or work for help hot-lines and the like - asking multiple times for clarification is just painful.

I doubt you really know what a thick Indian accent is

This is not an exaggeration (though it is pretty damn hilarious), there are many teachers with this kind of accent and often their grammar is even more atrocious.
Some instructors here have such a bad accent that even most of us Indians can't understand them. Their classes typically turn into a gigglefest and nobody manages to learn shit.

There's like infinite reasons for some people to commit suicide

There are no such reasons. It's a universal fact. Anyone who doesn't know this...

People who try to justify suicide.

It's hard enough to handle group reports, with a team of people with different schedules and courses it's becomes impossible.

My glasses just broke, I don't have any spares (they're expensive!), and I have so much going on the next couple of days that I'm not going to have time to go to the opticians before Friday evening - assuming I can get an appointment then. At least I can see without them, if not all that well, but reading all the little kanji in my Japanese classes is hard enough normally, let alone now $:-\$

Ah well, I should've gone to the opticians to get new ones ages ago anyway, so I guess it's my own fault.

Get your eyes tested and then buy the glasses online. I got 4 pairs for less than £40 and they came with anti glare as standard.

And having extremely cold hands ><

Idiots altering names of places on Maps. If they can't pronounce it, shut up. Don't change the name as you wish.
