Can the average European tell the difference between American English accents? To native speakers, the Southern Accent sounds "dumb" and I was wondering if you get the same impression.

southern accent doesn't sound dumb, it's only americans that associate a southern drawl with being lower class due to social stigma

Northern accents are whiny, nasal, and pretty much unbearable for long periods.
Southern accents sound a little 'dumb', but they have novelty enough to be pleasing. And they're not nasal.

It sounds dumb to you because that's what you associated it with, probably because of your media.
We are able to tell the difference, yes.

Northern accent sounds retarded and absolutely disgusting, mid southern or top southern is best.

I can only tell apart the really obvious ones... like Eastern New England English, Southern, and North Central. Midland, Western, and Inland Northern all sound the same to me.
