I'll agree with that up to a point. Our British friends have certainly made innumerable contributions to the world at large and to modern Western culture in particular. Brits as a group are "cool" without a doubt, but "the coolest"? Hmmm...

I'd say that depends largely upon which areas of the United States you've experienced.

Some British accents are way cool, for sure. However, there are a vast array of accents that can collectively be called "British" but which are quite separate and distinct one from another. A few of them could be considered a verbal assault on the ears of a listener, though.
