Yeah American tourists and expats are very cringe. I understand why Europeans hate us lmao
The boomers cause the cringe desu
>>204464225>5 ways how not to be
>>204464265I've noticed that journalists/"communications" majors are among the worst at writing/communicating.
>>204464743I used to think the competency crisis was a meme, but it's really all starting to come into focus.
>>204464225Having done a lot of traveling, we are nowhere near the worst tourists. Naive and ignorant sometimes is usually our worst crime. Then you have the Brits and Aussies who treat wherever they go as their personal drunken playground / colostomy bag for vomit, the Chinese who hock loogies in public, smoke in elevators and talk way louder than they need to.We're not as good as the Japanese or some shit, but we're at worst in the middle of the pack when it comes to tourists.
>>204464225No one hates me
>>204465246This is what I figured. When one of the big complaints about American tourists is>they just tip us too much moneyyou know they're grasping at straws. I blame Charles De Gaulle. His petulant and ungrateful attitude has infected France root and stem and from there Europe.
>>204465303idk the context, but there are cultures where tipping is disrespectful
All tourists are cringe
>>204464265It's even worse when you're an ESL like me, because you don't know if it's your English skills failing or if the writer is a retard
>>204465472English standards are falling fast, my friend. Soon we'll all just be grunting at each other.
>>204464225What are any of those people even doing wrong? It just looks like they're whale watching or something.
>>204464225I'm embarrassed by the hurka Durka party that serves as the centgov's opposition. They do nothing in the parliament other than race/ religion baiting while being the biggest hypocrites that suck on the dicks of both Israel and china. Our government is problematic but we literally we have no viable alternatives.
Why is that despite our obesity numbers being similar I never see american-tier fatties here?
>>204464243American zoomers dress like shit, don't try to shift blameT. Euro
>>204465303The French actually like American tourists as they usually seem to be enjoying themselves and leave big tips. Parisian tourists are usually cunts in France and treat workers condescendingly.
>>204465544because your maximum obesity made manifest is far less obeseif you have a country where no one is a whale, anyone with a pot belly or "dad bod" would count towards the obesity classification
>>204464225I see nothing wrong here, these kinds of tourists are temporary.
>>204465782Do you get these types of people in your country?
>>204465246Brazilian tourists tend to be the worst, maybe because they're the most common tourists I had to deal with in Bolivia and in Brazil. Americans are a toned down version of Brazilian tourists, but passable. Argentinians are a toned down version of American tourists. English tourists are arrogant as fuck. Israelis are shit. Peruvians are poor, but I never had a problem with. Russians are fine. I only met a group of Chinese tourists and they were fine. Every Haitian tourist (men and women) I ever met tried to hit on me. Cubans are cool.
>>204464225The point of going on vacation is to not give a fuck what people you will never see again think about you
i never understood anti-tourist memesno i will not attempt to butcher your language, i'll use sign language and speak in english no i don't care about your obscure local customs, i'll be as respectful as i can be but i don't give a fuck about subtletiesi'll stick around for a few days to a week at most and you'll never see me again
>>204465896this, except i WILL fart on your elevators the very first chance i get. if i can't shart in the mart, i'll have to shart in the crowded elevator cart
>>204464225American tourists are 100000x more polite than European tourists
>>204465544There is obese and there is obeseWhat struck me when I visited the USA wasn't really the number of overweight people, there are plenty unfit men and women in France, it was HOW overweight they were Fatties on a scale undreamed of, mobility scooter type of shit, I had never seen that before and even had to back down a corridor at some point because a whale was proceeding and there simply wouldn't have been enough space for both of usThe obese people I see in France on a daily basis have big bellies and some man boobs and that's it, they aren't ham planets visibly struggling
>>204465544the crocs only harvest the plumpest and juiciest of the herd
>>204465974>>204465974>>204465974>>204465974
>>204466120WTF is the USA? That could be any of 50 states.
>>204466120yeah i met some canadians at a music festival and one of the chubby ones kept gawking at the giga fatties
>>204464225Those are Rubes. People from LA/NYC/BOS/CHI are viewed in a different manner.
>>204464225I get second hand embarrassment by you posting this thread every day
>>204466184Yeah, and ? Still one country isn't it so you aren't escaping from this one I'm afraid Yes I assume there will be more obese people in impoverished shithole parts of the USA than in the nicer ones but both are the USA, just like when people make fun of how many Muslims are in France even though there are parts areas that are completely fine and some that are completely overrun, still one countryI've been to Florida, NY (city), California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah
the only time I was annoyed by a tourist, it was an old german woman talking german loudly seemingly by herself in public transport.she probably thought we all speak german in turkey
>>204466201I didn't see that many to be fair, I'm not saying they were everywhere I went jin America just that I had never before and since seen that level of fat on some peopleThe medical definition of obesity actually starts kinda low so 2 countries with a similar % can still have big variations on just how far away individuals take it
>>204465261That's because they never meet you in your mom's basement.
>>204465662>Parisian tourists are usually cunts in France and treat workers condescendinglyThat's what you get when you live outside the capital city in a country that's essentially a glorified city-state.
