Do you let others or things annoy you when travelling?
Or do you just ignore it.

If not, post examples

1. Americans asking questions in a museum (it will be a moronically stupid child level question of ignorance).
2. French/Dutch accent is heard nearby
3. Queue skipping

If it's outside it doesn't matter, I just move away and avoid masses of people anyway. It's really bad if you can't escape and worst experience was being stuck in a cable car with american tourists (loud) for 20 minutes and once in an elevator with french tourist for 30 seconds.

>>2644997
>Queue skipping
In general or paying a little to skip long queues at museums and tourist destinations?
I do the latter all the time, there is no way that I will stand an hour or so in the sun with all the other plebs only to be able to buy an entrance ticket

>>2644997

There there, one day you will realise that those people bought their tickets in advance.

The only ones that get me are:
-LGBTQP american people, they are obnoxious and intrusive (and don't exist elsewhere fyi)

-4/10 bitches travelling with their boyfriends and who will act very agressively towards everyone around. They also think they are the elite of instagram/jet set people while flying coach. I guess those dumb bitches never get out of their town otherwhise, or maybe they are particularly hot in their village... idk, i seem to meet this kind everywhere. The dudes they travel with always seem to be cool/passive.

There are gays in Europe but unless it's a designated gay place they don't go around shouting loudly "Wow, i would so much suck the dick of that statue!", attention whoring and wearing a tank top and platform shoes while in a museum. But, that's ok if there's families around because "We in a foreign country, no one understands American, right?! XD".
I could back up what i'm saying with photos but i don't want to doxx people.

The obsession with america is so fucking annoying it wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't their entire understanding of the US being that of "thing I saw on movie and LA/NYC is all the usa."

I could go on but man there is seriously nothing that gets under my skin than sitting at a bar to relax after a days work and then getting some euro needing to tell me how the US should be after learning I am a burger. Like it's so fucking unreal because you can see their demeanor change after explaining you're US based to just want and 'just ask you something real quick...' Do you haven't been to the USA if you only say LA and NYC for 2 weeks. If I said "Oh yeah man been all about the UK been to london for a few times... Why is HS2 so late? If I was in charge I'd .... " I'd get seen a a big fat stupid mutt and told off, but a euro explaining the US to me? oh nononoo that's how it should be!

I don’t let things slide but I’m a hot head sometimes. Some Korean business man purposefully bumped into me in Taipei. I shoulder checked him back and told him I’d fuck him up. Pussy didn’t say shit. I fucking hate Koreans.
>>
>>2645222

The anti-american banter is cringe but if you think about it, our shit is rubbed in their faces 24/7. Nearly every sign in Europe is in English and it's not because of the UK. Fast food everywhere in cities now, and all they listen to is our music and consume our media. They are 'obsessed' only because America is in the face and down their throat everywhere. So I don't really get upset, just roll my eyes - I can understand their sentiments.

When narcissists on a plane:
>break the rules (e.g., moving seats);
>make noise;
>get up before the plane has arrived at the gate;
>call the flight attendant when the plane is delayed as if the flight attendant could make sure they make their connection;
>in cases of delay, get up and leave the plane even though the flight attendants said to let people with tight connections go first

Also, delays + missed connections in general suck; completely ruin day and lose a day off.

Look, all I'm saying is I've lived out of a backpack for a month in a hostel, and I've stayed at 5 star resorts. Something I don't think a lot of travelers realize, until they experience it personally, is that your accommodations can be just as much a part of the trip as where you go / what you see. There are vacations that I barely remember the destination, but will always remember the hotel or resort.
I'm all for people getting out there and traveling with what they have, but don't make a thing about it, you know? We get it, you're young and poor and traveling - so you have to dress like shit and carry all your belongings on your back? Even when I was broke, I never did that - I kept my things where I was staying like a normal human being and only went out with what I needed for the day.

I stayed at the Ritz in Tokyo. It was quite nice. It was memorable. But so was the 10$/night shitholes I stayed in too because or the memories I made. The places I went to because those 10$ shitholes were in close proximity to other spots. Paying hundreds of dollars a night at 5 star/luxury resorts in foreign countries is generally retarded. It's the same manufactured bullshit. I can stay at luxury destinations in my home country, why do I need to fly for 12 hours to do the same thing I can do at home? I travel to travel, not stay in a hotel no matter how nice it is.
>>
>>2645573
Travelers realize it very much, they don't do it because they aren't privileged like you. Hotels can easily become the single most expensive thing about traveling, even above the plane ticket cost.

He ran into me from behind. I then shoulder checked him harder from behind. I was at Taipei 101 and think security caught me doing it as I could see some of them staring at me and walking near me at some points. They didn't say anything to me though. Previously I made eye contact and smiled with him and his business associates taking the tour. Even though I can't understand Korean I could tell they were talking shit about me.

There is nothing more annoying than being american and having anglo's sit next to you and clearly have no clue about what the US is like and just HAVE to bring it up. Talk about the country you are in? pfft nah. Want to talk about hobbies or something? nope boring.

Everyone hates americans until someone breaks out a war like in russia or annexs shit like china, then wants to know how the US is going to fix it.

I don't give 2 fucks if people hate the US fine stay out of it. I hate, absolutely HATE when someone who might have done 1 trip to the US, and watch some news segments; then INSTANTLY could be the president to fix all the things. What things? just all of them!

Yet if you try to make any observations about their country, culture, and so on; STUPID MUTT DOESN'T KNOW NUFFIN! I'm fine if we all want to play on the same playing field but man, sure doesn't feel like it.

Even the worst hotels I have stayed at is nothing compared to the shit dealt with in a dorm. It took me until I was almost 30 to realize it's not worth traveling if you're either tired all the time or needing to stay in bed until 10am like every other person in a dorm does to make up for the shitty interrupted sleep.
>>2647702
By 30 men should be able to afford a room to themselves, not be mingling in a dorm room with teens and 20 something brokies traveling on mommy and daddy money. It's ok for women to do it because they're retards usually on their Eat, Pray, Love phase.
>>
>>2648310
And everyone would be fine with that however it's not a give/take situation here. You basically can't do any 'banter' back to them without becoming irate or inanely defensive about everything and how 'yank doesn't know anything'. I'd be fine with it if we could do some back and forth joshing around but that happens on only the most extreme.

They most likely live in walkable cities and have reasonable work-life balance in Europe already. Americans like WFH because they are just being introduced in what life should be like and had no idea what difference it would make.

You probably walk to the other side of the street when you see a black person because you are too much of a pussy faggot and people can sense it

>demands we do something about taiwan/hong kong or ukraine the next minute

Yes because every European thinks the exact same way and has the exact same opinion, right?

>I could go on but man there is seriously nothing that gets under my skin than sitting at a bar to relax after a days work and then getting some euro needing to tell me how the US should be after learning I am a burger

You're just making up a person. There's no way that actually happens in real life. Europeans are too polite to talk shit about America in person and if you do, they are opening up criticism of Europe too but you are too autistic to understand subtext and body language.

Nah, in my experience no one hates America the way they say they do. Most of the world hardly ever encounters Americans since only half the population even has a passport, and those that do usually just go to Canada or the Caribbean. Mostly all Americans who go to anywhere in Europe besides Paris/Rome are usually really decent... Brits and Aussies on the otherhand are the actual manifestation of the ugly American stereotype.

So you admit there is a disparity of bus travel between parts of the city yet you insist it's totally fine? And I live in the Northeast and don't drive; I will tell you they are shit and I'd rather Uber or take the subway.

Then it's not a problem. So you agree with me.

Why would a woman, let alone, ANYONE, go to Skid Row? It was literally created as a containment zone a hundred years ago.

You have autism and it shows. Euros naturally speak in banter and if you take it seriously, you are a sperg. All you have to do is talk shit about their country and they will laugh. Get tested for your autismo.

Yeah man, same in europe. I dare you to take a bus in Albania or serbia, and then compare it to the bus service in Bergen norway. Going to be a difference in quality regardless.

>Then it's not a problem.
I think most people would want others to have healthcare but those who chose not to doesn't make the place shit.

>That's pretty good.
Until you realize that's only like London->NYC not the stops in between, or hotel costs for those places. Not to mention the disparity in pay.

>Why would a woman, let alone, ANYONE, go to Skid Row?
I've done greyhound from that station more times than I can count, the amount of shitty euro's hanging out after a shit week in LA trying to 'back pack' through america is high. I have no way to explain it outside of seeing it in person.

>You have autism and it shows.
Anon my only post was how I hate how shitty things are when euros rag on shit, my entire post wasn't that all euro's do that but many do. Especially anglo's. You went full autismo mode first and people just responding to it.

Generally I get annoyed by other tourists, when they don't observe the social norms of whatever country they're in and make me look like an asshole by association. I felt this the most when I was in Japan. For example, when other tourists would talk really loudly on the train, be dicks to geisha or monks with unsolicited photos or poking fun, or one situation when two white American dudes were yelling on a quiet train because they made a mistake and got on the wrong train.

People asking me (right off the bat), "So, where are you from?". It's a loaded question. What they're really saying is: Ask me where I'm from so I can talk about myself... And even after you answer the question it's still all about how their friend or family member went to some University in the same country. And then you need to say something nice about where ever the fuck that is. But it usually turns out that the person they're referring to was actually trying to escape their bullshit hometown and never talked to anyone again after leaving. This shit goes on for 5 to 10 minutes and they NEVER even ask your name. They're more likely to ask next what you do for a living than ask your name. It's because they want to tell YOU what they do for a living. Like I give a shit. I was just having a beer and a cig and trying to relax. And now I'm hearing about Cousin Eddy who went to school in San Diego, like maybe I know him by chance.

And don't tell me this is really just strangers being nice to strangers. That's their fall-back angle. That's how they rationalize boring strangers to death every fucking place they go.

Most Western Europeans hate Americans for the dumbest reasons. It really just makes them look like pussies. Fucking Iraqis complain less about us and we recently destroyed their country. Africans are friendlier too. So are South Americans and Asians. Most Eastern Europeans too. It's hilarious coming from a well off region of the world. You'd expect that from people we recently bombed. The culture is weird too. Who the fuck immediately asks someone if they're one of the good ones and interrogates them about politics. I can't imagine someone berating a Chinese person in the US over social credit scores or anything like that. It's also hypocritical given the past history of Western Europe and the lasting presence of France, for example, in Africa. Many Western Europeans have goldfish brains and many Brits don't realize they had an empire that was partly responsible for a lot of what happened. It's borderline delusional how elitist some Western Europeans are. Being cultured means being from whatever country they're from and everyone else is borderline subhuman. If thet view Americans that way, then they must think the 3rd world are subhuman.

On the plane they couldn't figure out how to sit down and stay seated, like ants in their pants. And the overheads all filled with their puffy jackets.

Holy shit this is an astoundingly abnormal way of thinking.

You didn't really take in anything I wrote though, let's try again. Would you be "Hassled" by a Belgian Tourist asking you a question? In a non tourist "no talking zone"? You're a top Redditors so you think you're being thoughtful and politically correct by protecting third worlders but in reality you're treating them like they're different (sub human even), like they can't interact with people like we do and enjoy it, express their personalities, have a desire to engage in meaningful conversation.

>>
>>2651999
your definition of "hassle" makes me think you are interaction adverse outside of tourist zones or some situation where the person is paid to specifically deal with foreigners and respond in a "the customer is alright right" sort of manner. You get the real interactions chatting with people in non tourist areas. You make the issue black and white in a way that doesn't comport with anyone who has a sense of when to approach people, which, again, makes me suspect you have some issue in initiating and choosing interactions. If someone if busy and clearly in a sour mood or haste, I am going to let that person carry on. But if it's someone clearly relaxing or not in a rush, I can chat them up. It seems you may have had a bad experience or many and now want to project that on to anyone who has the courage and enthusiasm to interact with people not paid to deal with his shit. That's a you problem
>>
>>2652048

Apart from that last faggy line you are right on the money, I didn't think about the possibility anon doesn't interact well with people so their view is very warped.

For a normal person it's less about the location but signs and body language, you can "hassle someone" by the Eiffel Tower if it's not appropriate, nothing to do with tourist locations, you don't own people there, they aren't part of your package deal just because they're around haha.
