Tourists.

In Downtown Nashville, all the tourist wear cowboy hats and look like fucking douches.

Probably how if they've visited one place for just a day, they automatically get this idea that they know everything about it.

I live in San Francisco and tourists don't bother me one bit and we get quite a few of them. I figure they contribute to our economy, and I haven't really ever encountered any of them doing anything that could be considered douchebag-y.

Japs are cool but fucking boring in their tourist trip in Paris photographing everything they see

In New York they tend to be terrible. The young ones are cool unless they are English males, they just look doofy walking around in giant backpacks during Rush Hour.

The old ones bother me, they wonder around looking up at the skyscrapers like they have no idea people actually live and work here and have places to be. And they ask directions for the shittiest places. Once this German guy asked me how to get to the Staten Island Ferry.

And the Japs go crazy with their cameras, once I went to Easter mass at St. Pats and all the back pews were filled with Japs taking pictures of us. The Cathedral is beautiful, I could understand going in and taking pictures of it, but why wait on a long ass line for the biggest mass of the year.

how can anyone take in the sights with all those people around them, I'll never know.

Me neither, that's why I avoid tourist trips, or tourist groups like the plague. I like travelling alone or together with one other person most.

Well specifically I detest English tourists who are younger than 50.
You can tell by just one look where they are from. Beer bellies, football shirts, swollen faces and short stubbly haircuts are dead giveaways. First doing their alibi sight seeing and then go binge drinking. Basically they only go on vacation here in order to get wasted.
Ain't nothing wrong with the Japs, Italians or Americans. They are cool in my book.

Oh hey, I was just visiting San Francisco. What's up with all the shops opening up at 10-11 in the morning? I'm not exactly an early bird but I thought cities opened a bit earlier.

There are far too many americans coming up to Canada recently. Some of these idiots still act like assholes when we say we wont accept american money anymore because of how it is falling as a solid currency. And why is it they act like they cant understand us when every one of them talks like they have some mental illness? Its bad enough when they are wearing some shirt ment for someone half their size, but giving us dirty looks when they smell like the crack of a hookers ass is just wrong.

Seriously, your not welcome in canada so just fuck off to some other counrty.

Once you go east of Ontario, that completely flips. People from New England are, on average, far more literate, intelligible, in-shape, and cosmopolitan than the typical beer-swilling, fatass, MERRKAH FUCK YEAH, bible-thumping redneck from the South. Even our rednecks are smarter than their rednecks. To our north, we have Quebec.

I live right on Hollywood blvd in Los Angeles, but for some reason tourists constantly try to give me weird looks if I just go about my day. I'm sorry that my normal living bothers your view of this place? I don't get people who are American and travel within America for leisure. I'm Russian and I only travel overseas, since there is nothing terribly unique about America.

Where do you hail from? Methinks places in SF open about the same time as any other city in the US. Most stores/places do open around 10, I guess. But here's some awesum advice regarding that: sleep in, bro. Man, I wish I could. I hate waking up at 8 every day to go to work...

I go on very short trips that are about one week long, so I try to go somewhere different each time to experience a whole different culture. It's not so much elitism as it is familiarity. Since I live in America, it doesn't interest me.

I hate white people. They're so loud and arrogant. They want everything now, and won't give you the time of day. If you don't speak their language, you are an idiot, and don't deserve their respect.

It makes me annoyed for being white myself.

I live in the south, and I hate it when all the fucking stupid northerners come down here acting all superior. They strut around acting so cool and tough, making fun of the locals' accents and asking about the last black guy we lynched. One guy asked me where I was from, and when I told him I was a local, he asked me what diet plan I'd used, since I wasn't xbawks hueg like "all you people down here". WTF, Yankees? You make fun of us for being ignorant rednecks, and then come to our town and act like douches.

I manage a hotel in Sukhumvit area of Bangkok and I have particular dislike for middle eastern guest.

They bargain for every little penny they can, what's the point of having every price printed out when you don't bother to respect it ?

They eat with their hands, use bed sheet for napkins, permanently stain the sheet and towels then refuse to pay for the damage.

Some of their... I don't know really rural type will shit on the hotel's towel, I kid you not.

It's funny 'cause it's true. When I was in Syria only the more luxurious hotels had western style toilets & toilet paper. In public bathrooms you'll instead find these squat toilets. You clean your ass with your fingers and a water hose.
Pic related, it's the toilets on Damascus International Airport, the fucking largest and most "modern" airport in the country.

>>They bargain for every little penny they can
It's embedded in their culture. The good news is that you can bargain with them too if you ever happen to be there, everyone does. The bad news is that you suck at bargaining and they will rip you off anyways.

Luckily for Europeans most countries where haggling is commonplace are pretty cheap even if you get ripped off.

Most annoying thing about tourists anywhere: the inability to adapt to the local social conventions. Just the basics, it is not too hard. Really.

Apparently this includes not shitting on other people's towels.

I love the Korean/Japanese approach to escalators, standing people stand on the left, walking people pass them on the right. Everybody sticks to this rule, and it makes live easier for those who are in a hurry or don't like wasting time standing still on an escalator.

If the tourists are humble, I don't mind them. I live in Toronto, so in the summer we get a fuckton of tourists. Last July I worked down at the water-front as a volunteer, and because I speak French and German, I ended up helping out dozens of Eurofag tourists. Majority of them were nice people, just trying to find their way to the CN tower and whatnot.

Japanese tourists are fucking hilarious. Even in Toronto, the most diverse city in the world, they look so out of place it's impossible not to laugh. They literally do take pictures of everything.

I find the most annoying tourists are Britfags. The ones I've encountered have such a goddamned superiority complex it disgusts me.

Hmm, I live in Finland, and we dont get that many tourists, luckily, might be because I live in Turku, the shithole of Finland. But yeah, mostly japanese and russian tourist group`s, never seen any english speaking tourist group yet.

Sometimes I just feel like going to ask about them about normal stuff, where are they from, what kind of place is that place from where are they from and so on... But, er, I never have courage to do it.

I'm an Army Cadet in Australia, so I often have some ceremonial duties at the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne (the second biggest war memorial in Australia).
It really pisses me off to see Asian tourists going inside the Shrine and trying to take photos (you're not allowed to in such a place), talking loudly (once it happened while the Last Post was being played), and basically being disrespectful and ignorant of the fact that they're in a sacred place, despite being told.
Other than that, I love tourists.

People who travel thousands of miles to some amazing place to 'sample the nightlife' (codeword for getting heavily drunk and doing drugs). It's like... why travel all that way to do *that*? Fucking retards. And I love the argument about the night life being 'different'... Wut? The Night Life is 'different'? The only fucking difference in night life is if you're in a beach or a big city. And if you want to soak up the fucking atmosphere, why are you so fucking drunk?
