The Brits on holiday in Italy are snooty assholes. The worst are Germans, who let their kids piss on the Palentine hill – you know, the center of the western world.

Most Americans are fucking insufferable – we were extra careful to be nice, to try and learn at least some italian or apologize for asking for english – and then some dumbshit from Iowa would start yelling that he wanted a Diet Coke (Coke Lite being too much of a translation) and why can’t these bastards learn english?

Why do people who can’t stand things being done differently ever bother to leave the U.S. anyway? Because they are sick and goddamned tired of their neighbors talking about their European trip(s) and lording it over them like they're so goddamned superior . . . . what, you think we can't afford to go to Europe? We'll show you - we'll spend thousands of dollars on a trip we will go out of our way not to enjoy! And then we'll be able to go to the 4th of July barbecue at the rec center of our gated community and loudly say that your European vacations are just snobby elitist affectations! Because Europe is stupid!!!!!!! So what do you think of that, Jones? Huh?

Second, you’ve got to love any nation where the National Tourist Board may as well have “The wogs start at Calais” as their motto (islands do have a habit of xenophobia)

God, yes. Good job Germany’s in the middle of a continent, otherwise they might have had some really bad moments in their history.

First, where can one start a petition to have Mr. Nordlinger change his name to Mr. Sudlinger, so there is no chance he’s ever mistaken for Canadian?

Second, you’ve got to love any nation where the National Tourist Board may as well have “The wogs start at Calais” as their motto (islands do have a habit of xenophobia);

Third, having lived for years in a tourist trap designed for Americans (Victoria, BC), my favorite question so far is “Do you have real money?”

And (totally getting my nerd on) David has small genitalia because that was admired in Greece as proof of sophistication and elegance, and Michaelangelo imitated that style. Packing a massive “meat and two veg” was considered bestial and vulgar, though there is little comment on what women of the area thought about this belief.

Look, the statue of David must be swishy because the model had to stand around nekkid in front of another dude.

Everyone knows that if another guy to looks at your wedding tackle for more than 5 seconds you’ll catch a massive irreversible case of teh gheys. This is why WingNutDuds get their mommies to excuse them from gym class, never, ever workout and always use the stalls in the mens’ bath … well, forget about that one … Anyway, um … yeah. Don’t look at nekkid guys. Don’t let guys look at you nekkid.

So let’s not blame nationality for stupidity and blinkered perspectives.

No, no, it’s OK. I’m an American, so I can say Americans make piss-poor visitors to other places. It’s the same principle as that n-word exception the racists are always whining about.

Idiot tourists come in all flavors, colors, and ethnicities, both here in the USA and elsewhere — including Americans in other parts of America; I spot them in the streets of Darkest Beverly Hills every time I go to the podiatrist. My best friend has German relatives who come over demanding cold cuts (liverwurst, yuck!) for breakfast and refuse to give tips because in Germany the tip is part of the bill. So let’s not blame nationality for stupidity and blinkered perspectives.

One day Canada will sue the crap out of us or, preferably, invade.

I, for one, welcome our new Canadian overlords.
