Stupid TouristsWhat's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a tourist say? Ever heard an American talking about visiting "Scotchland, England", or (and this one is actually real) a Japanese couple talking about the correct way to say Clapham is actually Clatham, as "ph" sounds are pronounced "th". Which has a certain logic really. UPDATE: Please, no more Loogabarooga stories. It's getting like, "and I opened my eyes and my mum had left me a cup of tea!"

High-class tastesI was in a chocolaterie somewhere in France (I've now forgotten where), buying a box of fancy chocolates to give to friends, when a busload of New Yorkers arrived. They were annoyed by the fact that the chocolatier was serving us (since we were there first) and not jumping to help them. "Awwwww, the French are so rude!" one of them announced, "I don't even want any of this stuff. What I really want is, like, chocolate and a cookie. What I want is a Kit Kat."
Classy!
