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!"

moronWhile in France, an American approached me. He asked me if I had THE TIME, pointing to his watch in an annoyingly over-emphasised way, with no attempt whatsoever at French language. Not that I'd be able to understand it, but I thought it pretty rude, presuming he had taken me for somebody who was French.
Therefore I responded with this: "Oooga booga la ley crossiant honky hoo la leee lay shooby leela maison...etc" in a French accent, with slightly crossed eyes.
He ran away.
