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!"

Just for you:I just got back from a visa trip in Japan today. While there, I intended to figure out and say the dumbest-assed thing a tourist could say there, and I think I succeeded.
We were eating pizza in a weird western-through-a-funhouse-mirror-themed restaurant, and when the cheque arrived at the end, I said, "Now whur's mah fortune cookie?"
Of course nobody around understood English.
