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!"

Take me to your Qantas!!!!Was working at a backpackers in Melbourne a few years ago. This American guy comes up to me and asks if I can direct him to where he might go to see a qantas. I suspected I knew what he was talking about although couldn't quite believe someone could be so stupid so had to ask him for more info.
"You know a qantas, a great big furry jumping rat, all your planes have pictures of them on the tail"
Should have just booked the cretin on the airport shuttle but then he would have still remained in Victoria so I obliged him by booking him on an overland trip to another state(as far away from me as possible) and told him to look out of the window. Loads of nice road kill in the country here. He was bound to see lots of qantas' .
