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!"

stupid blokeI was in a museum not so long ago with parents standing near an Egyptian mummy and I heard the bloke next to me say to his wife "It's such a cruel way to kill people...wrapping them up in bandages and nailing them into a coffin. Those Egyptians were brutes".
He was English, not really a tourist story, but what a stupid stupid man. I could see his wife re-thinking her marriage as she glanced at him disgustedly.
