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!"

Blind leading the BlindA mate of mine`s girlfriend was conducting tours of the Roman baths in Bath. One part of the tour requires crossing a busy main road so she stopped her party at the pedestrian crossing and pressed the button. When the lights changed and the beeping started, one particularly obnoxious american kid asked what the beeping was, she replied that it was so that blind people would know that the lights are on red. The reply? "Fuck! you let blind people drive over here?"
