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!"

Not exactly a toursitbut sort of - my bosses brother, highly Australian, and a sniper. A fascinating job which I have to say I do wish is the career choice I had chosen. Anyhow...
In a restaurant, perusing the menu, he turns to my boss and asks
Bro: 'what's aw-ber-guyn?'
Boss: 'oh, thats egg-plant.'
Bro: 'ah, I thought it was some kinda critter'
made me laugh anyhow.
