>spill my spaghetti and just nod politely
>didn't even talk to them after

Sometimes I wish I was born in Taiwan or something. Does this count as a shitty tourist story? Because it made me sad.

>At Dudai airport
>had been stayed for transit so long time
>ate some dishes and felt sleepy
>found a chair in front of a shop
>a chinese family came to the shop
>children behaved as if they were in the house and messed up around the shop but dad wouldn't take care of them
>some other tourists found them savages
>had to go away not to mistake a member of them
>couldn't rest till boarding time

not really a story, but i always am embarrassed when i'm in another country and i see a fellow american tourist who is obese

My parents used to own a restaurant and a large group of American tourists came and when they paid they gave like a 50€ tip and I said sorry but that's too much so in the end I got 20€.

Thank you America.

>be me, 18
>Going to Germany for summer
>meet qt german girl
>pretend to be Canadian
>tell her its customary for me to kiss her feet before I can enter her home
>turns out she lived in canada for 10 years and knows this is false

This ever happen to anyone else?

Yes

Nobody visits us.

>hear some people talking in a foreign language in Greggs
>tell them to fuck off back to where they came from

i still dont understand how people mix up chinks and nips. you look completely different and arent even the same color

ive pretended to be scandinavian in france to obtain better service while in restaurants. this was early in the iraq conflict though, so i doubt the frogs are nearly as hostile to us now.

They had to put this sign up in my town just after the border after too many American visitors tried to drive 110mph on the highway.

One story I have
>American family visiting my seaside tourist town
>eating at posh seafood restaurant
>fat noisy woman orders a burger
>no idea why you would order a burger at a restaurant famous for its seafood
>recieves burger
>takes a couple bites
>waves over waitress
>"something is wrong with my burger"
>"I'm sorry about that ma'am. What's wrong with it?"
>"It tastes funny and is mushy"
>"Mushy ma'am?"
>"Yes, we don't have meat like this in America"
>entire restaurant internally facepalms
>"Sorry ma'am but that's the only kind off hamburger beef we have"
>American woman loudly refuses to eat anymore or pay for meal
All I can figure is that she had never had high quality, grassfed, beef before, just weird tasting corn fed factory meat.

How ddo you know they were Chinese and not japanese??

>All I can figure is that she had never had high quality, grassfed, beef before, just weird tasting corn fed factory meat.

you can get it here just fine. and relatively cheap when compared to what i hear what most other countries pay for beef. but poor people for sure, have only ever had shitty ground beef.

i really like the idea of a canadian cop pulling over a dumbass american for going 110mph
>do you have any idea why i pulled you over?

i would suspect that they were speaking chinese

chinks are all yellow and pan-faced. usually weird shaped noses. japanese people by comparison are generally quite pleasant to look at and oftentimes, much paler. chinese people look like god was trying to make japanese people, but left them in the oven for too long, and they got burnt/melted

Never sure if they're dumbasses who think it's apparently the Canadian autobahn or clever bastards who recognise a chance to get out of a ticket.

As for beef, of course America has top-tier stuff, but overall your USDA standards for beef are below our CFIA standards. One study between the 2 said: "USDA quality grade does not sufficiently segregate carcasses for palatability differences, and thus a direct measurement of meat tenderness is needed to supplement USDA quality grades."
You also have no requirements on the age of beef, to get anything above a grade d rating in Canada the cow must be young, mature beef (and therefore less tender) can get even a prime rating in America.
This is probably what she meant by "mushy" goid A/AA/AAA/ or Prime Canadian beef will be extremely tender, similar to veal except red instead of pale and highly marbled requiring no less than 2cm of white fat.

...

Cantonese != all Chinese.

Just sayin'. You also have a highly romanticized view of Japanese people.

Umm, that's Venice isn't it? I was under the impression that the water in the canals wasn't exactly pristine. Hope their shots are up to date.

I think that's New Orléans.
