Irishman.
I thought it'd be a fellow American by the title.
I knew it wasn’t an American, because it didn’t “American” in the title. Plus, I feel like Americans have caught so much shit about being idiots abroad that we’ve learned to chill. That American exceptionalism isn’t so exceptional anymore.
Americans are too fat to climb anything.
Honestly, americans are fine tourists as far as i can tell. I witnessed some very old racist motherfuckers, but like the 20 to 40 year olds were always a delight
Very true. Larger countries just happen to have more idiots. Plenty of Russian and Chinese tourists caught doing dumb stuff too. Not too many from India for some reason, at least not that I can recall.
we've learned to chill
Honestly I think we're just too xenophobic and broke. If we were becoming better people overall I would expect to see a decrease in shitty behavior over here as well, or at least a levelling off.
Bruh why a statue. You have all those buildings around you.
Semicolons cost nothing.
Isn't this acceptable though due to the subject of both "clauses" being the same ("tourist" both climbs and breaks)?
"and" doesn't cost anything either
It costs horizontal space, and my understanding is that newspaper headlines tend to minimize words as much as possible (while maintaining meaning).
I'm almost certain this would not be a correct usage of a semicolon, semicolons require both parts of the sentence to be compete.
This shit is even funnier if you take into account the fact that they've been renovating the place for like 5 years or something and only finished a month or two ago
Hope it was worth the 17k€ fine they try to charge him now.
Why blur face?
Cunt was so ugly they didn't want to subject readers to his mug.
