- Threlly1, on 04/14/2009, -0/+49I'm British, and I can't stand other British people abroad.
- gotflash, on 04/14/2009, -0/+48"No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled," the tourist said.
o_o - anexanhume, on 04/14/2009, -0/+47Sorry, but this one takes the cake...
"including one where a holidaymaker said he felt inadequate after seeing an aroused elephant, which in turn ruined his honeymoon." - Gr00ver, on 04/14/2009, -6/+41............................................________

- sockpuppets, on 04/14/2009, -0/+28His wife ran off with it.
- banik2008, on 04/14/2009, -2/+29I'm not British, and I agree.
- Rain12913, on 04/14/2009, -0/+24Complaining of not being warned that a beach has an abundance of jellyfish or sharks, which can both cause harm, is one thing. Complaining of not being warned that there are fish at the beach is another. There are fish at virtually every beach in the world, and if you need to be warned of this than you belong not on a beach but back in grade school.
- sideshowRAHEEM, on 04/14/2009, -0/+23It's not the water it's all that god damn salt in it, they sould be able to fix that.
- sockpuppets, on 04/14/2009, -1/+20Too many dicks on the dancefloor.
- RobotWolf, on 04/14/2009, -0/+19In my youth, I worked at a tourist destination in Florida. I had the fortune to meet travelers from all corners of the world. Not once did I encounter a British tourist doing anything other than having a great time and enjoying themselves.
I did, however, see a french woman scream at her boat skipper at length for attempting to say "Goodbye" in her language. I also saw a Brazilian father coax his young daughter to drop a massive steamer on a dock not two feet from and in plain view of the throng of tourists with them.
Having said that, those were extreme, isolated incidents. We had many French and Brazilian guests that conducted themselves politely and respectfully. - rebo2, on 04/14/2009, -0/+19It's obviously British Humour. I fill out funny complaint cards from time to time myself. I've got to try that gravy boat one, though! I LOL'd at that one.
- strictnein, on 04/14/2009, -1/+18It's popular to call Americans fat, dumb, rude, racist, etc, because it helps citizens from other countries ignore the fact that their fellow citizens are just as dumb, rude, racist, and, increasingly, fat as we are.
- mickstephenson, on 04/14/2009, -0/+15I read a survey before conducted on hotel and bar staff in popular tourist destinations around the world, and the consensus was that the British were widely regarded as the most polite guests. Whereas the French and Americans were deemed to be overly demanding and rude. The general consensus was that the French expect and extremely high standard of food available, as they have available to them in France, and the Americans expect very high levels of service and general arse kissing as is the normal treatment you receive in the US. Whereas the British are known for being hesitant to complain and make a scene, and not accustomed to the levels of service that Americans have or dining that the French have.
This being an Aussie publication you expect them to have a laugh at the Brit's expense as is their national pastime. - mattyk123, on 04/14/2009, -0/+15I agree, there are way too many Spanish paople in Spain.
- strictnein, on 04/14/2009, -0/+14Erhh... what?
- digghasnoethics, on 04/14/2009, -0/+14Exactly !
Does nobody else take the piss out the feedback forms? I thought that was a time honoured way of amusing yourself on holiday, or even better at one of those conferences where they insist on you filling in your opinions.
The trick is to make it sound not quite weird enough that they know you're joking. - mickstephenson, on 04/14/2009, -1/+14Why would we want to stop eating fish n chips? They taste brilliant and it has alot more charm than the soulless massive corporate fastfood chains you inflict on the world.
Why don't you develop a taste for real cheese instead of plastic/sprayable *****? - jcastillo81, on 04/14/2009, -0/+13I used to work at a campground in the black hill forest of South Dakota (that also had an onsite hotel). I heard some good ones:
Someone actually complained about there being too many bugs...in the Black Hills National FOREST
A customer of the hotel complained that the air conditioner blew the curtains around too much.
Another person wrote a page long letter complaining about a flickering light in their cabin that ruined their vacation. They demanded a full refund. They wrote this letter 2 weeks AFTER they stayed with us.
One customer commented that my long haired (and robustly bearded) friend looked like a girl. - D1Foley, on 04/14/2009, -1/+14Other complaints included “there are too many Spanish people in Spain” and “too much curry served in restaurants in India”.
Wow, just wow - Ragzouken, on 04/14/2009, -1/+13Why can't you guys just lose some weight?
- enkideridu, on 05/15/2009, -0/+12Is this website australia's 'the onion'?
- Pimpalicious316, on 04/14/2009, -0/+11they should rename it to "The Bloomin' Onion"
- Cougnut415, on 04/14/2009, -0/+11There are too many words in this article, no one said anything about words being in this article. Buried.
- americanoboy, on 04/14/2009, -4/+15a lot of beaches don't have sand at all and instead have pebbles.
- verynegative, on 04/14/2009, -0/+11"My fiancé and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in a double-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact that I find myself pregnant.”
LOL - Hetman, on 04/14/2009, -0/+9I wonder if they expressed these complaints in strongly worded letters?
- dafragsta, on 04/14/2009, -1/+10Avi: Shut up and sit down you big bald *****! I don't like leaving my own country, Doug. And, I especially don't like leaving it for anything less than warm sandy beaches and cocktails with little straw hats.
Doug the Head: We've got sandy beaches.
Avi: So, who the ***** wants to see 'em?! - northernmunky, on 04/14/2009, -0/+9I once complained there wasn't enough fit girls on the beach...
.... I thought it was perfectly valid... my missus didn't think so though... - sniffer, on 04/14/2009, -0/+9Portuguese here!
Brits can come here whenever they want. They're welcomed.
We like the brits.
They pay well, drink better and usually are quite nice people (even drunk they usually are quite funny, until they drop drunk on one of our amazing beaches).
BRITISH! Come to Portugal this summer. We love you(r money, that is....) - theonlywizdum, on 04/14/2009, -1/+10What's always annoyed me is people who think speaking English slower will make someone who does not know English, suddenly understand it.
- anexanhume, on 04/14/2009, -0/+8The French can be very snooty about their language. My high school English teacher was fluent in French and visited France once. While there, she met a French woman who also spoke English. She attempted to speak French with her, but the woman insisted on speaking in English. From her attitude, it was clear she wasn't trying to be polite to the foreigner.
- inigomntoya, on 04/14/2009, -0/+8HAHA! You crazy Scotts and your gibberish...
- SpeedStix, on 04/14/2009, -0/+7dugg for GC
R.I.P. - MrZaiko, on 04/14/2009, -0/+7Too messy with all this sand!
Salty water!!?!?! You cant even make tea!!! - americanoboy, on 04/14/2009, -2/+9Getting buried by rednecks who never stepped outside their trailer to know there are beaches without sand. LEWLZ
- mickstephenson, on 04/14/2009, -0/+6There the amount of Americans that claim to be Canadian while abroad the survey probably was probably inaccurate with regards to Canadians.
- inigomntoya, on 04/14/2009, -0/+6Or the lady who got pregnant.
During the delivery of our second child, my wife tried to blame it on me the same way. - SamSlater, on 04/14/2009, -0/+6Next in the news: Aussies make fun of poms.
- random90210, on 04/14/2009, -0/+6Thanks, it makes much more sense now. I can't believe I got wooshed by that :(
- inactive, on 04/14/2009, -0/+5What's with all the sunlight in North-America? My skin is no longer pale.
- Ragzouken, on 04/14/2009, -0/+5But were these complaints just people taking the piss?
- terracottapai, on 04/14/2009, -0/+5Wonder why nobody posted this yet.. the internet isn't as nerdy as it used to be.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcCuBWXd-hc - northernmunky, on 04/14/2009, -0/+5Where'd this whole thing about teeth come from?
- JammoBlammo, on 04/14/2009, -0/+5I heard that in a Seinfeld voice.
- theonlywizdum, on 04/14/2009, -0/+5I live in Maine, and even we have rocky beaches....
Maine = redneck capital of New England. A good day is ended by shooting guns in the back yard, woo! - mickstephenson, on 04/14/2009, -0/+4"should I say the que. " That depends, are you trying to say "what" in Spanish?
- JacksonYaya, on 04/14/2009, -2/+6When you've dissed cheese in aerosol cans you've crossed the line....or should I say the que.
