          Perhaps some of only travel in groups of morons? I rarely catch sight of an, "ugly American" and certainly no more or no less than ugly Italians and Germans in southern Thailand, South Koreans here, Brits in Bahrain....

            Maize posts his opinions on everything and trolls badly as well. Plus he cheers for Michigan (along with a dozen other teams) so he is a double ******

              And I've heard that if you honestly try to speak the language, not half-sentences in English/half in native language, they appreciate you trying to learn, instead of having the "attitude" that everyone in the world should know English. Basically, admit you are trying to learn, not half-arse it, etc.

              Yes, chances are they will switch to English, if you are mangling the language, but they appreciate the attempt.

                                That's why it's illegal to play the unedited version of Dire Straits' "Money for Nothing" in Canada now. The line, "Look at that fa**ot, that's the way you do it" - all because the people up there can't understand context. (Hint: Dire Straits wasn't saying anything derogatory against gay men, and Canadians would understand that if they were able to understand the context in which the line was used.)
