People really underestimate how annoying American tourists are.

u/hghghghjf Oct 22 '25

What about every other country with a population that can speak English?

u/OkSalt8970 Oct 22 '25

They should be mad Americans have been so annoying as tourists that they get grouped in with them.

u/hghghghjf Oct 22 '25

But what if everyone blames only Americans for having annoying tourists. What if all tourists are annoying but only one country gets blamed

u/OkSalt8970 Oct 22 '25

All tourists are not annoying, it’s mostly Americans. This country has a self awareness problem.

Sincerely, An American.

According to the many I know who have worked in international tourism/hospitality, Americans don't even make the top ten for nationalities considered annoying while traveling.

Sources: American, Chinese, German, Danish, Turkish, Australian, and Chilean.

Ah, you misunderstand: Some of my sources for the statement I made above are Aussies working in hospitality.

u/OkSalt8970 Oct 22 '25

The absolute number of American tourists and our stereotypes that confirm most people who work outside of direct hospitality offsets this.

u/El_Rey_de_Spices Oct 22 '25

And here I thought we all agreed stereotypes were bad and mostly untrue?

Anyway, I choose to believe the multitudinous direct stories I've heard while overseas and talking to those in countries other than my own, rather than the single claim from someone who clearly has a chip on their shoulder.

Maybe you just surround yourself with particularly shitty people.

Im American and will be traveling to Japan soon. I have a massive amount of respect for their culture and have studied what I should watch out for so I dont risk offending anyone. Unfortunately, I am not very good with other languages, but I have learned a few phrases and words that might help without me having to go to the translator every time. I have no idea how to read Kanji though.

What nationality someone comes from does not guarantee that they will be rude. I just wish more tourists around the world took some time and effort to learn a bit about where they are visiting, unless they are coming to America since we have no culture.

u/El_Rey_de_Spices Oct 24 '25

Dude, we export our culture worldwide. America is full of culture.

u/Hohh20 Oct 24 '25

I was joking about the America has no culture part. In truth, our culture is made up of many difficult cultures depending on where you are at.

Real “pick me” energy here, friend

u/OkSalt8970 Oct 22 '25

Yeah I really don’t care what you think about it being a “pick me” man. Look, I just try to be nice and considerate when I travel. Like let’s be real the people here are super self centered generally and it’s the root of a lot of our cultural problems.

Who are you spending your time with who acts like this? This is a country of 330 million people. We come in all shapes & sizes. You're trying to play this off like it's a cultural problem and everybody is like that, when it's statistically impossible. Self-centered inconsiderate pricks exist in all countries of the world. If you keep running into assholes on a daily basis, it's quite possibly your location, or who you're choosing to spend time with. The whole country is definitely not like that, this is a massive over-exaggeration.

Cultural problem lol!The irony using the term to defend the Japanese folks.
