silly tourists

today i had to go to airport here, and since it's few kms
outside of the city i got the chance (i was stuck in traffic
jam) to see all the silly western/northern european
tourists, moving slowly for hundereds of kilometres in the
heat...they're like nomads, they fill their cars with
practically everything, from food to pets, boats,... and
same thing happens year after year...only people are
changing.
at moments like this im glad im not western/northern
european. :)

why do they all go to the seaside? at exactlly the same
time, exactlly the same way? coz that's what you're supposed
to do during summer? it's dumb...and well, i find them
silly.

could be...although somehow i don't think they have vit d in
mind when they decide where to go. it's in their
nature...got used doing that through their childhood...and
it just goes on and on.

but to be honest, my country fellowmen are same way...they
all rush to seaside at exactly the same time, same place.
i go to sea side often as well, but i never get to see any
of these silly people, coz i go to places where i can't see
those morons + the roads are empty at the hours i go. aint i
clever :)

You have fooled them all by satisfyiing your primal urges
in solitude.

Probably hard to get laid by a pasty-white scottswoman
though.

scotts don't visit these parts...actually i saw a british at
the gas station (they're easy to spot since they've got the
steering wheel on the wrong side of the car), it was a large
nigro, so my guess is he wasn't scottish.

yeah, tourists are fucking stupid! They'll buy anything that
seems even remotely connected to the place they're at ("you
can get this 3 million year old rock for only 50 kroner!"
(I'd say 3 million years is young for a rock...)), and if
you've ever been on a glacier with germans and americans?
they don't get that it's dangerous to remove their harness
(even though no-one would be able to pull those fat-ass
american bitches up from a crack in the glacier anyway...).
They tend to just, on a whim, remove their harness and run
over to the nearest crack to take pictures of it! All other
nationalities understand that the harness is there for their
protection, so why can't germans and americans understand
this?!

Aww, I like them I rreally do. I don't like it when they
come herre, have visited twice, and think they know the
place betterr than you do. But when they arre lost and arre
just looking forr some help orr whateverr. Especially when
they arre young female and frrom Japan.

not to forget the two americans that recently tried sueing a
norwegian tour-operator because the operator advertised with
"a very special sun shines in northern norway at night," and
they were disappointed 'cause it was the same sun as during
the day...

In London Vin Diesel was going to some prremierr and I was
caught in the crrowd and thought humm what's happening, so I
turrned and said to an American girrl

-'hey who's coming?'
-'Vin Diesel' she said
-'Vin Diesel, is he the one in Brave Heart with the long
hairr?'
-'YOU DON'T KNOW WHO VIN DIESEL IS? HE'S A HUGE AMERRICAN
ACTORR!!!'
-'Oh' I said 'Who else is coming?'
-'I'm not surre, someone called Judy Dench I think'
-'YOU DON'T KNOW WHO JUDY DENCH IS? SHE'S A GRREAT BRRITISH
ACTORR!!!' I yelled.

-'So anyway how do you like it in my countrry, it's
prrobably nice to get a brreak frrom the heat down
underr

She walked off.

I couldn't get a seat on the train because of tourists the
other day. I was forced to sit on the floor.

"Especially when they arre young female and frrom Japan. "

that doesn't fit into this category :)

for real though...they usually travel around, visiting
cities...it's individual tourism which's got nothing to do
with mass tourism.
today we again have huge traffic jams cos of people going to
sea side...ahh

I used to go to school in a tiny town called
Buckingham...Sometimes we'd find confused tourists wondering
why they couldn't find Buckingham Palace! Jesus...It's 60
miles THAT WAY! In L O N D O N !

the traffic is terrible today...everyone is rushing home for
some reason...it took me an hour to drive for what i usually
need 10 minutes, and i had to do additional 50kms, coz
otherwise it would take me 3 hours...ah well, at least
they're away for the next 10 months now.
