Oh My God - She Really Is That Dumb

[Keith Whittaker]

A True story, A couple of years ago, Mrs W and I were at Uluru. We were looking around the visitor centre which lies in the very shadow of the big red rock when a middle aged lady, looking slightly flustered, entered, approached the information desk and in a loud, and most definitely, American voice said " Excuse me! I am trying to find something called Ayers Rock, The coach dropped me off before dawn and i've been wandering all around this damn place for hours and i can't find a signpost or anything!". The Ranger on duty was the perfect model of professionalism as she pointed out of the window towards the looming monolith, while retaining an air of studious concern for this geographically challenged tourists dilemma. This was only spoilt by Mrs W and I rolling about on the floor, laughing hysterically!

Thats similiar to when we were in Sharm last year, the hotel bus pulled up in front of a big glass fronted building, which happened to be full of tables and people sitting on chairs at those tables all eating dinner, there may even of been a lit up sign out front that said restaurant too. The bus "diving expert" who had to talk louder than the anyone else said to his wife whilst pointing at the building " oh look what do you think that is" !!!!!!!!!!!! So unfortunately its not just yanks, but our very own yorkshire men too

Yes, but a Yorkshireman could be excused for not knowing what a restaurant is. Everyone knows they just sit at home with their whippets eating coal and dripping.

It amuses me the American Bashing that seems to be sport on these boards. It seems that people can post the most ludicrous stories about 'Americans' and others lap it up. Seems to say more about those people than the Americans these reports seem to talk about.

It seems to me that any population which elects this person to a position of world influence leaves itself wide open for ridicule.

It's a laugh having a laugh at the Americans once in a while, yet go to Algarve, Tenerife, the Costas and see the fellow Brits. There is so many jerks about you'd be ashamed to be British. Loud, rude, constantly drunk, singing footbal songs no one gives a damn about and pure just pure scum.

Before joking about other nationalities look at your back yard. I go as far as saying that after studying in the UK for 10 years I was surprised to witness so much racism, self glorification and ignorance. I love the UK but let's not pretend it full of roses. Like any nation you have the dumb, dumbest, normality and the rest.

FYI I'm quite a mongrel: Half American, Half British (Yoprkshire!), born in Portugal, married to a Hungarian & also have Spanish blood. Proud of all of these.

I've heard that they don't drip too much these days, the creams are very good.
