Stupid Tourists
What's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a tourist say? Ever heard an American talking about visiting "Scotchland, England", or (and this one is actually real) a Japanese couple talking about the correct way to say Clapham is actually Clatham, as "ph" sounds are pronounced "th". Which has a certain logic really. UPDATE: Please, no more Loogabarooga stories. It's getting like, "and I opened my eyes and my mum had left me a cup of tea!"

Mike, a Canadian friend
was staying at his parents' place in Florida. A Merican clocks his strange accent, says, "Where are you from?"
Mike says: "Canada."
Merican: "Really? Where's that?"
The fella wasn't even a Floridan--he came from Minnesota (on the US-Canada border).
