I recently went to florida to see my grandma and go to Disney world. Every where I went there were rich Brits just bieng rude and terrible.
They were cutting me off so much. If I said sorry for doing something to one of them they would plain old ignore me. They were treating these poor workers like dirt and they would take soooo long in lines.
Sorry to regular brits I hope yall aren't like this. Can anyone else relate to this.

Can't judge everyone based on a few. Plenty of rude Americans and people from everywhere else. Wealth often makes people think that they're superior. We just tend to notice rude people and not people who are polite and considerate. We remember the person who cut us off and not the person who held the door for us.

3 RepliesEdited by Machinimagames: 7/28/2022 5:27:27 PMNo you just encountered rude ones. Just like me as a traveler they always assume a lot about Americans which a lot of times are not true or just part true. Not to mention Great Britain is like 3 different countries in one. Which are different from each other. I would personally call your statement super ignorant. Especially when Americans are some of the rudest people to customer service workers world wide. Also how exactly did you know they were rich?

I hate rich british tourists too... My ancestors remember some rich 'British Tourists', and yes they were rude and loud and annoying, the problem was they never went home... should have just ate them...oh well..

1 ReplyThat’s not being British, that’s being elitist (class discrimination). Trust me, you have a lot of affluent Americans that behave that same way. I know because I work with some of them…and every so often (because I’m African-American and have to deal with certain [i]biases[/i]) I have to check them on that rudeness. Because they’re so used to slinging around a rude, commanding tone…and getting away with it… that they try to use it on me. Where I then have to remind them, “I work WITH you, not FOR you. So you have no authority over me, and I’ll thank you not to take that [i]tone[/i] with me.” Most of them get the message and rein it in. A few don’t, and I have…ahem…[i]other ways[/i] of dealing with them. TLDR: You’re just seeing the arrogance of wealth and status that consumes some people. They were born on third base, and think they hit the triple that put them there. So they treat others as “less than”. It’s obnoxious. To watch, and to be in the receiving end of.

1 ReplyEdited by Cultmeister: 7/28/2022 7:36:12 AMWe are that special kind of snobby human that goes to Spain and sets up English resorts and towns, like a damn colony, and will blunder about foreign cities complaining that there aren’t any places that sell English food. Don’t even get me started on the sports fans going abroad. Holy moly. As someone who works is a particularly touristy place though, loud, entitled and obnoxious Americans are the bane of my existence, along with non-English-speaking ones who shove their phone in my face with a picture on of the thing they want because they can’t be bothered to learn the word “sandwiches”.

British "people" yuck

I would say that any time a family is capable of traveling to an entirely different continent for vacation, they are probably pretty well off financially. And in my experience, the more money someone has, the more likely they are to be.. uh.. “less courteous” to other people. It’s a “spoiled” thing. Not a cultural one.

No offense to Asian tourists but when I for the first time visit universal studios in LA (bc I lived 2 hours south at the time) I’d be in line and every time these tourists had zero personal space. When I’d pass em trying to get to my destination, they’d act like I was challenging them and They’d get right into my face, like 2 inches and one ended up unintentionally spatting in my mouth and I just left. Went in the car and fell asleep for 2 hours before giving it another shot. I get it’s a different culture but god I still want to puke when I think about it.

The fact that you were visiting your nan might throw it off, but we went during February break twice. Both times we were able to do LAPS on Space Mountain. Dad wanted to hit Pirates, so we did a couple laps there too. Dudeguy didn't even make us get off. I wouldn't expect that level of shenanigans as a baseline. But off-season is da wey.

Yeah we are all like that.. Scum of the earth. Avoid at all costs.
