I just got back from Jamaica two weeks ago. The Americans I met were all rather nice, very reserved and suprisingly well edumacated.
Except for the fat oafish c*nt in the pool who was eying up Missus Dickus, but you can't win 'em all.

Except for a reporter, who was quite
sharp.

And I've never passed out...I just sleep heavily
but I see your point...and have to agree that the English abroad on the piss is not something I'm proud of

The people of the US are so proud to be 'American' yet most of them claim to be Irish or Spanish or somesuch; seemingly anything but 'American'.
Probably a symptom of their lack of history and cultural roots.

they wondered why I wasn't more
interested in my Irish antecedants.
the truth is, it's the people lacking
a firm identity that feel the need to
criticize others.

When me and Mrs odorant got engaged we went out for a nice meal in Virginia Water and unfortunately sat next to some Americans.
They said hello and made comments about our accents being so cute,etc but Me and Mrs O only had eyes for each other.
The septics obviously didn't get the hint and kept making conversation in that annoying way they do, until i said :
"So, where are you from?"
and they replied,
"Why, the US of course", with a look on their faces that said "where else?"
"Oh" I said, "your English is really good", and with that turned back to my wife to be and did not hear from them again, all evening.

and cut down with a sharp remark. But I
doubt you'd find that nearly so amusing.
In fact, I don't find it amusing myself.
But then, I don't find this sort of stuff
amusing in general.
