This is a question 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!"

Whilst in San Francisco...
iPod Minis had just come out. I figured - what the hell, I'm on holiday, may as well get one cheaper than at home if I see it.

Apparently asking for an iPod Mini is the funniest thing the guy (reminiscent of the comic book owner from the simposons) had ever heard.


Other than that, San Francisco is great, everyone was nice. Hard to find a good restaurant, but there is a place called 'Frjtz' (I think - pronounced 'frites') that sells facking ace chips.
