I’ve had all kinds of stuff happen over the years, including two windows broken on my car.  I’ve never thought it’s solely because I’m American.

You seem to have no problems expressing your strong opinions, some of which are quite negative. Perhaps that has made you more of a target.  I hope that’s not the case.

For once we are in agreement Mr. Jimbo.
I just hope that more people will ignore the fatalism of the argument that we are beyond repair. We are not beyond repair. We are never beyond repair. - AOC

Not that I am keeping score.

I'm glad my score isn't being discussed.

I couldn't get it narrowed down to specific people, so I had to get the number of Sailors on a Typhoon class submarine and multiply by the yearly tourist figures for Amsterdam.  Then I had to pro rate 8 hours a day of work, but add back in time for wanking at the photo processing machine.

That's horrible. I was born in the UK but grew up in the US so i have like a dual accent and don't stand out as much. I have had people tell me they thought i had a speech impediment before they knew i grew up in the US  ;D

The Arabs and Jamaicans have there own areas and community's though and i feel like Americans should have one too, especially since some of you guys have experienced this anti social behavior.

Canadians are the problem. Every time I approach a fellow American and strike up a conversation they turn out to be Canadian.

At a crowded bus stop a couple of years ago I hear an American, and saddled over and asked what part of America they were from and they gave me a cold "Canada" in response and moved away from me.  I think I replied, "Nothing wrong with that!" A couple of the locals actually guffawed.

I had exactly the same experience many years ago while on holiday in Ireland.
