We would like to extend a middle finger to so many people we can't possibly name them all... but we'll try. A middle finger for the guy who stole Erin's credit card and spent $4,000 at Toys 'R Us, the waiter in Budapest who tried stealing our passports, all the waiters who tried serving us tap water when tap water was a hazard, Bruce and Greg for being five-star losers, Fil, Prince Ali, Kunstpark, the bar in Schwabing we won't name, the bar in Schwabing we will name: Tapa Tapas, the Grand Bazaar, every taxi driver in Eastern Europe, Meg's bro for not coming to Amsterdam, Javi for not coming to Oktoberfest, Australia - actually two middle fingers for you, Australia, the Fes bus, the tick in the Sahara who poisoned Meg's blood, the weather in Germany for that constant drizzle and last, but certainly not least... the Euro. Euro, you brought so much inflation to Europe that we can never afford to visit the continent again. We're forever doomed to a pathetic life of rereading our weblogs, wishing we were born into royalty.

you seem to be so funcking stupid that it's better when you never visit Europe again. So i would like to thank the huge inflation.
yuors sincerely,
Marko

If a few of us are capable of taking such an amount of blame, being retrospective and try to correct our faults by interpreting this waterfall of insults as an ironical way of indicating how we should improve,.....how good would you be at doing the same ?

Congratulations! I've barely stopped giggling since I stumbled across this site.
Although I'm not a party girl(VERY not a party girl, le sigh), your site and your book has brightened and informed me this early early morning. :)
And may I just say "WOW" to the hate mail? I don't think I've ever seen such a collection of people without senses of humor! It's sad when someone can't take a bit of joking and teasing from someone...
Hell, I regularly joke and ridicule the USA...I don't think you CAN'T after living here all your life...
So when they insult the US...I find it more offensive that the statements are hypocritical than insulting, because, hey, most of it IS true.
I'm living proof of the "fat american" stereotype, although I DO hope I'm not wholly ignorant or stupid. Most of the people I know aren't. Okay, most of the people I hang with aren't. But as for everyone else...I live in Tallahasse FL...which is like a subdivision of Southern Georiga. ;)
It sounds like you had a great time, despite your problems, and it makes me even more eager to begin my first trip to Europe. Although, I really just wanna see some castles. America has no castles...sometimes it's disappointing to be baby nation. Haha.
And, hey, do you think being half-Canadian will give me any credit overseas?
I also wonder if some of the world realizes there's a REASON for the US' rather intra-centric view? The majority of the country lives next to only two others and is stretched far and thin. We have little contact with foreigners outside of the tourist destinations. We've never HAD to develop a great understanding of the outside world.
Yes, many Americans are far too ignorant of life elsewhere on the planet...but sometimes it seems that these elsewheres are pretty damn ignorant of the USA. Maybe not of our history or language, but certainly of the people as a whole.
We may not have been taught detailed history of the world(or if we are, don't recall it), or know several languages, but most are certainly willing to LEARN. We may be ignorant, but we aren't stupid(for the most part).
*takes deep breath* Whew. Sorry for being preachy, but I think it needed to be said amongst all of the hate mail.
Oh, and another bit of hypocracy that's been bothering me...how come it seems to me that a fair portion of the posts on these boards insult american girls for "being easy", and yet all they seem to want from them is sex?
I'm evidence that not all(nor even most)Amercian are easy. I'm one of those rare specimans known as a "twenty-two y.o. virgin", and likely to stay that way for many years. Most of my female friends are also "untouched".
*giggle*
Not to mention, if most were "easy", why is that such a bad thing? It doesn't seem to stop the guys. I think some men forget that it's just as easy to be a so-called slut when you have a penis as when you don't.
Sorry for the ramble, but weird things happen to my brain at 5:30 in the morning. If anyone would care to comment, I'm more than happy to have a healthy debate. :) If anyone cares, my AIM name is "kiyudenchan". I'm not often ON AIM, but occasionally I'll sign in.
With that, I'll bid everyone "ja mata ne". As I was taught in Japanese class, although I don't remember anything else of substance except a few random kanji and how to ask for the toilet.
Um, yeah. Bye all.

The whole thing gave me a laugh from start to finish, us Brits are good at laughing at ourselves, we are used to it, something a few other people could learn maybe. Anyone going to do the guys trip round Europe, if anyone dare print it that is. :)

Funny site.
I always wanted to hear a non-american make fun of americans, and now I know. We're all FAT, MCDONALDS EATING, UGLY, K-MART WEARING COCKSUCKERS that voted for STUPID GEORGE BUSH!
Fucking hilarious.
Maybe you should write some travelogue entries about US cities you've visited and what the men are like there. That way, all the poor maligned Europeans (and denizens of Great Britain, cough) will feel better knowing that you feel the various parts and people of your own country are just as cool/stupid/weird.
Ooh, and how about an entry on Hungary. My girlfriend is hungarian. I tried to get her to laugh at the stuff about Romanian food/guys, but when she saw the name of the site, she started getting suspicious about my intentions in visiting. Oops. :)
