What is it about German tourists that give them such an obnoxious reputation? Could it be how they monopolize everything at the expense of everyone else? Anything 'free' is gone in seconds consumed by Germans who seem to believe it was put there just for them. Arrogant and obnoxiously loud, the average German tourist is overweight, ugly, tattooed and pierced based on the evidence I have seen recently and the women - well - they look more manly than their men. I swear it must be middle aged fashion in some part of Germany for women over 40 to pierce their noses.

But before you think I am anti-German or something let me also point a finger at Brits abroad too. They differ from Germans in two regards - the food they eat and the violence levels they reach after the smallest consumption of alcohol. I saw a family recently in a self serve restaurant - all vastly overweight. Dad was eating chicken and chips, Mum just the chips, kid 1 just the chicken with lashings of ketchup, kid 2 just chips and.... baby of the family was being fed a plate of chips, boiled potato and sweetcorn... very healthy!
