“Why do I suspect it’s Chinese & Chinese-American tourists doing this? “
Really?
You just insulted my wonderful daughter-in-law of over 20 years.
I went on an Alaska cruise a few years ago and the Chinese (not sure if they were Chinese nationals or Chinese-Americans) would consistently cut in line, they mobbed the buffet, they’d rudely bump into me as if they didn’t see me, they would SPIT on the carpet INSIDE the ship, they smoked inside the ship and when they were told not to do it they lit up as soon as the crew members walked away from them, and then when the trip was over they mobbed all over the luggage pick up area and knocked over other people’s bags in order to get to their own.
Maybe you might want to run this by your daughter-in-law before you get too mad at me. One of my online Chinese friends says these people are ‘peasants’ who do this kind of thing but that it’s not unusual. He also says that China has had classes for their people who go to other countries to teach them about foreign customs.
It’s a problem and being mad at me for believing what I see when I see it does not change the fact of what I’ve seen.
Get a grip! Noone was talking about your lovely DIL! GEESH!!! EVERYONE IS OFFENDED THESE DAYS....even MEN that shoul shrug stuff off.
I was 11 years old before I learned that “damn yankee” was 2 words.
That puts a different slant on things.
