I like Russians, as a rule. The aloofness and suspicion is a defensive shell imo, probably developed as a survival mechanism during 500 years of tyranny. Don’t go near them when they’re drinking though.
I have been conversing with Aldo for probably over a decade I'm not desperate to make friends on this site I can't stand most of you . Boasting about being an 18-30 rep in Majorca or some other tourist hell hole for 17 years is nothing to show off about. You amuse me BIG Ern .
I’m quite humble in my innate superiority. Everyone knows the English are best, no point rubbing their noses in it.
I have Russian mates and I won't be drinking with them again. They destroy crazy amounts of booze start fighting and the next day they are mates again. It's a given that punches will be thrown .
So all the people that openly can't stand Saxton or DMD for example must have by your logic personally "met" them ? I wouldn't want to meet you by the way you come across as quite needy.
In fairness my experience is in a drinking environment and they're very punchy and intimindating. Huge country so no doubt most are fine. Just had a few bad experiences and its what comes to mind.
Yeah I think thats bullshit too. Every time I go abroad people are more than happy to chat - some in fact make a point of trying to talk to you - Americans and Germans in particular. French have been known to grumble but not in my experience. Spanish the only ones who you could tell they weren't too keen on you being there.
From my experience the Amercans are the most hated, due to their arrogance and complete laziness to make an effort in another language. Very rude and demanding are words ive heard been used about them.
My point is that you don't know them ffs. Same goes for the others. I'm far from needy tbf, and I don't want to meet you either. Hence, I don't hate you.
So by the sounds of it the Americans Russians and Chinese are the most disliked people to meet on holiday . Bit of a sweeping generalisation but it could be something to do with them being the 3 most dominant countries . There are lots of them and they don't give a **** if you don't like them.
