  • You talk loud and don’t shut the fuck up. Yes, you have an opinion on everything. Yes, you think your country’s great. Yes, you think you are great also. Shut up.

    I remember being on holiday in Thailand, visiting a village that very clearly had set aside an area as a market for tourists. The Americans decided to have a conversation between one area and another about heading off to look at the village school or whatever. EVERYBODY ELSE, locals and tourists, could tell this specific area was for tourists, but the USAians just couldn’t read the room and had to loudly talk about it. JFC it was painful to witness.








  • OK. First, FIFA booking out a heap of hotel rooms then dropping them when they realised they won’t be able to scalp them is shitty behaviour, but probably not out of the norm. Raising prices to astronomical heights is also shitty behaviour, but it’s the capitalist nation of the world so what do you expect?

    The elephant in the room that got glossed over with one sentence in the article is: nobody in their right mind wants to visit the USA. The place is a fucking disaster and the chances of a foreigner getting shot, locked up or deported for pretty much no reason is so high you’ve got to be a total fuckwit to want to go there. If I was given a free ticket to the US with spending money included, I’d still be asking for a refund.

    I still hope the Canada and Mexico games are completely sold out though. Watching the juxtaposition of empty “free world” stadia vs full “shit hole country” stadia is going to be glorious.
