Hey, first post here. I was wondering if anyone else feels the same way about this. One of my biggest travel pet peeves is when people act super disgusted by “tourists” while literally being tourists themselves. It feels like this weird high horse mentality that I’ve never fully understood.

Obviously people who are disrespectful, rude, or completely ignore local customs are a different story. But outside of that, I feel like it’s okay to just… be a tourist sometimes. Go see the popular spots. Take the pictures. Enjoy yourself.

Maybe it’s just a pet peeve of mine because the arrogance of it gets under my skin. Like no one thinks you’re suddenly a local because you skipped the popular places and found some middle-of-nowhere town in another country. Try to be respectful, sure, but you’re traveling too. You don’t have to act like you’ve lived there for 10 years to “do it right” lol.

This was a suggestion by my brother

They are enemies of the people of the world and a plague.

There is no world where these "workers" don't cut genuinely 3 inches shorter than the reference image. There is no world where you can look at your hair immediatly after those IMBECILES pick up their mirror(bourgeous tool of humiliation) and you don't have to fake a smile because "oh, he's just doing his job".

No excellence. I'm done pretending I fight for these people. It makes sense Marx, Lenin, Trotsky and the rest never pointed these out. Have you ever saw their hairstyles? Genuinely. Though I think marx was letting it grow long to avoid them(the enemy).
