throbber Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Venice, didn't see the hype with it at all. Dirty, a bit run down, too many tourists and most things were vastly overpriced. Overpriced yes but it’s a fantastic city to visit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember walking through Amritsar a few year back to get to the Golden Temple thingy. One of the guys I was with had the phone out filming the whole walking experience but just randomly shoving his phone in all sorts of directions at breakneck speed. Afterwards I asked him if his video was any good. "Nah, it was shite, complete waste of time. Too jerky". So not only had he missed out on just enjoying a stroll, he couldn't even look back on the experience. Fucking muppet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also lost count of the amount of tourist attractions I've been to where I've just felt that my enjoyment of it would've been infinitely better if they'd reduced the number of people they crammed in at one time by at least like 25%. 100% this. Arguably the No.1 thing that really, really pisses me off abroad are those that leave those 'love padlocks' on city bridges. There won't have been one in over 500 years of a bridge's existence, and then as soon as one moron adds one, the bridge is falling down within a year. Let's go off to some land, effectively litter the place with some shitty little unsightly thing that the binmen can't remove and then f*** off back home only to reminisce for 5 secs once every two years. C***s the lot of them. Eta: actually, there is no 'arguably' about this. It is indeed the leading example of tourist-related c**tery going.

Bobby Skidmarks Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Who puts a lock on a bridge, for fucks sake. Is graffiting it with a marker pen too good for this generation? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
