Most friendly countries?

[JaiDee]

I missed that line about new yorkers being the friendliest, that IS pretty funny!

 Not sure how americans could make anyones list, buncha miserable, obese whiners if ya' ask me.



{see?}

          I like Czech people also; have had the pleasure of knowing a few....once you get past the language barriers they are way cool  and probably the most friendly of all the ex-commies. No one mentioned Scots?? Who cares if we need sub-titles to understand 'em, they are funny and drink a lot!

I disagree.

Whilst the Americans tend to not make deep life long friendships I have found their unselfish and amiable dispositions a pleasure to be around.

There may be other cultures and countries who are also that way but as I don't understand them (or even like them) then the Yanks will always be my first choice for 'mixing with' socially.

[p4player]

Yes, this is often the case, because they not only can't stand their own countrymen they travel abroad to avoid them. Those guys are typically the best blokes to have a beer with as they understand Americas shortcomings better than the rest of us perceive. The travelling abroad crowd will trip all over all over themselves not to come off as the ugly American...if that makes sense.

Americans can also come in the form of a Canadien. Watch out for those fly under the radar blokes. Notice you don't see them mentioned on these lists to often. They will consider themselves as Americans only when its convienant, but will never tolerate being called a Yank.

Irish, best blokes to drink with or listen to singing late in the evening. They are just so easy going and can find humour in just about anything that comes by. what a fun lot they are.

Scandanavia...Too Stoic! The guys here aren't but they are the exception.

Lets see who haven't I offended. Oh Fins, do you people really drink that street alco 24/7 in the summer when its never dark? Hey, i want to party with you!

Welsh? Fuk off...your Brits with little command of the langauge and an eye for sheep.

Aussie's and Kiwis, busy argueing who has the best looking sheep. You will never admit what the Welsh boast about.

The final ranking of travellors from my travels, which I can only judge by is:

Americans

Dutch

Samoa although I don't like the way they treat their women. Makes Thai men look good.

[JaiDee]

well, as a yank I appreciate the nice comments of course....I guess I have been hanging out at the Wal-Mart too much!

and lived here way too long......

You have met people like pig dogg also, and I am sure many others of a similar ilk ..... people like that will always leave a good impression and they represent our country well.

    I didn't hesitate to put Americans at the top of my list. Generous to a fault is how I would describe most that I met.

Though I didn't find the same level of hospitality in New York. While I was impressed by regular yanks in middle America, there were some in Manhattan who we would have happily run over had they been standing in the road.

It is little wonder that the GFC that has destroyed most of the world's credit & will continue to weigh on financial conditions for years to come, had its genesis in lower Manhattan where the rudest people in the USA go about their dodgy business.

[Beto]

Forget about New York, come to the west, you lovei it.

[pacman]

   How very kind...    

Please send me your address & I will see you in springtime...

pretty true Paccers ,

i suppose seasoned road warriors dont give two shits about the NY natives but i must admit that i was shocked on occasion and i live in in London (where a thick skin comes in handy)...The guy on reception was the most rudest slob i have ever met and the Taxi guy was pestering me for a tip and we had just left the fucking airport...ha ha..

Mind you the Muscovites take some beating for being drenched in everlasting misery...

(pacman @ Sep. 22 2009,07:47) Seamus, standing in your leprechaun suit with a pint of Guiness in each hand, I wouldn't talk to you either...          

pacci , thats the only night of the year I dont wear my little green suit

I am quite sure the wise guy who put Russians as his number one pick was either joking or had never met one!

Miserable fuckers they are, and just one more reason to stay away from Pattaya IMO, as the place is over-run with those goofy, pasty-white grumpy men and their oblivious-to-fashion overweight wife who always have a sour puss on their faces.

Always good for a chuckle when you see some story on the boob tube about some desperate and lonely guy in the states who orders a mail-order bride from the Ukraine or Russia or some similar eastern-euro craphole; don't they know what they are getting themselves into, despite how cute she may be?

Native Vietnamese people are friendly also, but very smart and crafty as well; you must keep your wits around you in that country more than most I have been in, but once you make a few friends there you will see how cool and friendly they can be.

[robbo]

and finally .... the correct anwser....no it was not 1 2 3 or 4 even 5 or any of the others...............it was all the oh so nice thai LB,s you met by chance while you were on vacation in thailand and you just happened to have a few thousand baht in your hand! they were so nice to you you were left with a warm glow after being in their company for a few private hours

[JaiDee]

Yups, the Thais are certainly nice people for the nice part, they don't call it The Land of Smiles for nothing!

But I have met a lot of pure ASSHOLE Thai people, whereas I have never once met a bad Burmese person, they are the most friendly people on earth IMO. I think just by sheer numbers of all the Thai's we meet, we are assured to meet more nice ones than bad ones.

Hell, if I lived in their country since birth I'd be friendly and smiley also!

[allstar88]

1/irish
2/italians
3/spanish

kiwis are wankers and 10 years ago the thais were cool but now are too westernised  

[robbo]

1. a cute LB that puts her cock in my face.
2.anybody else that stays out of my face.
3.anybody else that stays out of my face.

(Lefty @ Sep. 22 2009,01:15) Irish, especially ones from Dublin.

What's wrong with the rest of the country, dublin thinks the rest of the country doesn't exist, so we tell people from dublin to fuck off if they come to the west.

I'm sure the rest of the country is just fine too. I did not say only Dublin, I said especially Dublin. Mostly because the two finest Irish gentlemen I have ever met were both from Dublin.
