tourist meltdown

There have been occasions when I want to rip into people I consider inconsiderate in my little dictatorial world…these 4 categories ( and yes – they are categories because the same “type” appears in every country ) never failed to develop a tropical storm within me.

  1. the blob who chooses focal point of a tourist attraction to smoke a cigarette, rest, or review something making it impossible for anyone to take a picture without said person in it.
  2. a small group of people who think the perfect spot to discuss their future plans is in the middle of a tourist office doorway blocking the  entrance and exit for everyone else
  3. the self absorbed person who exceeds the grace period for looking at something up close knowing full well there is a line behind them wanting to view it too
  4. the asshole who walks in front of you as you are about to take a picture or is inspired by what your aiming at so rushes to the spot you’re photographing to take a selfie with his ugly girlfriend
