The only country I have been to is Canada and an experience that I remember was when I went into some little store and wanted to buy some gum, the gum cost 1.25 Canadian I gave the guy one US dollar. This was back in the day when the exchange rate was highly favorable towards the dollar. The guy looked at me and said he wouldn't exchange it, I said just keep the dollar, he said no. I stared at him for a little while then said I didn't have anymore money, he said he didn't care so I stared at him some more. After a little while I said fuck and gave him another quarter. As I walked out of the store I gave him a bad look, he said have a nice day, what an asshole.

When stopped by a police officer in lesser traveled tourist cities of China do not be surprised if you are accused of an imaginary infraction and asked to pay your "fine" on the spot. While this may appear to be a case of public corruption, you should treat it as a "gratuity" for the officer's keen sense of perception that you are a foreigner. -Fabian, Miami Beach, Florida
I would put "Good Teeth Beware" on England. Even if you've never seen an orthodontist, they automatically assume anyone with good teeth is a "bloody" American. -Renee, Cincinnati, Ohio
United States: The land of opportunity, if you're an illegal immigrant, rapper, politician, or sports star. -Stuart, Tybee Island, Georgia
If I were going to Mexico, I would put a warning that you will probably get Montezuma's revenge even if you do not drink the water (that happened to my sister) and/or get mugged (that happened to a friend). If you are going to Europe, I would warn that probably everyone hates you, so pretend you are Canadian (that happened to my cousin) and don't get into any political conversations. -Carol, California
