Oh, yeah. I know plenty of decent Brits. I just was so shocked, it's one of the first things I think of when I think about my time there, lol. Probably, bc I'm a pervert, but that's neither here nor there. Also, I'm sure it happens here but I've never had it happen to me here so that's why I was so shocked. Shady? Nah, these were "posh" places were one mixed drink costs about 25$ :o

Don't get me wrong, I love London, it's one of my favorite places. I just like to bring that up every chance I get :devil:

LONDON: Britain is the world's 'favourite nation' but its people are the 'most boring,' while the French have the dubious distinction of being the rudest and the Americans are seen as the most ignorant, according to an international poll published on Tuesday.

More than 25,000 people from 35 countries rated Britain tops in a survey that rated nations on their culture, people and tourism potential. Second in the overall top brand list was Switzerland followed by Canada, Italy and Sweden.

But while British citizens were considered to be the most polite and best educated, they were also rated the most boring. The French were seen as the rudest and Americans the most ignorant and ambitious, according to the poll carried out by international marketing company GMI.

Views of countries' popularity as a place to invest in or migrate to were also sought in the poll.

I disagree with that survey.I have had more problems with my fellow Americans than with anyone else.I grew up in a Armenian,Lithuanian,Polish,Laotian,Cambodian,Italian,Portuguese neighbohood and never had a problem with anyone except the so-called "regular Americans."
