Scottish, Irish, and British folks who weren't exactly the most courteous and polite of people either during my time in china. Does that make it right for me to talk about them like how you talk about Americans?

You make a fair point. I have met plenty of a-holes not just from my own country, the UK, but also the commonwealth countries and the US while in China before.

But I don't think it's fair to say all are arrogant and up their own buttholes, good and bad folk everywhere.

The foreigners who really annoy me are those who don't make any effort to learn chinese, look down on chinese culture/customs/food....seriously, why even bother leaving home only to whinge?
