People who find themselves in a country that is not their native one and act like the locals are in the wrong for speaking their own language and adhering to their laws and customs in their own country. Like charity beggars who approach you unbidden, start jabbering in a foreign language and then look crestfallen when you reply in the local language.

That's inconvenient for tourists who visit the country without knowing the language beforehand, but considering that she was speaking the local language she was not actually in the wrong. Unless it was promised at some point that the staff at the resort all speak English.

Olive Garden tonight! posted:

The real names of food shouldn't be used unless they're caucasian enough. You can eat bulgogi but only if you call it 'k-beef'

So, only Armenian dishes like khash or harissa or Georgian ones like khachapuri or chanakhi can be called by their real names?
