What are some things that the culture you belong to (or live in the majority of the time) do or believe in that irritate you?

I just saw a question here on Fluther about whether or not it was a good thing to have signs in different languages in English speaking countries. A lot of people said “no, if they come to our country they should speak our language” and it made me think that I hear that or something along those lines A LOT here in England. It seems to me that too many people who have English as their first language rest on the fact that wherever they go in the world they are likely to get by without having to learn the language because everyone speaks English right?! I’m not saying that if you are going on a week long holiday to Italy you should be fluent in Italian before you get there but at least try while you are ovefr there to learn the language rather than letting everyone speak to you in English because it’s the easiest option.

Of course I am generalizing here but I have seen it so often when visiting other countries.

So, what is it about the people of your culture that irritates youn and don’t be afraid to generalize if you have witnessed it.
