Are there customs that people from other countries do that you can't stand?

I don't see it anymore, but I remember in the seventies when Moroccans came to Holland you'd see those men walking in a mall with their wife a meter behind them, carrying all the bags. We always made fun of it cause my dad was always in a hurry in a mall and would walk meters in front of us.
In France you couldn't eat in a restaurant at 6, you had to wait 'til at least 7. That was annoying.

I used to be annoyed with the Japanese and their cameras (before cell phones came out and now everyone has a camera!) in Chicago, at the zoos, tourist areas! LOL It was crazy. Now everyone takes photos everywhere so it's normal.

Where baths/showers are..... well..... not frequent. Of course, this is an "issue" with some in our culture, too.

When US people are visiting Aussieland they often seem to be unaware at first that we don't use US bills here, it's not "just like Mexico", and they frequently talk too loud. Not exactly a "custom"...just ways,lol.

The Dutch eat way too much cheese, lol. I hate cheese!!!

Not a fan of royalty - British or otherwise - so that applies to any country with a Monarch. For the British - congealed pig's blood...really? Ugh. Yuck.

Any country that implements Sharia law.

Certain sexual customs that certain tribal people have practiced/do practice around the world. I watched a video recently that described (in words) some of these. You don't want to know...revolting.

Never been out of the country, don't no too many foregnors other than the ones my kids have brought in to my life. The only time I have been discriminated against was in the Queen Charlottes where the natives talked right past me. Irl I don't see much of a change.But we may see that soon with Trudeau mannia going the way it is
