a hideous thing @ahideousthing.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Don't all tourist towns resent the tourists? We call tourists "grockles" in Devon, UK, a tourist-heavy location in the summer: I've never researched the origin or background of the word, but it is generally unfavourable, expressing dislike and contempt. 110 0

Scree-am @rampantpiracy.bsky.social · 05/08/2026A funny thing about spending a month in Czechia was that all the happy customer service was concentrated into exactly one man who ran the vegan restaurant in Cesky Krumlov. Everyone else hated your guts as was right and proper. 1181 0

Granite Geek NH @granitegeeknh.bsky.social · 05/08/2026There is nowhere in the world that doesn't resent tourists, nowhere.

Courtney Shannon @cshannonpdx.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I used to live in Durango, CO and the people who worked at the train station gift shop complained about tourists. ???? At least the River guides were like, “Hey, thanks for visiting and doing this so I don’t have to get a real job.” 1130 0

chocolatetarte @chocolatetarte.bsky.social · 05/08/2026i admit to being tired of tourists by the end of the summer. we have tiny, busy sidewalks in much of Downtown Boston, and we don't appreciate influencers with 10 newbury street bags just standing outside on a tiny sidewalk like they are in a cornfield in Nebraska, alone. 261 0
Doug Smith @genejockey57.bsky.social · 05/08/2026When I was young, living near Gettysburg, we tended to resent the "bulletdiggers". They clogged the roads, stopping at every single monument, of which there are over 3000. And they'd come to a dead stop in the Square, because most had never seen a roundabout. And our summer jobs depended on them. 140 0
