Fuck you ROME!!!!!!!!!!
 

after webmaster access my girlfriend and I went to rome for 2 nights.

we get off the plane. they lost our luggage

we get into a cab - supposed to be about $50 - he charges us $120

we get to hotel - hotel confirms he ripped us off.

Hotel tells us they want to relocate us to another hotel 3 miles away. would require cabs to see everything instead of walking. call expedia - they fix it. took an hour.

get into room - it's 1/2 the size they say it was - oh well - it's a bed - no biggie

walk to the collesseum. basically assousted by all the street people -they are super rude. take some pics of the background - one demands I pay him cause he was in the background. I tell him to fuck off, he gets mean. I look him in the eyes in my northern way and nicely say fuck off. He realizes I'm about to tear him to peaces so he walks away.

go for pizza. it's a picture menu. they bring the wrong pizza out. waitress says it's the right one but it has no toppings. serioulsy fucked up - anyway we are starving so we eat it.

back to hotel and book a tour. VERY clear about a convertable bus in english. they say ok, get picked up to goto bus and tour group says convertable bus in english. Get loaded on bus - it's a regular bus and the only english is get on and get off - the rest was german. AND we are at a window with a fucking decal on it advertising the tour group so we can't see fuck all. We bail on this 1/2 way though and walk 3 miles or more back to hotel.

in room for about an hour and suddenly we BOTH get VERY sick. Fod poisioning from the pizza. next 24 hours are HELL - basically loose most of our time in rome due to this.

order water and extra toilet paper from room service - they bring up 4 bottles, no toilat paper. they open one - bottle top opener thing the waiter has. hour later we want the next bottle - there is no bottle opener in the room. we call room service. SHe comes up and opens the next one but says they have no bottle openers to leave. uggggg. finally get more toilet paper.

anyway we leave pissed about the entire country. several days now and I'm STILL fucking sick. I threw up 2 hours ago and direreea every fucking day.

only good thing is i've lost 10 lbs but i was working weights a lot and i think it's pretty much only the muscle i lost.

did i mention i now HATE italy - don't go there

LOL ... sorry to hear that dude..

wow, what a shitty trip, sorry to hear that.

i had the same kind of experience with italy

except the sickness..i couldnt believe how rude they were

weird as italians i nkow in canada are some of the nicest people you will meet

i guess with 30 million tourists a year or so, they dont give a flying fuck

maybe croatia will give them a run for their money and they will shape up

we stayed in a hotel that proudly had about 100 pictures of hitler on their 3rd floor...i couldnt believe it, like he was some kind of hero or something

Sounds worse than my trip to Ensenada where I was accosted by Federalis with AK-47's, and got into a bar fight at Papas & Beer with a dozen Mexicans half my size...

actually, in retrospect, that was a pretty fun trip. :)

Sorry to hear yours was a bummer, dude.

Thats fucked up shit!


Ive encountered the "pay me, im in that pic" guy before.....

Another something for nothing mother fucker!


funny how they think a little intimidation will fork out the bucks cause your "foreign"....

throwing it back obviously makes them realize what a fuckin idiot they are!



You ever get it with girls?

They simply wont leave you alone... I had one girl flip out saying she was going to sue me for taking a shot down a sidewalk in broad daylight...

IM GONNA SUUUUUUE YOU!!!

Great to see the look on their faces when you actually start laying out the law to them and they either drop their jaw or suck their chin so far in it and spin around to walk away in defeat!!



what kinda of pizza? allegedly

Yup..beautiful country, but terrible at reliability and customer service. I've had a few adventures flying thru Rome..

that is one place I don't recommend going without someone from the country.

I'm going there with my girlfriend next year but luckily we are staying with her family there so we won't get ripped off. Hopefully my experience will be better then yours.

I live only 30 minutes away from the Italian border, but I never go there without a friend that is fluent in Italian.
Whenever they see a foreign tourist, they do their best to scam/fuck him.

That's strange...I know 2 people who have been to Rome and had their luggage lost.

Conspiracy?

ROME is not real Italy.

If you want real Italy head north!

:pimp

As Labret used to say on here, "Italians are the hahahahahahas of Europe". (what he said, not me)

:1orglaugh

Rome really sucks, similar experiences here...once they recognize that you are a tourist, they try to milk as much money out of you as possible. Sure, it's always a bit like this in big cities, but not as blatantly.

Heavy people are "huge targets" in tourist spots like Rome. The most likely thought you were American.

If you are thin and do not wear t-shirts, hip-packs, ball caps, and sandals then you tend to blend in much more easily. :2 cents:

I have actually seen gypsies throw their babies at tourists while in Rome. The dumb tourists catch the little fucker in their arms and then other gypsy kids swarm and pick their pockets. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

LOL. I'd drop that baby like a hot potato.

wow that sucksssssssss

wow lmfao I really hope you're kidding :1orglaugh

We had a great time when we shot my Porno Dan's Roman Holiday DVD.

Sorry your experience was not as fun as ours.

It is best to just duck :2 cents:

Maybe Italians just don't like ugly people. When I was there, i had the best vacation ever :)

Italy is an amazing country. You cannot blame Italians for the actions of the bottom feeders who hang around tourist areas. Those people are not Italians for the most part. I am sure even Canada has this problem.

Wow that sounds like a horrible trip, Sorry to hear about that.

Rome is one of the best cities in the world.

#1 You should hire a private driver

#2 Book reservations directly with 5 star hotels

#3 Your driver should escort you to all of the touristy places

#4 If you are a real VIP, you can arrange (and pay for) private tour of the vatican. I think they charged jews more.

yep u gotta roll like a bawler

That could be true

GFY karma biting you in the ass

Sorry to hear that but look at the other side: You will never forget this trip :)

i aways rock out with my cock out and have a blast in Italy. sorry to hear the god were not in your favor.

Sorry to hear that Sleazy, I know how much you were looking forward to this trip:disgust

Hotel, McDonalds, Hotel, Ruin, Church, Hotel, Church, Ruin, McDonalds, Church, etc..........

Pretty much summed up my experience in Rome. Rest of Italy was OK.

Karma, it'll do that to ya.

sorry to hear that bro. hoipe no hookers broke your nose? ;)

rome is full of scammers, 2 years in europe and i have yet to go there, everyone i know that has gone there(including a chief of police) has gotten robbed there.

the First two sum up Sleazy's.

LOL, go to the Uganda, you will loving it :).

Passports are handed out way too easily. There should be a test for minimum competance to travel :)

sounds like what happened to my friend...

I know it sounds retarded, but it's because you are American, it's as simple with that...also mabye a little mix of karma ;)

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

wtffffff? :helpme

Yeah ok your the pussy retard who gets ripped and pays double for a cab but now your the incredible hulk...keep telling yourself that
