Basically since I met Sweetie, every chance he gets he comments that Americans are loud. And, unfortunately, this sometimes proves true. Like the time we were having dinner in an upscale restaurant which was still completely empty (it was 7PM - early for dinner by Israeli standards). The hostess seated a table of 3 right next to us - one American and two Israelis. The American was SO LOUD. I could barely think. There was no reason for him to be talking that loudly.
Anyway, Americans are not always loud. I keep trying to tell Sweetie this. But, one day in California we decided to try a local eatery for breakfast. We strolled down to the marina, walked in, and found ourselves in a very small dining area with a very large table of approximately 20 very LOUD Americans. They were so loud that the waitress was clearly also very disturbed by them, and assured us they'd be leaving soon. And they did. Phew. Quiet.
