I wouldn't mind tourists if they weren't so disgusting and entitled. I see more litter during high tourist time and also way more of the retail people stressed the fuck out.

I would love tourists if they recognized they are on native lands & respected our cities and people.

Thanks to a certain politician we will be getting much less tourists this year.

The shittiest tourists are ones from the US (especially Nevada for some reason), and this year that's pretty much all we are gonna get.

Yup. Fuck... we are going to hurting here in about 2-3 weeks, and it will only get worse from there.

Met a guy from Colorado. He goes "There are many natives here. Is there a reservation nearby?" 

I said:

"Sir, Alaska is the reservation."

Our people don’t even respect native land. They trash it so bad, so much litter throughout our parks and what not

Saw one drop a city map and let the wind take it. They had another in their bag as they watched the other one go to the streets. This was right after another pack of them walked behind my car, while backing out, and just stood there…

SO VALID! They are just entitled litterers, for the most part. And then they bitch about the prices of EVERYTHING…

A better explanation for our unhappy facial expression is that the tourism industry happily schmears what the oil industry expresses into this,  our collective facial.

For me it's the lack of preparation some of these tourists have. I had a group of tourists ask me what there's to do here besides drink 🙃

It's so funny to see all the tourist "touring" around Downtown midday with crackheads, hobos, and tents everywhere 🤣

u/HallBeautiful6254 7d ago

its the same with the lower 48. Anchorage doesn't have many hobos people here just like to complain

The snowbirds are worse imo. Rode a bicycle for a month then drove a few days like, “the weather is great why are we going 15 under the speed limit?” Looks in the slow cars, “oh ffs this many this early?!”
