[Oliver28778]

It’s not just the French, and it’s not so much a dislike as it is cautious hesitation; many Americans are great, but that’s too often a surprise, because the vocal lot tend to be obnoxious and self-centered. Their favorite topic of conversation is themselves, their conversational pattern is to tie not terribly insightful comments together with vacuous semantic rubbish so as to retain control of the conversation, and their superlative intonations are irritating attempts to make their rather banal comments somehow more convincing or interesting. It becomes understandable when living in America, because one sees that the only way to get anywhere is to get ugly and not let up (e.g. dealing with banks, phone companies, domestic airlines, etc), but it turns out that it doesn’t have to be that way, and the natural attitude that Americans bring with them when travelling makes the average ‘foreigner’ want to hide.
