Noisy chatterers, smooching lovebirds, armrest hogs and selfish seat recliners – we hate them all with the utmost passion. But nasty travelers get classified not only by the infuriating things they do on planes. Every now and then a list of the world's most annoying nationalities gets published, stirring as much consenting laughter of those at the receiving end as it does clamor among those who find themselves complete the roll call. Here's 8 that always get the dubious badge of their countries' bad ambassadors, together with 8 reasons why we are ready to turn a blind eye
INDIANS: Indians don't fair well in the politeness stakes as hoteliers all over the world describe them as rudest, most indifferent to local culture and least likely to tip. Local cuisine is also something they will approach with suspicion, and the level of noise they generate is considerably higher than what's on average considered tolerable.

AZEALIA BANKS - VAN VOGUE
Azealia Banks is on the verge of inspiring some excellent Halloween costume ideas with her recent music video fashion. She’s also really obsessed with mermaids, so it comes as no surprise that the Harlem rapper’s new music video for “Van Vogue” finds her swimming around a pool like Daryl Hannah.

The art of sagging
I looked on as he
walked ahead of me. His boxer shorts were showing and it was a really pitiable
sight. Dirty underwear and even messier pants. He walked with a terrible
swagger that made him look as if he's been stabbed at the side and was trying
to stay hard on his feet. Most noticeable, were his boxer shorts as his pants
were almost off to his knees.
No one really knows how SAGGING started. Rumor has it that
it started among prisoners in the United States. Prisoners in the jails of the
U.S. had their belts taken off of them in order to prevent them from using it
to commit suicide. Another story says it was a way to show availability among
gay prisoners. Whatever it was, it should have stayed right there in prison.
Youths and even a few adults have adopted sagging as a modern fashion trend.
Call me whatever you want, but I am absolutely anti-sagging. I believe
underwear is like humility: essential but indecent if it shows. So, I walked up
to this sagging dude and started talking. I asked him why his pants were almost
down to his knees, and he told me he doesn't even care. He said I was lucky
because yesterday, he even had them lower. I wanted to ask him a lot of
questions: especially his age as I was ready to look past his misgivings if he
told me he was 17. You know what they say about being 17 and not being able to
look past Friday evenings. Maybe he was just another exuberant youth; but I so
much doubted that.
The fact remains sagging your pants makes you look
absolutely irresponsible. No one is interested in seeing your underpants. Keep
the sorry things inside and to yourself.
Pull up your pants and earn that respect you crave so much, people!
