My friend, I’ll refer you to map #14, which holds true. There’s also a billion people living south of these maps who I can tell you from experience, make most Americans seem demure.
My point is that there’s a lot of loud people in the world. Really, most of the world is loud and only has an outdoor voice. I can hear my neighbors talking to her grandkids in her yard, 15 meters away, on the other side of a hedge and trees, with all the doors and windows closed in my house. There’s no change when she’s talking to me 1 meter away. I’m convinced it’s that a lot places like parties with deafening loud music and everyone has undiagnosed hearing damage.
Stereotypes sort of rely on the stereotype being at least somewhat unique. Might as well say Americans eat bland food and ignore all the other places that also eat relatively bland food.
However, congratulations on never having been besieged by Russian tourists.

Whomever made that map has never met someone from Amsterdam.
Sure. The post asked specifically about Americans and, perhaps by virtue of living in East Asia, I haven’t run into that many loud Europeans lately.

I met one really drunk Russian guy years ago, but the bar was so loud everyone basically had to yell so I can’t really count it
Fair. If you’ve never had a swarm of pasty-pink round noise and smoke machines basically ruin a day at the beach, count yourself lucky.
