Don't feel alone....
I spent quite a while in Hong Kong, Singapore and associated areas..
There is quite a large group of what we ex-pats used to call "Bloody Brits"
Usually ex-pats working in Business and the Police Force who were 
"obviously" better that the locals...
In Europe, Japanese tourists have a reputation of not tipping and the 
French like the German money but not theior attitudes.. 

I suppose it all depends on what piece of land you're standing on

BTW I was a 'Brit" but have been a 'Yank' for more years that I care to 
admit to  <G>
