Flip 'em the Bird

Everyone knows when in Rome do as the Romans. This doesn't mean you stop bathing or if you're a woman you stop shaving your armpits. It means you don't rock the boat, you pick up some of their customs and leave some of yours at home. It's always best when traveling to be able to relate to the inhabitants of the country you're in. Now I know it's impossible to master a foreign language quickly, but it doesn't mean you still can't relate to them on another angle. Hand signals for instance are universal. A thumbs up is always good, a thumbs down is always bad, that's elementary my dear reader. However, do we really know how to tell a foreigner to fuck off in their own language? I thought we did too, but we really don't.

Here's a helpful site which details exactly how to tell a foreigner to go take a flying fuck in their own native tongue.
