- Quotes
Self - Etiquette Consultant: If you're in a restaurant with a tablecloth, you do not eat a hamburger with your fingers. Rather, you take your knife, cut it in half, and eat one half.
Self - Host: Have some self respect, Gloria. If the chef at this world-class restaurant thought his hamburger would be better eaten in halves, he would have *cut the fucking sandwich himself*! You ignorant, self-serving, kill-joy, nit-picking, burger-cutting bitch! Whore! Asshole! Cunt.

Missing the Point
I love this show, but this episode is missing the point of their own topic. They start out trying to refute the idea that Americans are generally more rude than the rest of the world. Being someone that has traveled extensively through Europe, I have noticed that Americans are more rude. I love our country, but we don't really care about other people that we are never going to see again. This show did a good job of explaining why we are more pleasant to be around than we were a hundred years ago but said nothing about how if you go to an American airport it is unlikely that you will find anyone to be very friendly, unlike most European locations.
