Annoying.

My friend is spanish (but lived here all his life and is as british as they come). When ever we're out it's both hilarous and annoying. We can't order a San Migel beer without it being pronouced perfectly as if you were in spain or you can't order Paella or Chilli con Carne you have to order "pie-eya" and "chilllle con carrrrrrrrne"

lol.

fun times.

I also have a sweedish friend who regularly visits "IK-ay-arh"

There's a pizza restaurant i go to occasionally where most of the waiting staff are eastern European but they always put on an Italian accent... always makes me chuckle.

Who decides what to say in foreign?

For example, these idiots are often heard saying Bar-the-lona or Se-vee-ya. But they never say they are going to Pa-ree or Glas-gee.

So why not say things properly? Is it some kind of reverse snobbery to say things intentionally incorrectly?
