travel
There are many stories of tourists not being prepared for the environment and culture of their travel destination getting into serious trouble.
If you are worried about headbutting someone I'd vote for not going. The local authorities will most often be on the side of the locals in many countries.
If Egypt is your first northern-african/middle-eastern country to visit it might be tough. I'd suggest Jordan or possibly Marocco.
People in Morocco were more exhausting than Cairo in my opinion. Jordan or Oman probably the most relaxed.
Jordan is definitely the easier choice. But interesting! Didn't know Oman is also an easier destination!
Oman was nice. As middle eastern countries go, it was by far the most pleasant of the trip, and I'd put it up there with the best port visits we had.
Thanks for the tip, will have to definitely plan a visit there.
I saw a guy recently wearing both a scowl and a badge that said 'please be kind to me I have autism'. That might work to some degree. Maybe replace 'have autism' with something more appropriate like 'have difficulty restraining myself from physical violence'.
OP is Raven from Snow Crash.
Strong reference, but it makes me feel like my comment was cruel. I didn't mean it as such.
He better watch out for that dentata next time!
It's not that I have a problem with restraint is that if I have to tell a person 3 or 4 times to back off and they keep pushing me into a metaphororical corner I can lash out.
I never had any problems with violence before other than the normal teenager bullshit because I just remove myself from the situation, but I know myself, and I know of I'm encroached on I will probably lash out.
