I?m allergic to sulfites. Years ago, before the spanish market was flooded with the food preservative, as it is now. I walked into a bar and asked for a glass of wine without preservativos. The entire bar laughed so hard and my 12 year old daughter told me what I'd done after we left the bar. The tongue-tying trauma of life in Spain, 08/07/2008 06:24

The last parapraph sums it up nicely. Germans are not superficial, they actually don't like fake "politeness". Fake politeness, as the one of saying"you should come and see me in London" despite not meaning it literatelly just IS NOT politeness. It's plain stupidness and not justified.

That's why I think Germany is the moral winner, if appropriate, of this discussion on German rudeness.
