> our inability to be rude to people

I don't seem to find that hard at all. And I meet many strangers that are rude (not all of them foreigners).

It's true that brits hate complaining in restaurants. I don't think I've ever complained in a restaurant, despite my innate rudeness. But I find it very hard to keep my cool, when I've just listened to 30 minutes of hold music, and the person that picks up is an unhelpful numpty.
