people were just as sour in Paris or any other major european city I've been to with the exception of maybe London.

With the exception of London? London is renown (in the UK) for being impersonal and unfriendly.

No, not unfriendly. Londoners just like to mind their own business.
They know if someone you don't know talks to you, they're from out of town, or just weird. If a tourist talks to you, you talk back politely.

This reminds me of a trip to London, with a friend, when we were 16 year old little punks. The weather was nice, everybody was very polite, but we couldnīt find a single place to sit down and smoke some hash since we met a cop (aka "bobby") at every single damn corner. .
Edit: This thread amazes me with its revelation how weird america is. You arenīt allowed to drink beer in public over there?
