    absolutely not insincere

    yeah I totally agree. ESPECIALLY when you don't know the person, why be so grumpy and rude? lol if you don't like the person, sure, we can all be jerks. but I don't know what I have done to so many Germans to make them so grumpy.

    and what's the harm in saying "thank you," "please," or "sorry" ??? if being civilized, polite and considerate means insincere and phony, then I'd rather be an insincere phony Scheißausländer than "honest" and rude just to fit in.

    I guess misunderstanding applies both ways. I know North Americans are not insincere at all when they smile and they are simply genuinely being nice to others. what's the harm in doing so? the problem is, it almost never happens among Germans. the easiest way for the Germans to process that is to call it insincere.

    by the same token, when Germans seem rude and extremely insensitive, it's simply that's the way they are, naturally. it's hard to figure out the necessity in being mean to others, but that's the comfort zone many Germans share.
