8 Tourist Poses You Need to Stop Making 

It’s a difficult demon to quit; making clichéd tourist poses and we know that part of you is just saying, come on, it’s just a novelty picture you HAVE to take since you’re there! Well, it’s your grave to dig because you know everyone on Facebook is judging you for that (if you upload it. What’s the point if you don’t?).

So if you’re about to burst your significant-monument-cherry, be savvy about these 8 tourist poses you need to stop making.

#1 Holding up the Leaning tower of Pisa

Dude, at least get your physics right. You have to be further!

Whenever a tourist takes an optical illusion of the Leaning Tower, an angel somewhere loses its wings.

#2 Pinching the Eiffel tower 

Doesn't make you any taller, sorry!

Non, unacceptable.

#3 Doing the dirty with the Washington Monument

If this is your profile picture, you're the #originaldouche.

The original sin can’t compare to this.

#4 Imitating the Statue of Liberty 

Even your SO is bored.

If the Statue of Liberty had tears, we’re sure it would be crying already.

#5 Peeking out of a British phone booth 

Aren't there better things to photograph in London?

Would you like an award for this?

#6 Spewing out of the Merlion 

Wonder what she'd think if she knew that to 'Merlion' is also known to puke.

Or… drinking… spew…

#7 Kissing the sphinx 

Can we get some tongue, at least?

We wouldn’t want to be the victim of so much unwanted affection, would you?

#8 Falling into the Grand Canyon

 

A little part of us wishes you'd actually fall.

Haha, we just fell over laughing, too.
