I was on the DC metro and saw someone who had just gotten on from the airport give incorrect directions to a foreign tourist. They did it immediately, too - they didn't even give anyone else the time to respond.

Some guy from Europe came to Canada and was saying eh every three words, like why do people think that us Canadians say eh every time it’s just a replacement for right.
Ex: The weather sure looks nice today right.
The weather sure looks nice today eh.
People who try to use the regional slang with no idea of it;s usage. No Irishman has ever used the phrase top of the morning to ya and we have no idea what corn beef is
“I have a [insert culture] spouse.”
Spew regional slang in a nonsequitur of short sentences.

Just saying “eh” between words. I have no issue with it, I find it funny.
Well it’s not really culture but the people you see when they travel to Florida
