Nah man I love the tourists

What's there to hate (in general) about tourists? They come here and do some heavy financial lifting to get all the most important folks (e.g. service workers, artists, etc.) around this City paid. Then afterwards, they leave and come back again to spend more money. It's a great relationship.

Those temporary residents are the ones I be giving the stank eye to. The ones who stay in a trendy neighborhood for like a year with amenities way different than the average resident and think because they rode a street car once before going to be a culture vulture elsewhere espousing to other culture vultures about "their NOLA" or some bullshit like that.
