  1. Guys, I'm not French, but the French-hating posts on this website are
    pretty small-minded (especially as they were right to have serious
    reservations about Iraq, but that's a whole other story....)

    Suggestion: Unless you've actually got off your ass, left the US and
    visited France, I'd suggest people should hold judgement. Very easy to
    criticise from your armchair, especially when your opinions are formed
    from such fantastic bastions of journalism as Faux News...

    Freedom fries my hole. 🙂

  2. Thanks, since I have actually been living in France for the last 8
    years, this
    gives me free rein to blast the French.

    Dumbass,

    This is not a "website," this is a "newsgroup."

    Dumbass,

    I have been to France, and I even know some French people,
    and my expert opinion is that apart from a few politicians and
    rbr lamers, most French people, if a little prideful, are
    intelligent enough not to take flamebait from trained gorillas
    typing on the Internets seriously. You, on the other hand seem
    not to give the French very much credit. I wonder why - a
    painful experience with a baguette? Being dumped at the
    age of seven by some floozy named "Madeline"?

    Ben
    p.s. Now if it was an orangutan, that would be different.
    Orangutans never joke around.

    And its tough to get a good bikefit for an orangutan.

    And other gestures too aparently:

    Or so claims a new guide issued by French tourism officials to help
    foreign tourists understand Parisians with a list of commonly used
    gestures with meanings like "shut up."

    Apparently "shut up" didn't work on Simeoni. I wonder what "pull or
    get dropped" is in french sign language.

    Too small a market. Let them buy custom.

  13. I feel a lot better about ragging on the French since I became one.

    We're some rude motherf***ers.
