Well, there are some obviously good points to the list. But I think it smacs a little to bit of prejudice for my taste. To much oppinion and too little fact.

Of course the Air space, mayonaise, poodle and Jerry Lewis reasons are enough by themselves...

French are ungrateful bastards, America twice saved their ars from both World Wars, and now they hate Americans. Plus in both World Wars they have switched sides, twice.

DOOD! JUST CALM DOWN! this is a joke. "the french," as an entity, do not hate americans. i have received nothing but hospitality everywhere i have gone in france, which is a lot more than i can say about the us. and as for the ww's, if you were as weak as france and right in the middle of all that crap, you'd be jumping ship, too.

on a lighter note, the french word for grenade is derived from the french word for fart.

hehe.. i went to a bar in france once where the "restroom" was the back wall of the extablishment. there was a door that said "WC" and it led you to the alley. :heh:

there is something to be said for a place where you can just hose down a wall after drinking too much and not have to worry about a cop getting bent out of shape about it...:D

I know you were joking, but I don't know many good French people, and all my friends that went to France, had to pretend Canadians so Franches would talk to them.
And I don't like Franches policy of being nutrual. Not here nor there.

Ummm, I think you are confusing the French with the Swiss. It's kind of hard to be neutral when you are a member of NATO.

Finally, I must say that all the French bashing on this site is pretty much bull****. I guess you folks need something to gripe about, and it's popular to bash on the French, but does that make it right in any way? (BTW, Kenas, this is not just directed at you) Think before you speak.

not that i have any authority whatsoever, but this is my (highly biased) opinion:

we're joking. having a good time. being witty. and you show up with more hatred for another whole group of people. it poops on my parade. i don't like it. i wish you wouldn't do it.

we ARE thinking before we speak. french-bashing is a long-standing joke around here. JOKE. we aren't griping... we're being silly. it's not just pretty much bull**** it IS bull****, and that's why we're all laughing. if you prefer, we could start making fun of blondes or lawyers, but those jokes have pretty much been run into the ground everywhere else... we like our little inside joke. that's all.

Don't you understand??? The French like Jerry Lewis. That's just weird!

Seriously though. You could replace "Elementary School" with just about anything and it still hold up just fine. Graduate School, High School, the Work Place. Face it we are social animals. We will fiollow the herd. Understand it and live with it.
Everyone in the group thinks it's funny because it is funny. It's the context that it is placed in and not the subject matter that is funny. So pull the broomstick out of your ass and move on.

Not at all. It's just that it was interfering with Butch's judgement.

I have already been to sensitivity training. I took my own nail gun, it was a riot! :heh: I wanted to go again, but the school said that I couldn't, they were having a hard time finding staff and couldn't afford the additional medical insurance.
